This is a follow-up to "A joining of Vision and Reflection."
This time we have the first THREE albums to work with.
Unless otherwise noted, all of the songs will be played in their "original form."
You may notice the absence of a few songs such as "Lifting Shadows" and "The Mirror," but that's because I don't much care for those songs.
I mostly stayed with the ones that I really DO like.
However, you can feel free to re-shuffle, re-arrange, delete and substitute as you see fit.
I want this to be as "interactive" as possible.
Awakening the Gathering-
Set 1:
1) Lie.
Start with something to get the audience pumped. IF we can get James to SING it right!
2) Learning to Live.
A strange place for this song, I know. But when I played it back, it sounded pretty good in this order.
3) Erotomania.
Because it's Erotomania!
4) Light Fuse and Get Away.
Yes. I know. A lot of people probably think it's "sacrilege" to break up "A Mind Beside Itself" like this, but again, it sounded good.
Also again: it's good to break up the monotony.
5) Voices.
Full-length version, as in the "LiveTime" style.
6) Surrounded.
7) A Fortune in Lies.
8) Under a Glass Moon.
9) The Silent Man.
"Electric" version, with the guitar and piano solos, done in the "L.S.F. New York" style
10) Take the Time.
Done in the "LiveTime" style, with the "Freebird Jam" at the end.
Set 2:
1) Innocence Faded.
2) Metropolis.
3) Only a Matter of Time.
Not much to say about these three songs. They are what they are.
Maybe the next three songs could be done acoustically;
4) Space-Dye Vest.
I thought it should be included, even if it never was before the "Along for the Ride " tour.
5) Wait for Sleep.
6) Another Day.
Even if they didn't do this song "unplugged" it would be interesting to see if they could work out an arrangement of it without the sax.
Which also means the "synth sax." Just to see how it would sound without the "sax sound."
7) Status Seeker.
A lot of people love this song, and it fits in time-wise.
8) Scarred
9) 6:00
Rounding off with my two favorite "Awake" songs
Encore:
10) The Killing hand.
Done in "Marquee" style
11) Pull Me Under.
