From another thread:
I just came across the band's latest video update on Facebook. And, I could NOT be any happier with the news of Mike being back in charge of the setlists. This was one of the biggest questions I had about his return. Would he take over that responsibility again or would we continue with the mainly static setlists? I'm dying to see what he comes up with to celebrate their 40th anniversary. Which Mangini songs will he include? The US leg of this tour cannot come soon enough!!! 
I'm glad this info is out there now. I was aware of this through private channels, and it was sort of awkward having to tiptoe around this issue in connection with setlist discussions and some questions that have been asked that I could not really answer without implying that I knew this.
So, how that relates to this thread is: I have done these sorts of polls in the past, as some of you know, and I have shared that info with the band. Just after I started this thread, I was informed that Mike is going to be doing the set lists again. So, because of the somewhat delicate relationship between this forum and Mike, I am holding off on passing the list along to them until I can talk to Mike personally, which will likely not be until sometime during the tour. So, as has been true in the past, the band will see this list. But not as early as I originally planned. But regardless of whether this list can be taken into account on the first legs of the tour, I can almost guarantee that Mike will not forget about it. And as much as he loves the fans and tries to be in tune with what he thinks the fans want, I would be very surprised if he did not make a conscious effort to include things from it in the future.
