Hmmm, I wasn't aware that Back to the Garden was skipped at the One show.
And in true "they still suck ass" fashion, Radiant is advertising on FB that tickets go on sale on their site tomorrow, but when you go to their site, nothing shows up. I hate to keep beating this drum, but it really is sad how awful Radiant Records is. They suck.
I've been feeling that way more and more lately, and unless I know when a pre-order is going to go live (like, exact day and time, with a lot of advanced notice), I won't be pre-ordering from them anymore. Case in point - Morsefest 2015's pre-orders went live just hours after an email and Facebook post, or maybe less than a day after an email - I'm not sure, I just know it slipped by me in the previous day - and I missed out on the whole "First 100" thing that they usually do. I waited a few weeks to order it, but when I did, I got it from Amazon.com and it was down to 29.99, and with free Prime shipping, that's not bad for a 4CD/2DVD set. I think I have enough things signed by Neal anyway, I can probably let other fans get their signed albums from here on out.
But yes, for one reason or another, "Back To The Garden" was omitted from the One show at the first Morsefest, and I don't think an explanation was ever given as to why, which is a shame, because they went through the trouble of doing the other 10 songs. Hopefully they play both shorter songs of Disc 2 from T2, though, as I do really enjoyable. They're nice breathers after the immense T2 and before the epic "Seeds Of Gold".
Ideally, Night 1 of Morsefest 2017 would look like this:
Set 1 - All of Testimony 2 (fits perfectly on 1 CD)
Set 2 - Absolute Beginner, Supernatural, Seeds Of Gold, Lifeline, So Many Roads (adds up to just over 79 minutes, perfect for a 2nd disc)
Encore - The Water (maybe?) - Looking back at Morsefest 2014 and 2015, they played "The Light" and "Go The Way You Go" respectively, so what's next?...
Of course, Night 2 would be TSOAD in its entirety, so we already know what sets 1 and 2 would be like, but the encore will likely contain at least "Agenda" and probably "The Call", though I wouldn't mind them tossing out "Doomsday Destiny" as well, just to get the last TGE song out there.
