Ok, now I have to obsessively check this thread tonight to find out if there is a Set B, and if there is, will Set A or B be played tonight :lol
-
Count me in as a part of the obsessively checking group.
-
Thirded.
-
Well, it doesn't look like we have a forum member attending, so we might have to wait for setlist.fm :(
-
i obsessively check setlist.fm after every concert during the tours just to know which set list ill get.

Found this on twitter

No rotation on this leg? Doesn't really bug me
-
or theyre just giving this an A set and counting the festival gig in the rotations, just without the B set..

So wait...was "Wait For Sleep" played the other night or not?? It's not on this set list.

Yeah, I don't think it was. Someone at the Rochester show said that they played Wait For Sleep by accident (they hadn't). Shame really, I recall that they played Wait For Sleep and Surrounded back to back years ago (Images and Words tour I think), and it'd be a cool thing to bring back. Oh well.
-
The setlist was the same as in the Rochester show. Great show last night. Alsthough the theater was only about a third full. I dont understand it being a Sunday show. It seems this show was under everyones radar.

Interesting to see no set rotation. I was hoping to get Outcry (rotated with BAI) for the Cleveland show, but it doesn't seem likely.

Great video.

Indeed. Too bad the song is not Metropolis, LnF or TITL...
-
^ That is an awesome video. Love JP's expressions at the beginning of the video.
-
Yeah! I laughed quite hard when he stuck out his tongue :rollin Loved all those eye contacts with the camera, also, that's a veeery rare happening when it comes to bootlegs!
-
Great video, too bad MM's hihat has almost the same sound both opened and closed :sadpanda:
-
Very strange that there's been no rotation yet. I admit I would be kind of bummed to see the same set twice. I want at least a little bit of variety. :(

Same for the Chicago show. I also didn't get to hear beneath the surface and was hoping they'd put that in
-
Yeah, it does seem odd, but wasteland pointed out in another thread that they didn't rotate on the Asian tour either. :(
-

JLB sounds excellent on 6:00. I like the things he adds to it nowadays
-

It's understandable for the Asian/European tour to not rotate sets. But when you're playing a bunch of shows right around the same general area, it's more incentive for people to go more than once if they switch it up a little bit.
I mean, hell. They rotated setlists on the last tour, and it was fine.

I just have to say, JLB has improved since the European leg. And that's something I didn't think possible beforehand.
-
Also, it's nice to see a band member wear something other than a black shirt. :lol
-

Same here. They aren't a huge deviation but are relatively subtle that makes each performance a tad unique from the others.
i also love that it doesn't seem like he is being restrained and walks about the stage freely and participates in a little banter...of course I don't want to get into another speculation about why that is :lol
-
Woah woah woah! Did JLB record some new backing vocals for WIMH (by that I mean, replacing MP's vocals).
Around 52 seconds in that video, the backing vocals sound totally different than on the studio version ("waging the war inside my head").
If that was JP, that was an awesome vocal moment for him, because the rasp at the end sounded just like James.
-
I'm pretty sure that's JP. That was amazing. He does great on TDEN too.
Man, JP has some great backing vocals.

Yeah, I think so. Right before the chorus, he goes over to the mic. Plus, if you keep watching, he is actually in frame on parts of the second chorus and you can see him singing it. (plus, it sounds like him)

This might be a long shot, but I have a few theories why there hasn't been any rotation thus far:
1) The first three shows weren't really close to the next show. US -> Canada -> US, i believe. Which means they could just be playing the same set because it is easier for those couple shows and the shows are not close to each other.
2) The Crimson Projekct hasn't even joined them on the tour yet (until tomorrow), so the "tour" hasn't really begun. They may start rotating either tomorrow in Columbus (or play the same set tomorrow and start rotating on Thursday in Cleveland).
3) They could have been using the sound checks of these first three shows to rehearse the rotating songs a bit more while playing the current set songs now a lot in order to start rotation when The Crimson Projekct joins the tour.
In other words, I wouldn't be too worried about any rotation problems until at least after the Cleveland show on Thursday. If they haven't rotated by then, I would be upset about it since they did it last tour and since those two shows are EXTREMELY close to each other. I believe that is when we will see some setlist rotation show up.
-
Maybe the drum solo will return too.
They didn't play in Minnesota last time around so I haven't seen it yet. I know others don't want a solo, but I kind of want to see it

Fellas who're concerned about the rotating set lists; are you concerned cause you're going to more than one show? or is that you don't like this set list? I can't think of another reason.

I just would be happier if they played some additional other encores on different dates. Learning To Live comes to mind. The setlist is very good, but I that at least the last should change randomly every night, to keep a minimum degree of surprise for the audience. :)

I think people are mostly concerned about Robert Trujillo showing up and making a guest appearance.

Yes, I am seeing DT 3 consecutives days in a row. if it were spaced out maybe a lack of Variety wouldnt be so bad, but Sunday, Monday, Tuesday...

I am only concerned a bit because I am going to two shows, which are back-to-back, so I really expect to see some rotation (and the two shows are a two hour drive apart). I'm seeing them tomorrow in Columbus and then Thursday in Cleveland.

Well, most likely you will get the first rotation of the tour! Anyways, happy birthday :omg:

Make sure to chime in with the Columbus setlist! I'm dying to know if they are gonna rotate, and when it will start (Columbus or Cleveland).
I don't know if I would be happy or sad to not get Set A. Depends how good Set B is, and what songs are rotated.
-
Very interesting hearing the pre-recorded backup vocals on LNF.

As soon as I get back home from the show tomorrow (about a 40 min drive from Columbus), I will make sure to post the setlist in the appropriate thread. So people can expect it to be posted definitely before midnight.

That's what I'm hoping for, and thank you very much! :)

I'd rather it were him than any of the other scumbags in metallica... ST for life :metal

I'm concerned because they are playing a few of the same songs they played in Chicago the last time through. I was bummed because I didnt get to hear Beneath the Surface and Outcry which are two of my favs from the album. At the same time I am stoked to hear LNF, Bridges is always a great song, I have never got to hear ROAE, BAI is a great song even though I'd rather hear something in its place since they played it last time in Chicago, 6:00 rules, the Six Degrees songs are underwhelming though and....thats it
-
All that makes sense, I'm going to two back to back shows with a long drive myself.

Trujillo wouldn't survive Mangini but I'd like to see him try!
-
I saw this one. I also saw them in Rochester on the 15th. I loved both shows. Rochester was by 4th time seeing them and Artpark was my 5th seeing them. Just incase anyone doubts Mangini, don't, you will be blown away when you see him.

Looks like they're playing all of 3 songs that they played in Chicago last time. :yeahright
That's not bad, man.
But I would be bummed for missing out on Outcry, that's for sure.

I'm not concerned about the setlist as I'm sure it'll be fine, but I'm also not catching multiple shows with them anymore because of it. Not interested in the expenditure of seeing the exact same show over consecutive nights.

Well there is one or two more. On the Back of Angels but I'm not angered to the point of obsessing. I am also not trying to defend MP here because I have been as critical as anybody and am perfectly happy with the current lineup for years to come, but one great thing was that he tried to make sure there weren't many repeats from city to city. That policy also left a lot of people disappointed because they had to reason that had they drove X amount of miles more they would have gotten a better setlist.
I just wish, this being a new leg of the tour and them playing in the same city, that they would switch it up a bit more ESPECIALLY considering their catalog is so huge.
That being said, I am still quite happy with this setlist, the lineup, the stage show, the album, etc. etc. etc.
-
I get wanting to hear other great songs you like, but I am always amused when someone complains, "I saw that song the last time," in reference to something like Learning to Live, as if it is a tragedy to see a song that great more than once live. :lol
-
I'm disappointed that I won't get to see BTS or Outcry, but the Chicago show will be my first DT show. Everything will be new! I might as well also be disappointed that I'll never see ACOS, 8vm, etc.

i really don't think that's JP. i saw him walk up to the mic, but maybe he's mimicking the lines the same way lifeson does in subdivisions. that "heeeeeeeeead" sounds just like JLB.
-
^ Agreed, there is just no way JP did that.
-
Yeah! I laughed quite hard when he stuck out his tongue :rollin Loved all those eye contacts with the camera, also, that's a veeery rare happening when it comes to bootlegs!
You might not believe me, but he made that face directly at me since I was making a crazy face at him. I'm super stoked to see it made it into this video!
-
^ Agreed, there is just no way JP did that.
I was there, and JP walked up to the mic and delivered those backup vocals. He has improved drastically in that department.
-
please re-read my post. it doesn't matter how good he's gotten, he's not going to sound like labrie.

Okay. Well, who am I to argue. You guys obiously have insight into JP's singing ability that goes far beyond what is proven by video and people's own ears. Keep fighting the good fight. :tup
-
Hey hey, no need for that. Just putting my opinion forward. I'm honestly sure it was JP, but it certainly does not sound like him. It will be quite easy to tell once more vids of WIMH surface.
I just can't believe how much better his backing vocals are now than they used to be.
EDIT: I'll be completely honest, I just remembered they were doing the WIMH/TTTSTA combo in Asia. I'll watch some videos.
-
^ Agreed, there is just no way JP did that.
He did it at the Columbus show last night.
-
Glad to be proven wrong. Simply means he is getting pretty good! :tup
