There's something new in the middle here. Is it the demo version of Hollow Years?

Yup- it is! Awesome!
Why are they playing their demos? We'll have now some "Take The Time" demo too or "You Not Me" or "Take Away My Pain"? "Hollow Years" was correctly edited... get over it...
It has nothing to do with the quality of the demo or the finished song. It has to do with giving something new and special to the fans that see them live.

It's their music.  Get over it.  And frankly, the demo for Take Away My Pain slays the album version.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Fully agreed. The demo version is so much more heartfelt. It just has that sort of atmosphere that the studio version couldn't capture well.

I am surprised the set list is so similar to the last years PN.  I assume this is only because they didn't release the new album and they didn't play these songs in Europe last year and that the set list will change a lot when PN comes to the U.S.A.?

Dammit, the studio version of Hollow Years is better than the original.  :sadpanda:

i tend to agree with that. it just feels better to me. the pre-chorus in the demo feels like too much tension to me.

I agree that the album version of Hollow Years is more concise, but still, the song is pretty bland.

Nice. JLB is really singing great this tour. I really hope they do a big DVD this tour to shut up the unbelievers. Shame they skip the high verse.

Hell yeah. His pitch is great, and he's trying for the notes spot on rather than using vibrato, except when it's necessary, and it's not too wide. Sounding the best I've heard him for a long time.

Which is weird, considering they played it on PN08.

At the expense of a 50 second verse?


Either way, this guy has most of the concert up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eklIclCpEsc&feature=channel_page

Very nice indeed!

He slides a bit into it, but when he has the note, he never lets go! Wonderful pitching.

Well of course it's their music. Even if they play that version here I would still go insane... but that's not the way I want them to be "giving more stuff" to their fans.

Dude, of course they did!  I wouldn't be surprised if they never played that verse live again.
