Munich today

I'm now leaving for the Olympiahalle and I'm really excited!!!!
CU there!!

Best of luck everyone!

Enjoy it!

Setlist has not changed :-(...

I really do not understand why should they change it - it is a very good one as it is.

ofcourse they don't change the setlist.

You really think they have had ANY time since march 28 to rehearse new songs?

Well, they actually said they will do it...

then stop playing new songs during soundcheck...

Brian played a snippet of White Man before Fat Bottomed Girls. The show was fantastic, really great!

Nice! Maybe that's a hint of what's to come.

I've said from the start that White Man is a song that would suit Paul's voice perfectly.

I hope they play it!

Songs that cater to Paul's strengths like White Man would go that much further toward's the hardcore fan's acceptance of him.
White Man would blow people away.

Brian has played a snippet of White Man before FBG since Brixton. The official download (from Paris, if I remember correclty) has it as well. I would love to hear the whole White Man live, but I don't think it is going to happen.

It'S just a little fooling around with the guitar... exactly like the LIAR chords before Tear it up during the Magic tour (I suppose anyway)

Yes, Brian always plays part of White Man before Fat Bottomed Girls. Just like on his AW tour.

In Munich they rehearsed only very briefly and they still played Another One Bites The Dust on the soundcheck! So don't tell me they don't remember old songs or that they don't have time to rehearse them.

They probably have good reasons not to mess around with the setlist too much. I can imagine that they are just wanted to get comfortable with the current setlist before adding other songs. Paul's throat infection probably has something to do with it as well.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the current setlist, and I'm looking forward to hearing the songs in Antwerp, but, you know, a little surprise here and there would be nice. Like the people at Pesaro got a little piece of Long Away, it does make you feel special if you were there.

I went early to the venue to get the first row and I was able to listen to the sound check as thanks to the way the Olympiahalle is designed it is very easy to hear from the outside. Anyway, they played a complete version of Another One Bites the Dust minus vocals (about 3 minutes very well reharsed and with a great and original guitar solo at the end) plus a minute of Dragon Attack, then usual guitar solo and Say its not true. So I am hopeful that we will get AOBTD at least in the open air leg, or maybe by the time they reach Britain.
By the way, I love the setlist as it is now, it will be perfect if Feel Like Making Love is reintroduced.
Just one month for Belfast .......

I was somehow annoyed by the sound, but I think you can't do much about it in Olympiahalle. It was not designed for concerts.
I really liked PR singing Reaching Out (just before the wall of sound started to build up).
RT obviously doesn't play the 16th notes on HiHat in "Radio Gaga" anymore.
