Magic Tour Setlist : lame ??!!

Did the band planned to add at least one or two another songs to the setlist of the Magic tour? I know they always played the same songlist with a slight variations like KYA once.

But if they planned to add more songs, which were those ones?

Mmmmm... nobody can answer?

KYA and Dragon attack were in some rehersals, during the Magic tour.
I believe one of the guys that worked with setting up the equip said something about when the band 1st met up for the Magic tour to reherse there was quite a long list of songs, around 40, and was brought down and changed quite a lot before the actual start of the tour.

Thank you wstüssyb

Liar? Yes.

Immigrant Song? No.

I think that magic tour was their best. And Knebworth was top class in everything, sound, voice, everything. And by that time Freddie was 40 years and probably he already knew about is ilness. I sometimes feel depressed about little things, and really feel that i don`t want to get out of bed. This guy knew about aids, and instead of depression, he went along to make that wonderfull tour, allways smiling to the fans. Incredible, i trully admire Freddie for it!!

And he probably knew that the Magic tour would be his last, so that might be a reason to make something like a Gratest Hits tour, instead of Kind of magic stuff.
But in the end it worked out very well!!!

Personally, I don't count "One Vision" as a AKOM track, because it had been issued as a single many months before the album's release - like "Save Me" on "The Game" or "Under Pressure" on "Hot Space", they added this song to the album to have stronger material on it.
So, for me, there were only 3 songs from AKOM played on the Magic Tour (AKOM, WWTLF and FWBF) and it shows a lot of things! When a world-famous band plays very few new songs on stage, it means the band isn't really proud of its new album (see the Rolling Stones with every album since... oh, I dunno when!).
Anyway, a song which really should have been played live on this tour is "Princes Of The Universe". It would have been a great addition to the setlist, but I think Freddie didn't feel his voice was strong enough to sing it at every show...
Apart from this, the song selection was OK for me (good mix of old and new material), but rather boring because of this never-changing setlist.

im my opinion, i love the magic tour better than the works, for me it goes Magic, Hot Space, Works etc etc, only cos songs such as Ga Ga, Under Pressure were performed what i thought was the best way possible, but from what iv got as boots so far i think think Budapest rocked! excellent show, but Wembley sucked ass! i honestly dont like Wembley, Knebowrth i liked, Berlin iv yet to hear (downloading) but i think Manhiem and Vienna were some of the best in my honest opinion. Wembley though, nah!

Plant had the opportunity to retaliate when he butchered Innuendo at the FMT !

But then the both these songs are very demanding

Well he butched double, take CLTCL...

There's a difference between Plant and Freddie, Freddie could have done a better version than that one but he didn't... dunno why. Plant at that time (1992) couldn't. Plant WAS a great singer, not anymore.

Yeah PLANT could sing very good, but after Bonham's dead led Zep wasn't Led Zep anymore.
And apart from that Plant's performance made me think of nasty old men who didn't remember their age nor that the sixties have ended.

I think you're being a little hard on the guy ! Sure he can't sing like he used to in the late 60's - 70's, but he's still a great singer, and CLTCL wasn't so bad IMHO. And along with Daltrey and Bowie, he was among the real rock legends on stage on that day. Not that I dislike Paul Young, Def Leppard and Lisa Stansfield, but you know...

I dunno- I LOVBED Crazy Little Thing... He fucked up INNUENDO big time, but I really liked Crazy.. It was different- and taht was the point...

I thought the setlist was crying out for older songs. This would have been mine.
