You figure he'll want to include 3-5 songs from Traces, his other solo hits, and Journey's bigger hits that are more within his range nowadays. Here's what I envisioned:
No Erasin
Sun Shines Gray
Girl Can't Help It
Lights
When You Love A Woman
Oh Sherrie
Open Arms
Missing You
Foolish Heart
No More Cryin
Easy To Love
I’ll Be Alright Without You
Wheel In The Sky
Any Way You Want It
Don't Stop Believin
Encore:
Separate Ways
Faithfully
What does your set look like?

Killer set list. I'd pay good money to see that.

Great setlist and if he could pull off Separate Ways would be frosting on the cake,
like said before with all the background vocals (his own), hes gonna need a choir behind him.
think he will "dedicate" lights to Schon?

Really like the fact that you included the ROR songs "Girl Cant Help It" and "Ill Be Alright Without You." Two of my favorites.
Also, "When you love a Woman" is a great one. Should always be in the setlist.
"I can only answer that question with the truth -- that I love going forward," he says. "I love going to the edge of what's next."
Perry claims to feel no bitterness toward anyone in the band, even though he’s seen the members only twice, and briefly at that, in the past 20 years, and has rebuffed attempts to reconnect on a social level. Guitarist Neal Schon seems desperate for some sort of reconciliation and often tells interviewers he wants to create new music with Perry — not even necessarily for Journey. Schon has heard that Perry frequents his favorite coffee shop, and the guitarist hopes to run into the singer there. Pressed on this,
Perry says he can’t imagine working with Schon in any capacity or even re-establishing the friendship.
“I’m not sure that’s possible without stirring up hopes of a reunion,” he says. “Please listen to me. I left the band 31 fucking years ago, my friend. You can still love someone, but not want to work with them. And if they only love you because they want to work with you, that doesn’t feel good to me.”

More importantly, on Perry's GMG interview he was asked if he'd ever consider reuniting with Journey. His answer:"I can only answer that question with the truth -- that I love going forward," he says. "I love going to the edge of what's next."
In his Rollingstone interview, he's even more direct.Perry claims to feel no bitterness toward anyone in the band, even though he’s seen the members only twice, and briefly at that, in the past 20 years, and has rebuffed attempts to reconnect on a social level.

For Perry...Schon is THE PAST. That means Journey is the past. He's done with both.
He also knows diehard, "Perry is Journey" fans will want the over-the-top Journey production/vocals of the records... But I think Perry will not do that. He won't make Journey songs the centerpiece of his shows. He'll want his new music to be that. The question is how to do them in a way that respects the legacy he wants to preserve, fits his voice now, and moves everyone forward.
Instead, I could see him having an acoustic segment in the middle of his set where he does Open Arms/Faithfully/etc., arranged in a way that honors those songs and his time in Journey... and in an acoustic segment they are properly respected, yet put in their proper place, in the past. This effectively and respectfully forces and moves his fans forward, to what's next... a Perry that is back, but not going back to Journey.
The other thing is that Traces is Perry keeping a promise he made to Kellie. Traces is for Perry and Kellie... not the fans. NOT him finally hearing and conceding to his fans imploring him to return. If that were the case.. he would have done so looooong ago... people need to wrap their skulls around that.
And at 70 years old, there's a good likelihood Traces is a "one and done" deal for Perry.
People need to get OK with that.
