Just curious as to what the majority of us think...not that it'll matter anyway. :wink:

Not to get technical but it's spelled "tweak". :lol:

Anyway, I say bring back Rubicon and Edge of the Blade - and keep 'em in there!!

Also, when Perry comes back, they need to play "Raised on Radio" - and yes, I am still maintaining this "wildest dream".

Thanks for reminding me!! I almost forgot about TBF...

When Perry comes back, they need to open up with "Message of Love". "One More" will be played as the first encore song (one more! one more!), just to be ironic.

Not to get technical too but shouldn't it be spelled "heels?" :lol:

I go with the "clamor" for adding TDTWT and WIN!

Just for that I want to start a weatherman90 appreciation thread.

Play EVERYTHING from the “Greatest Hits” DVD, including The Rolie stuff. People will piss in their coke cup, rather than miss all those songs.

I vote for option C, even though it wasn't offered! Leave the setlist alone. The only people who care about anything from "deep in the back catalog" are those who visit websites like this, which represents about 1% of their total concert attendees!

They proably should do a lot of Revelation, but I'd personally rather hear some older gems that rarely/never get played.

:shock: Ya think so? :lol:

In all seriousness though, I'd love to see Rolie return for one tour...they could do another one of those 3 hour shows...first half w/Rolie on keyboards. Wishful thinking...and yea..I know they'll probably never do another tour like Generations...

Ding ding ding. We have a winner. Just keep 4 Revelation songs in the set, the dirty dozen and a surprise or two. Which is pretty much what they've been doing. :D

Revelation is their most successful album in 22 years...That's quite an achievement. I think they should draw more on that success...I'd say 5 or even 6 songs from Revelation would be a happy medium. I realize they have a limited amount of time with only a 95 minute average set on this tour, BUT is the casual fan really all that familiar with Edge of The Blade or Rubicon? Think about that for a minute....

I don't believe Where Were You or Line Of Fire were officially released as singles, but they were definitely concert staples from 1980-82.

Just for the hell of it they should play some of the songs off of disc 2 of Revelation!!! :lol:





And yes, I'm aware of how lame that joke is. But keep in mind, it's Friday, and I've got only 3 hrs left of work.

I honestly can't imagine Arnel being able to do any of the Arrival material properly. Just wouldn't sound right. This isn't a slight against him or anything, just doesn't have the proper voice for it. Again, would LOVE to be proven wrong. And YES, Journey, if any of you are reading this, I am challenging you... to play some songs off Arrival!!! Hell, get Deen to sing if you have to!!! I WANTS ME SOME ARRIVAL LIVE!!!! Hearing "Higher Place" and "Livin' To Do" back in '01 is not enough... and more songs off of TBF too... please?
