Perfect concert opener....Faith In The Heartland....

Postby OpeningAct » Sat Oct 22, 2005 6:31 am

Well it's official, Generations has grown on me...LOVE IT!!!! :wink:
Having said that, IMO, Faith In The Heartland, with an extended introduction (BTW....which sounds a lot like ASIA) would be the perfect concert opener. The song really rocks.
Place In The Heart would also make a strong opener.
Generations (the song) could be a huge hit if it got some airplay and :wink: Believe (If you listen to Neal's solo it has a little REO-Gary Richrath feel to it...not a lot, but you can definitely hear it) is the sleeper hit of the CD...great tune. :wink:

They used "Faith in the Heartland" to open the second set at the Irvine concert back in June, and it was great. Alas, it's now a mid-set tune and the intro is left out....

It NEEDS it's buit in/built up intro. That makes it huge..The only problem is no one will know it when it's played, that's why it will never be an opener..

I agree Deano...another negative with releasing the CD so far into the tour.

And that was magnificent at Irvine with that sort of flying video and the uplifting sound of Faith in the Heartland. It still reminds me of U2's It's a Beautiful Day. Irvine was the first time I heard Faith and that placement worked for me. It's a fabulous song. I think it should have been their single, IMHO.

Yes, it should be. In fact, it should be one of four singles..Sadly, none will come to fruition. LAwoman, I was there too. Was the intro included? I do remember the video..It was a crazy flying scene, then switched to a busy freeway...
