Okay, I'm meeting with the boys in a few minutes. But first, I want to make sure I have our collective wishes right. Please verify:
1. We want them to open with a mash-up of No Line, Stingray, Zoo Station and Breathe/Soon.
2. We would like Ultraviolet and HMTMKMKM to both open the encore, but no awkward Muslim women transitions.
3. We hate the Crazy Tonight remix, so start acting your age and get rid of that dancey nonsense... but while you're at it, keep the Crazy Tonight remix, it's a show highlight.
4. Drop all of the tired old standards like New Year's Day, With or Without You, Pride, etc. But make sure you give the casual fans what they want. That song about how "you give yourself away" from Friends. Ya, play that one!
5. Finally, we want new songs. Just not Glastonbury. We want something slower, with more melody. And while you're at it, drop North Star. That thing is a show downer. It doesn't rock enough.
There, does that just about cover it?
Band reaction:
(P.S. I love In a Little While, so don't drop that.)
