Hi, long time no see...
I just can't understand why the band are leaving arguably the strongest tunes of SOI out of the setlist. I was watching the Paris concert and it's clear that the new songs are the weak spots of the show. They got two great live songs, California and Volcano. Then there is this intriguing, interesting tune in the form of Sleep like a Baby, and a possible crowd lifting one in Reach me Now, with a very nice beat and a sing along chorus. A full band, electric version of Breaking Wave would be much better live. Why leave them out??? I just dont get it. Normally new songs get a cold reaction with the crowd, specially when you have really epic songs like Streets, Bullet the Blue Sky and Until the end of the World in your repertoire. Its tough to compete with those. So bring the A game of your new record guys.
I have a taste of unfulfilled potential about this tour. They have a good, rejuvenated album on their hands, and they play its most conservative, downbeat songs on this new tour. Why, since its almost too obvious that those songs i mentioned above would transform the show...
