UK Headline Shows

Post by bigbradwolf » Wed Sep 30, 2015 5:12 pm

I know the setlist will follow a similar path to the current tour he's on but does anyone think he will throw in the new tracks off the HV album? Raise The Dead, Dead Drunk Friends.

No doubt there will be a couple of curve balls in there from the last few headline shows.

What's everyone hoping for?

Same as last couple of years.

I am sure some of the people here are in the know. They are most likely not in the liberty to discuss such things which is completely understandable.

Purely speculation on my part but I would be surprised if there were many changes to what has been the setlist for past years.

I would imagine there will be a few slight alterations to the last time he played here. i.e. Black Widow seems to be the opener lately and Wicked Young Man seems to have returned.

Saturday in Evansville, "The Black Widow" was the opener, and "Go To Hell" had replaced "Welcome To My Nightmare." And that was just in the abbreviated set opening for Motley Crue.

Yes, at least they have thought about it. If you actually compare the last tour we had with this set there are quite a few differences I think.
Personally was hoping for RTD as well, maybe as opener. Who knows, still time.

Whilst there are changes, the songs that aren't in here Caffeine and He's Back I'm gutted have been dropped. Loved The Congregation as well.
I'm hoping that with the week off they'll use a couple of days to rehearse Raise The Dead and maybe a couple of other surprises.
Lost in America is one track that isn't a personal favourite of mine.

Any feedback on merch?

Shirts any good? Anything unusual?

I think I've only bought 4-5 shirts out of 15 gigs as I'm never that keen on the designs :(

The merchandise was pretty poor at Plymouth, very little on offer (although they did have some of the latest Bobblehead designs). There was also some signed SDAC DVD's (£35) the money clip with bills (£10) and the panda bears. Other than that, just clothing I think.

Alice's merchandise has never been great, his support act has a much better online store.

The only shirts I've really loved so far were the Killer calendar one (from way back) and the Love It to Death baseball jersey a few years ago (and that was too small).

If they have signed BDs I'll buy one of them, but not a DVD (I don't live in a cave). I do fancy the money clip :)

Seriously, who buys those bears?

Cheers!

Swindon what a horrible venue a bloody gymnasium no natural acoustics, no history a cultural vacuum.

Why they couldn't have played Glasgow or Edinburgh instead with no Crue support shows there ceases to amaze.

Absolutely,

When I saw the tour schedule I was convinced that he would play in Scotland tonight, Saturday

oh well maybe we're to get a complete new show in 2016!

They do seem to be inexplicably popular.

From steven_crayn:
"Why they couldn't have played Glasgow or Edinburgh instead with no Crue support shows there ceases to amaze."

As Si (I think) pointed out, sometimes there are restrictions on which shows can be played and where if you're supporting someone else, so that might be the reason.
