Hopefully a change in the setlist!
It’s all been quite dull after “Touring the Angel”.
I would pay a full ticket price just to hear “Puppets”, “People Are People”, “Told You So”, “Martyr” live.
Set list has gotten very weird over the course of the tour. Last few shows they have played five songs from Ultra! Go figure.
Martyr would be awesome, but I’m pretty sure they’ll never play PAP live.
I think there are really only a few pre-1986 songs that you could possibly expect to hear them play live: “Everything Counts”, “Somebody”, “Shake the Disease” and “Just Can’t Get Enough” (the last of which I’m not a huge fan of). Maybe if we’re lucky “Fly on the Windscreen” or “Master and Servant” could get resurrected at some point?
I was really bummed to realize how BORED I was during their stop in Denver last year. By the time they played “Heroes”, I was halfway to the door. I was also a bit embarrassed by Dave trying to recreate the Rose Bowl/101 call and response participation during “Everything Counts”. No one was having it.
Sounds like you had a boring fucking crowd. I saw them in Europe last year and the same situation had the crowd going nuts.
Well, there are plenty I’d like to hear, that’s for sure. Black Celebration, Here is the House, any number of tracks from Some Great Reward.
Ultimately, I agree that unless it’s a totally revamped set list then they’re just missing an opportunity.
Sad Montreal didn’t make this leg!
The show I saw in the outskirts of Houston, Texas was incredible. The call and response was on point. The entire crowd of 15000 plus was singing along to “everything counts”. Also the crowd was standing I believe for the entire 2.5 hrs of the show. It was incredible. Also I was overjoyed to hear songs from Ultra. There was a atime that Gahan did not sing a lot of those songs because that period was a rough period of his addiction past. “Barrel of a gun” is my fav on that album and he song it well. He is a true front man. Also for the Gore fans there is a brief interlude of him singing about 3 songs by himself. If you have not seen this tour yet please go.
Would love to hear Some Great Reward and Music For The Masses in their entirety.
