    Quebec they didn't play any to the back and TO night 2 they played Last Kiss which I am not a huge fan of but the crowd seemed to love it.

    I wish I could see Soldier Of Love. I've always gotten Small Town or Last Kiss.

    That was nice in Miami (plus the only time played this tour).

    So why do they only play the same few songs to the back? I'm thinking it has something to do with Matt's drums, but am not sure.

    Crowd participation probably has something to do with it as well... playing a big singalong like last kiss or small town keeps everyone in the arena singing and engaged... turn your backs to 90% of the venue and play something they don't know and the whole place goes flat

    What songs suggestions could we make to the band to play "to the back"?

    In the Moonlight might be a cool song to play in my opinion
