So what about a Philly Experiment?

So I was thinking how great would it be if they did the Philly shows like the Boston Experiment in 2003! Not repeating a song and playing the entire catalog!!! What do you think the chances are of this? Would that be something you would want to hear or see or both? Just a Idea I figured I would throw out there. I listen to those Boston shows all the time. How lucky those people were to see those amazing shows.
Yellow Ledbetter is my least favorite song. Because as soon as you hear the first note you know it is time to say goodbye.

    The thing about the Boston (Mansfield) 2003 experiement, that was after about 6 months of constant touring ... so they had all those songs that they had been playing for months all practiced up.

    Sorry Philly, you'll get some good shows and I'm certain there will be some special treats thrown in ... but, it'll never be "the experiment" again ... :mrgreen:

    (For the record, they didn't play the "entire catalog", they played every song they had played on that particular tour ... also, they did repeat a few songs over the three nights ... or at least one)

    I am well aware that they did not play the entire catalog but damn near close lol. I am not saying it will happen I am just throwing the Idea out there. I figured why not post and see what happens. You never know who will see this or what may become of it? Cheers to you if you were there. Here is to the next experiment!
