    you're in the building?
    A child's rhyme stuck in my head...
    It said "Life is nothing but a dream."
    I've spent so many years in question
    To find I'd known this all along.

    Considering the tour is basically to promote the new album, I don't think you will see the Boston thing happening here. I think the sets will be cool and rarities will pop up each night but I think they will be pushing the new stuff hard each night.

    Anyone see what Bruce is doing at the Meadowlands???? Playing each a entire album in order from his catalog each night. Freaking scheduled nonetheless (saw the dates/albums listed on Ticketmaster). He plays other cuts as well but to hear an entire album from start to finish and know it is coming is pretty cool.

    Bugs is the worst song ever, it will not/should not ever be played.

    while I don't think they will play the entire catologue at these shows, they will play a good portion of it and mix things up pretty well each night.

    It shouldn't be played, waste of setlist space.

    The Boston experiment was on the Riot Act tour.

    The way they have been changin things up, I would be surprised if they don't cover all the tour songs(like in Boston) along with a few extras.

    +1 If I never heard this song again, I'd be fine with that. If they played it on the 31st, the ghosts of the Spectrum would exact swift revenge.

    I respectfully disagree that Ghost would be a sweet opener. In fact, it may be one of the worst openers imaginable.

    Yea basically. Im a fan of the song, but as an opener its basically what the song title is. A ghost...

    "whats that? i THINK i hear the opening song but it just seems to be just some airy noise"

    to OP: I can actually see this happening. I think you have a good point.

    They have a couple of weeks off before these Philly shows and a couple of weeks off after these Philly shows. I expect something much more than 4 regular shows. I'm going to nights 3 and 4 and I have a feeling I'm going to regret not skipping class to go to nights 1 and 2.
