Yellow Ledbetter Opener....

Personally I think it would be pretty cool if PJ flipped the script and sent McCredible out solo to open with a Yellow Ledbetter/ Star Spangled face melter. Think about it for a sec... could break right into anything after the band snuck on stage behind him, and it would get YL outta the way first, opening up the end of show for something completely unpredictable. Sporting events open with the national anthem why not PJ? I also think it would be a really classy way to close the Spectrum.

    I think that's a great idea.
    I just really don't want it to be the very last song played at the Spectrum.

    I think for the 10/31 show, All Those Yesterdays would be a fitting closer.

    All those yesterdays would be nice as a closer. But I maintain Ledbetter opener would slay the crowd.

    Aerosmith once played a show in the 70s where they changed their setlist and started with the song that was usually their encore. Steven Tyler was so wasted he walked off stage thinking the show was over!

    It would be 'interesting' to hear what YL sounded like before Ed had drunk a bottle of wine! :D
