They need to rehearse whatever they play. I don’t know if you’ve played music, but you can forget how songs are played surprisingly easily. It comes back quickly, but rust grows!
This is true for sure. I can not remember if it was London or Amsterdam but someone threw a Green Disease shirt up to the stage. Eddie then asked the band if any of them remembered how to play it which kind of surprised me. Just goes to show how much this band gives to play as many varied songs as they do.
It was Amsterdam 2, I think Mike tried the first few notes, stopped then they started light years. Lights turned green during light years so I thought they were meant to play green disease but changed their minds.
Green Disease wasn’t on the setlist. It was a request out of the blue and they hadn’t rehearsed it and so couldn’t play it.
The setlist on Tuesday in London was more varied than others have been and they played 33 songs with three encores! Was a great way to finish the tour.
I don't know why they use covers like RITFW and Baba as closers. They have incredible songs of their own they could use to close - Parting Ways, Inside Job, maybe In Hiding...
