Based on recent threads around here, though it would be fun to get a real majority vote if what we all want to hear.

Yes, the obvious answer is: all of the above, but given only 1 option, what would it be?

    I actually struggled with this one. A revamped "All the Way" was a close 2nd.

    Pretty sure the acoustic preset is going to win with ease. If you had Hard to Imagine up there though as a choice I would have had to really thought about it.

    While I wont be at Wrigley, this is my vote for what I would choose if I were. I hope I get to hear it at one of my shows in the future

    On the surface, I'd agree, but with a preset, most people already know if they plan on being in the stadium at 6:00. And, most people will not be. So if you know you're going to be at Murphy's or Sluggers til 7:15, an accoustic preset would do you no good. 

    Other folks would much rather hear Leash one time over 6 or 7 frequently played accoustic songs.

    Then there's the folks that want to cross a super rarity off their "have not see live yet" list. They would rather this that 6-7 songs they have seen live 12 times.

    That updated All The Way has been my dream since the Cubs World Series Championship, and it's of course an extremely close #2 and made things VERY hard, but an acoustic preset would be unforgettable.

    This is a no-brainer for me, but if it's retired and we get a present I won't be upset about that at all.

    Leash
    As awesome a 30-40 minute acoustic preset would be, just doesn't sound like something that would happen. With that in consideration, let's dust off a song that hasn't been played in almost 25 years. Drop the leash.

    This seems a silly question.  Your acoustic option sounds awesome

    Definitely meant to throw that one on here.

    Really great question that made me think hard.  The preset was hard to pass up, and hearing Leash again (first & only time was Boston 2006) would be awesome, but gotta go with one of my white whales in Dirty Frank.  Honestly, any of the above would blow my mind.

    Getaway
    We still need Getaway!  Not sure that would work acoustic, but hey open for them to try it.
