    the diversity in these sets on this tour would have made it worthwhile to see literally every show

  • Hell of a show but the chelios stuff was just a waste of 20 minutes. Not everyone is into Chicago sports or sports period. Nice to give them a nod or call out but a jersey retirement should be at the hockey game. 

    Music and set were fantastic.
    Agreed.  Nothing against Chelios or the Hawks but Go Leafs Go! And anyway keep hockey to hockey and music to music.  Wonderful show overall.  
    I totally get that not everyone is into sports and are going to a concert for music. But for someone who grew up in Chicago in the 90s, Chris Chelios was a big thing (not as big as MJ and the Bulls obviously). I personally thought it was awesome seeing them do that for their friend last night. Like it or not, the band members have always been huge into sports and if they want to incorporate it into what they do, then that’s their choice. I’m not a cubs fan but I thought it was great when they brought Ernie Banks out after the rain delay in Wrigley ‘13.

    I think the most important thing to take into consideration is that there was no other encore break all night. Ed didn’t really stop to tell long stories about Chicago in between songs like he did Tuesday and other times. They played the same amount of songs as N1 in about a 15 min shorter set, and I personally didn’t have a problem with the pace of the evening.

    This.

    I keep looking at the Setlists and trying to decide which is best.  It's so personal.  And they have all been great, IMO.  I'm partial to Chicago N1 and St Paul N2 so far.   But St Paul N1 was great for several reasons and Chicago N2 for Tremor Christ alone...Marker too...
