    I can't believe that DM doesn't play Everything Counts and Just Can't Get Enough...

    @Br1 - Believe it. I'm glad they've mixed it up. We already have seen JCGE and EC during the Singles Tour. The songs they replaced those with are soooo much better.

    Br1 - Unless you are being sarcastic ... they can't play the same songs on every tour. Good to hear a couple of songs that haven't been played in a while ... but in my opinion, not enough ... I would have liked to have heard 'odd' songs on the setlist like Things you Said, Clean or Lie to Me

    I'm very glad that they don't play JCGE I don't think the song fits in ! I will miss Everything Counts though... But they usually mix up the setlists from place to place - so who knows!

    I do like those 3 songs that they havn't played for a while. Still I have seen them on every tour from Violator on and other than the new album, there will be no song I havn't seen them do before. I am furious with the way they lowered the pitch in 'wrong', 'peace', and 'come back'. I can understand lowering 'condemnation' but those songs are no where near that pitch and sound horrible the way they are doing them. They should be playing 'oh well' instead of 'in sympathy', 'useless or boag' instead of 'it's no good', 'suffer well, lillian, newborn, or martyr' instead of 'preacious', 'rush' instead of 'walking in my shoes', 'i feel loved' instead of 'in your room', 'but not tonight' instead of 'waiting for the night', 'death's door or things you said' instead of 'question of lust', 'blasphemous rumours' instead of 'stripped', 'lie to me' instead of 'question of time', and 'told you so' instead of 'never let me down again'. I don't think anyone would prefer the real set to my dreamset. You have to admit, most of those changes are concievable.
