A new thread this, just to highlight that the tour starts tomorrow and, to my mind, we know so little about it. This could be a welcome , intended surprise, or a complete absence of foresight on the part of the Ferry camp.

Whatever the reason for the veil of secrecy, I quite like it.

In the days before social media we would roll up to a gig with zero detail of set lists or line ups, so everything was a surprise.

Nowadays we know pretty much what to expect before we cross the threshold and, for me, that kills a bit of the magic of the pre-gig anticipation.

On that basis, I have decided to avoid visiting any site (including the excellent VRM) that might poop the party until after the Glasgow gig next week.

Jerry Nunn - please note that a first hand account of the Manchester gig over our pre-concert beers next Tuesday is also off the agenda.

No spoilers from me. Likewise I will be avoiding the forum until after Friday.

Couldn't help looking, as expected not a very exciting setlist, Mamouna at least good but all the other's very much same as last couple of tours,I'm sure still a great show though.

Oh dear .... Jealous Guy and Let’s Stick Together. Such a shame when BF has such an extensive back catalogue. Having just seen up close the magnificent drumming of Paul last Friday , I hope this concert will be as good ( and I hope Bryan’s voice lasts until the end of April ) !

The set list doesn't feature a lot of "new tracks" Mamouna and Bitter Sweet are the only real outliers...

The decision to rely on The Main Thing as the opener doesn't seem particularly inspired IMHO. Ho hum.

I hope the fans have a good time!!!

-As expected? Wasn't a change in the set list very much "expected"?
