According to the set lists published so far the public gigs are getting shorter: 22 - 21 - 20 - 18 and they are unadventurous compared with those for the Dylanesque ('When She Walks in the Room', 'Love Me Madly Again', 'This Island Earth' and 'To Turn You On' (but only once)) and For Your Pleasure (too many gems to mention) tours.

However, out of loyalty, I will catch the tour somewhere but it seems to be avoiding the north of England so far. He cancelled Dalby Forest a few years ago at very short notice and they lost a fortune as they had no insurance. Tatton Park or Castle Howard would be good if anyone's listening.

The sets list are shorter each night and very boring ones.
Only two songs from the new Olympia album ...it seems a strange option,and shows a lack of interest of bringing new things to the audience...the less effort the big money!!

The show in Gothenburgh was outdoors and had the time limits of the amusement park, 1 1/2 hour. You can always have opinions about the set list, but the show was excellent. Everyone seemeed to be in a good mood performing for what I guess was the largest crowd of the tour so far, about 7 500 people.
But I was surprised to see the exact same setlist in Malmö the next night, indoors were people paid ten times the money for the same show.
Anyway an excellent show in Gothenburgh.
