He doesn't open with Remake Remodel - how about Manifesto? Prairie Rose?

And please play "Beauty Queen"....I know it won't happen- but I'm always hopeful.....

"The In Crowd" would make a great opener!

I put a spell on you is the best opener, in my opinion.
Hope for Avonmore, One night stand, Send in the clowns. And some material from Mamouna.

The In Crowd for me too, it's my favourite Ferry single and favourite opening album track. You can't beat that sexy bass intro, the rest of the band joining in and prowling and growling, fabulous "knowing" vocal and a manic blitzkrieg guitar outro that sucks your brain down a cosmic plughloe.

As it were.

It still gives me goosebumps 40 years on.

Have a great weekend everyone.

I'm not sure about an opener, but maybe include 'What Goes On' in the set. Waddy Wachtel can guest on guitar as he is already there.

re-make/re-model in the style of AEWBF version would always be a welcome opener for me. but the band won't be able to pull that off i suspect, given the instruments available....but otherwise:
manifesto (original long intro version)
the in crowd (but it needs nasty guitar)
sign of the times (but then straight into another up tempo number)

somewhere in the set:
in your mind
four letter love
beauty queen
beauty queen
beauty queen
sea breezes (pretty please, with clever vocal rearrangement, by necessity)

BQ is one of my favs and I play it quite a lot. BF was in fine voice back in 73 but I think he would struggle to get anywhere near singing it nowadays, especially live.
