17 songs out of the 21 (not including india as that's just intro music) first performed by Roxy, only 5 Ferry solo, considering Ferry's recorded output is double Roxy's it's a bit unbalanced, surely he should be able to include more of his solo stuff.If not, why doesn't he just put Roxy back on the road?

Oh well In Your Mind ignored again. I agree that if he's going to play Roxy songs get Roxy back together. They play them best.

Bonsoir! Have been watching YouTube, better clips than usual, thanks to whoever posted them. Great to see that BF looks to be in fine form. I shall not complain of the set list at all. As W2 used to say, all BF is good BF - and all RM is also BF! And Yanick Etienne is back! Giving a silver lining to Avalon as usual. Marina Moore is in the background but surely she is a nice addition. And who can long for a RM reunion seeing Jorja playing & dancing? Mon Dieu, qu`elle est belle!

For me , the peak of the Ferry live experience was the RAH in 2013. The Palladium gig I saw last year was a disappointment. If he took this tour to London properly in 2017 I would be unlikely to attend . Like others, I only want to see Ferrt play Ferry . We did Roxy. It's over . I don't want Roxy lite or Roxy heavy without Roxy Music. Ferry's canon is incredible, why push it to one side?

Chére Teresa, hope you will be able to attend a show or two in America. If so, please write a report! Good idea with Mamouna. Any song from that brilliant album would please me. I am also pleased that BF has choosen a lot of material from Avalon lately. The only song that hasn`t been played - ever? - is True to life, which is a kind of hidden gem - but hard to understand how it should be performed live. As far as I can judge from YouTube, Both ends burning is the song that works best as a crowd pleaser. So full of life and energy. And BF has passed 70 - "while you counting sheep"!
