Sets from South Africa and South America

I don't usually complain about sets, but they were nothing special at all! Do you think this band would only play these kinds of sets all the time if they thought us hardcore fans would still come? I just don't get it. And it's not just the songs they play repeatedly, it's that the order is so predictable. Why not play Jimi Thing first and DDTW last? Why have PM~Satellite in every damn set? Why can't PM go into something else? Boring. Don't tell me it was good energy. That's what is always said during bad sets. I want more creativity from a set in this band.

They say they change songs up every night still, but they really don't.Jimi thing, Two Step, #41, Seek Up, they are all the same jams lately. Those are the meat of what we love about this band. When i groan because Jimi thing is played, something is wrong. Even the horn parts are really similar. Everyone is dialing it in the last 2 years. I'm kind of worried.

    This summer tour was pretty great, at least better than the last 2 years. These shows were mainly festival settings, so they always play "down" on those.
