    What over the last two years would lead you to even having this hunch?

    They cut the ladies down to almost exclusively to venues they didnt hit in 2014. So theyve essentially hit every part of the tour. The fact that they did that last year at least shows theyre at least aware they dont want to do them back to back years at venues. I think theyve spread them out pretty well. Its clear they arent a band mainstay. Plus this year they didnt make any mention of "special guests" like last year.

    The stuff of them digging deeper into the catalog just comes from seeing the progression from 2014 to 2015, especially in the acoustic set. On top of that, its the year before a break, and I look back at the 2010 tour where they dug out tons of stuff before that "break".

    My thoughts arent unsubstantiated at all. Theyre actually pretty realistic. Doesnt mean they will happen at all, just that history suggests things at least leaning the way of my thoughts.

    Apparently some band Lake Street Drive announced they will be at the gorge. So Im guessing some kind of mini caravan type thing again.

    What time did it normally start when there was just one opener?

    I was really wanting two sets to go away. I just hope the performances have great energy, add songs, remove songs, remove ladies, less trumpet, more Jeff and have Tim play acoustic guitar some during the electric set.

    Also, Virginia get a guest different from Joe Lawlor, John D or the ladies...we've been there and done that.

    That's wanting a lot. I'm ok with two sets, but it go stale last year. 2014 was fun cause it was fresh. Last year it seemed like we got a lot of the same stuff. More variety would be good. I also think making it acoustic forces some stagnation. Just give us 2 sets and if some of it is Dave solo or Dave and Tim or whatever for a few songs, great. Do what they did in Lisbon.

    Also Tim acoustic during the electric set, won't happen unless it's him and Dave or something like that. It would get drowned out by the rest of the mix.

    I can't tell, their website doesn't have any openers listed but I know for sure there are 2 openers at the Gorge. So maybe they just aren't telling anyone and the openers are a surprise? It doesn't look like the set list from last night was two sets.
