My Tour Central Stats

Seems like, for the most part, they're just playing songs that they know they're comfortable with. You can't argue the fact that these electric sets, for the most part, look like something you'd see in Australia. They have always had more variety in the US except for "festival sets" and it's just very strange to see them not branching out into their catalog more. This band has a massive catalog and it's disappointing to see them sticking to their standard songs for the most part when they could be mixing in a ton of variety like they did last year. They're capable of it, but Dave is just obviously uninspired while writing these electric sets. They're good songs, and I enjoy seeing them live, but it's strange and a bit disappointing when they stick to the same standard tunes. I'm speaking specifically about the electric sets when I say all of this.
