I think the set could do with a change, why is it so sacred to have certain songs played at every gig? I love bands and artists that change the set every night, R.E.M are great at doing it and Guns N' Roses had a core of about 30 songs that they varied on most nights.
How about Bat opening the show? maybe with an extended intro? or how about more songs from Neighbourhood or Deadringer? Deadringer is as good as if not better than Bat2 IMO
I know this would be hard for the band to reherse and i can see Meat's point that people want to hear the 'hits' but this can still be achieved.
To me Lemon and Frying pan could do with a rest and i hate the way songs are shortened to fit others in, I'd rather a set of 10 full length songs rather than 16 short ones.
how about a set like:
Bat Out Of Hell
I'll Kill You If You Don't Come Back
I'd Lie For You and thats the truth
You Took The Words
Deadringer
Original Sin
Bad For Good
Everything Louder
Read Em And Weep
Anything For Love
Paradise By The Dashboard Light
