Guy's answer:

No, that's rubbish. I never said anything of the sort. He actually categorically didn't want to play that tune as it was suggested by one of the band. ---You Got Me

So.. The band suggested to play TOL, but Mark didn't want it... That realy realy sucks... :'(

He also said:

As for oldies, there were a few brief suggestions met with a short, sharp 'no'.

Come on... Hey plays the same setlist over and over again and refuses some old song suggestions... It's no fair :'( :P :disbelief >:(

Nothing surprising ...
Everybody here can write down the next setlist with only 3 or 4 mistakes.   8)
Even the order could be predictable.

To be honest, I would be very disappointed if he happened to play TOL again.
He would probably try to shorten the intro and ... ruin the song.  

He'll play Monteleone and not TOL ! And I'm paying for that  ;)

Good point. He is making a new album and touring every two years, lets not be too critical. I love seeing him live even if he plays the same old songs.
