Thanks for the setlist cbellingham  :wave

Mark has played 16 songs before during this tour, I wonder what makes him to play 16 or 17 songs, maybe the rush to the cars and airports?

They've also had a lot of travelling lately and playing every day too.  RB's been moaning recently (as per)! ::)

Isn't travelling and playing almost  daily not very common during a tour???  ;D

I've heard that RB only moans when they pick him up to say hello constantly .... :hmm

I know what you mean but he deliberately pointed out under Cardiff's entry the following:

"Here's today's scorecard:
5 cities (Lyndhurst-Bournemouth-Cardiff-St. Albans-London)
2 flights
1 show
.... all in less than 12 hours!"
"I'm playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order."

And for that reason they played two days later only 16 songs????
But I generally wonder why on some gigs they do 16 and others 17 songs, do they know it before the show, or do they (Mark) decide it during the show etc etc .

On their "technically" day off, when the BBC gig was recorded RB also moans:

 "TV... hurry up, wait, camera blocking, sound checking, start, stop, tea break, more blocking, etc.  We spent most of the day doing just that and by the time the audience was in and we began I was knackered. "

especially the words "technically" and ""knackered"  , I start to feel quilt........ :P

I hope he will be fit and less complaining during the rest of the tour, and he knows the fans read it, so if he wanna complain, go to the boss  , not the fans....imho :think
Leaving nothing to interfere,
