Since the first show I don’t care about Trapper and BOTD anymore, I just hope he keeps playing this wonderful setlist and sincerely hope he doesn’t make weird changes like pulling OUATITW, HFOH or Silvertown from the set.

Guy is teasing us :) He should have faked more and just wrote the names of HUGE surprises to that display: TOL 20 min, Back in black etc.

I though that he might change Bacon Roll for Back on the dance floor from one show to other but by now, the set seems written on stone.

Bacon Roll is one of my favorite songs from the record but I don't like it in the concert, doesn't sound appropriate to me for a live show on an arena or a bullring...
You might get lucky, now and then

Would you like to have Back on the dance floor as an opener?

I think BR sounds fantastic live, but of course I haven't been to the actual shows, so it might be different in situ.

Imagine an arena filled with 12.000 people clapping and singing "have you got my roll, my roll, my bacon roll"... Is the weirdest thing you would see such a crowd singing along with a rock band... I found it ridiculous and ashaming personally.

That's exactly what I'm looking forward to doing, jbaent!  I've been singing it around the house, getting into the right frame of mind!   ;D

I know, I know - it's absurd and surreal, but yet amazing. Like a Dalí painting.

And unbeleivable how OSAAT so far and probably forever will be left out to make room for this song    :disbelief that ending solo in OSAAT would be nice to hear, but instead we will sing about bacon. What's next? Scrambled eggs? When you're dealing with your coffee what do you prefer? Black or milk?
