In one of the  2011 shows I stood next to the soundboard and the FOH man was busy on the phone and making several alterations with a pen on the laid out set list.. It was 10 minutes prior to the show.. Oh did I mention that it was during the break and therefore of course Bob's set that had been changed in that minute?

LE

That would never happen in a MK concert. Sets written  on stone are heavy to change.

On the last tour of U2 it was a default that the songs played appeared on U2.com beforehand the concert would start due to the teleprompter. The crew had to load the lyrics to every song they were going to play that night into the telepromper for Bono. The teleprompter was connected to the software for the site, resulting the site was updated as soon as they uploaded the lyrics  :smack :smack :smack

Since they are putting the setlist even before the concert starts, our live setlist thing looses all his meaning, don't you think?

I thought that live emotions are the most important. Did Mark say goodbye, etc.

I'm glad I went to the concert - in 2015 I was utterly disappointed but after I read about the changes to the setlist I decided to go there.

The concert was much better than last time - maybe I went with a different mindset: keeping in mind that this could have been probably the last regular MK concert and I also didn't have the expectations like in former years when I wanted to see the guitar hero of my youth - of course there have been some moments, sparks I'd say, but all in all there's a reason why there are so many other musicians. A long way from the four-piece-band of the early days...but it's okay.

The concert was not the best concert of my entire life - but it was very decent.
The sound was bad as always in this crappy arena. When he talked it was bearly audible - but I think he didn't say good-bye.

I can live with TR gone, I really enjoyed OUATITW and Silvertown Blues.

BTW: although the overall sound was subpar - the guitars sounded astonishingly good, maybe even better than during the last tours.
I don't think the Kemper amps sounded bad at all, maybe it is even an improvement because these devices are easier to mic and mix - and therefore contribute to a more balanced sound?

Again, most people don't go to more than one show, so if the current set is working for Mark and provides him with a framework where he can feel relaxed and perform his best, then I don't see the problem.

A static set within the same tour must be perfectly acceptable. Almost identical sets from tour to tour, though, that is a whole different issue.
