Setlists

Post by Laura »

Bucharest September 21

First set
1. Dance me to the end of love
2. The Future
3. Ain't no cure for love
4. Bird on the wire
5. Everybody knows
6. In my secret life
7. Who by fire
8. Hey, that's no way to say good bye
9. Anthem

Second set
10. Tower of song (with the included joke...)
11. Suzanne
12. Gypsy wife
13. The partisan (!)
14. Hallelujah
15. Democracy
16. I'm your man
17. Take this waltz

Encores
18. So long, Marianne
19. First we take Manhattan

20. Sisters of mercy
21. If it be your will
22. Closing time

23. Famous blue raincoat
24. I tried to leave you
25. Whither thou goest

As you can see, the setlist is pretty much as in the Summer Tour; I underlined the things that were changed. I believe The Partisan was used instead of Boogie Street because Sharon Robinson was not there (!!); but we did get spoiled with Famous Blue Raincoat! (a more detailed story of how that happened will come-I hope-in the other thread)

W A R S A W (1st Oct 2008)

Hi! The setlist in Warsaw looked very much like that during Wroclaw gig - with one exception. 'Heart With No Companion' was in the first part of the show and I don't remember 'Bird on a Wire' this time. I can't be 100 percent sure - I hate to distract myself with making notes during concerts - but it's quite likely that the first part was like this:

1. Dance me to the end of love
2. The Future
3. Ain't no cure for love
4. Heart With No Companion
5. Everybody knows
6. In my secret life
7. Who by fire
8. Hey, that's no way to say good bye
9. Anthem

(...)

Can anyone confirm my *positions*?

Wojtek - remember, there are only two simple rules:

Rule 1: The Wife is always right
Rule 2: When The Wife is not right, see Rule 1. :)

Wow! Did He really play "The End"? I am sure it was wonderful...
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again
