Perth (24 November 2010)

This was the same set list as the Adelaide show ...

Dean,
Same setlist as Adelaide...? Adelaide included "A Singer Must Die" after "Avalanche"... Your numbering of the second set starts with "12" while set 1 ends with "10".

Please clarify if possible.

Thanks for all the great reports and the setlists of course!

Aaah ... you're quite correct; that doesn't add up -- goes to show how good a job I do when I try to type these things at 3am

It should read "setlist as per Adelaide but with A Singer Must Die omitted". I'll go back and fix up the numbering.

Hi Maarten,
Just had a look at your PDF file - an excellent effort. A Tower Of Set Lists??

Are you going to give us a breakdown of all the songs and how many times each was sung?
I certainly would be interested in the statistics.
If you have the time and inclination, please include where each song was sung most commonly.
My impression is that the 2nd set always started with "Tower Of Song" - any exceptions?
Has "Anthem" always been the closing number of set 1?

Congratulations on your award from Dr H Guy

Alan

Hi Maarten,

It's a little late to be bringing this up, but I attended the May 17, 2008 concert in Halifax and I'm sure Hey That's No Way To Say Goodbye was played. On the other hand, I'm pretty old..... Is there any way this can be checked out? Thanks so much.

Carolyn

[Maarten]

Hi Carolyn,
I can't find any posts confirming that Hey... was played that night, so for now I'll leave my list as it is. I'll try to do some more research later.
