There were several songs performed during the World Container tour that have yet to make an appearance during this We Are The Same tour.
Which song do you feel has the best chance of making back into the setlist for this tour?
I'm thinking 'Kids'. Not based on favourites though......... by far my least favourite track on WC.
I wish they'd bring back Kids...
Fire In The Hole is a kick ass closer.
The should end sets with Grace, Too --> Fire In The Hole frequently.
Always loved the vibe to Sherpa, would love to hear it again.
PS, please take Summer Is Killing Us of the list............ :roll: :roll:

me too!!!
I would like to see a few back in the setlist. Shows are getting good reviews but the list has been mundane at best. Liked when the band was mixing it up a bit earlier in the tour.

I picked Gems. It's been such a staple over the years that I'd be surprised if they just dropped it completely. I especially love it when they combine it with Dire Wolf.
38 Years Old was such a shock when it made it into the lineup a couple years back. I thought like Fiddler's Green, they might keep it in the line up but it looks like it's retired again.
Summer is Killing Us is a much better song live. With about a dozen songs left before the end of summer, I thought there might be a chance they play this one as a dedication to the season.
I thought for sure Chagrin would be played in Cleveland. Looks like it's gone where the unknown won't even go.
I think MAv mentioned that he heard them rehearsing Cordelia. I'm surprised it hasn't made an appearance. Maybe they didn't like how it sounded in rehearsal.
There are a few songs from the World Container album that apparently didn't make the cut. I thought Kids had a good chance of finding the occasional spot in the lineup but it looks like they chose The Drop Off.
Fire in the Hole is always great to hear live but if they have to bring something back from Day For Night, I'd prefer So Hard Done By.
Sherpa is always a fun one to hear live. That would be my sentimental favourite.
Hey all, I know this doesn't relate to the posed question, but the song "Fight" came on the other day, and I thought how awesome would this tune be live and how much room in the song there is for Gord to do what he does best! So if I could choose one that's not on the back of the box, "Fight" would be her!!

We are coming up to the 10 year anniversary of the last time "Fight" was performed live (8/27/1999). Seems like a long shot.
Simply from the perspective of what song would be the easiest to play I would have to say "Gems". Sherpa is pretty easy too but "Gems" is basically one chord through the entire song..... It would be so easy to soundcheck and play at anytime. 38 years old, cordelia and SIKU are a fairly tough to pull off without putting in some effort to get them to right.
Just a musical viewpoint... :thumb:
I voted for Cordeila too because of what MaV said earlier about them practicing it. They did a MuchMusic special after MAW came out and they agreed to take one request from the audience and the guy requested Cordelia. Gord S ran right up to Gord D. and told them to ask for a second choice, but they still ended up doing it and it sounded great. Not sure why Gord S (who does setlists) has problem with Cordelia. I doubt it's difficult for them to play...
I used to have the MuchMusic thing on tape but I can't find it, does anyone else have it?
On that subject, I'd love to have the Camp Trillium Something On special too! That was my favourite vhs to watch back in the day.
