NYE Opening Song Predictions:

[kydiddle]

If It Smashes Down




just kidding

Haha. Not really an upbeat opener. However, I love, love, love this song and if they played it...I wouldn't be disappointed.

If It Smashes Down




just kidding

yeah, I would LOVE to hear the rarer tunes off of At Dawn, such as If it Smashes Down and I Needed it Most

same goes for TTF stuff, If All Else Fails, Picture of You

best opener, imo, would be Heartbreakin Man

Haha. Not really an upbeat opener. However, I love, love, love this song and if they played it...I wouldn't be disappointed.

i heard them sound checking "when i look you in the eyes" by the jonas brothers but i think they will play "juicy" by biggie smallz

[MickeyReds]

Into the woods

new york, new york. hilarious

[October]

if i have to make a semi-serious prediction....how about O Is The One That Is Real

the first time i saw the band they opened with O and it rocked.

[ALady]

I dont think they'll open with a cover, playing MSG on New Years is a great accomplishment, and they should honor themselves and their fans by playing one of the songs that got them there.

Dancefloors and Magheeta would be great and Anytime has been an awesome opener on this tour. I wouldnt be surprised if they threw a huge curveball and opened with One Big Holiday.

I LOVE when they open with Anytime...it really sets the tone for the evening!

Tonite I Want 2 Celebrate W/ You!

I agree..."O" could be a rockin choice to get the crowd pumped...or Anytime...I'd put my money on either of those two.  No matter what, we are in a win/win situation...this is gonna be fun.

Good vibes good vibes. :D

I'd love for them to open with O!  That'd be absolutely AMAZING!  I'm not a betting man, but if I had to guess, I'd put my money on One Big Holiday.   ;)

Bob Dylan "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You" ('Live 1975' version)

Have they ever actually played that song?  B/c I know I read a review where it was said that they played it but I wonder if someone just goofed and got it confused with "Tonight I Wanna Celebrate.."

[The DARK]

It will be the band pleading with Two-Tone: I Just Wanted to Be Your Friend

[moflojo]

So where do they go from there? Does the band all ascend to heaven with Two Tone Tommy?

Well, at the end of New Years show in San Fran "Angel" Two Tone got his revenge and shot the rest of the band. Then they rest of them rose with him up the Stairway to Heaven as the Zeppelin version began to play over the PA. For those predicting stairway as the opener i hope your joking. No one busts out the stairway opener. Not even zeppelin can bust it out opener

Yes, they did. Quite a bit in '05, I believe. I know I saw them do it at Bonnaroo that year.

They played it last year fot the I'm Not There Concert.  They ROCKED it, too!

[kydiddle]

Even though I'm still holding to my prediction of Evil Urges, I'd love to see them break out something from The Tennessee Fire. I always get such a cheap thrill when 'Heartbreakin Man' starts up because I know I'm in for about an hour of fantastic songs. Or 'The Dark'. Yeah, that'd be great, too.

Hell, Jim could come out and read 'Goodnight Moon' and it would be a great start to the evening...

[AllyDee]

I actually think "It's About Twilight Now" would make a good surprise and awesome opener
