Yeah, I just realized those weren't played.  It didn't really dawn on me at the time.  So I am hoping for The Bear and Burmuda Highway as well.  I guess I was just so filled up with music that I didn't notice.

My buddy and I are going to all three and have a little contest going between the two of us. During the day of the 27th we are going to sit down and have a "draft" where we pick ten songs apiece.  The goal is to pick as many songs from their six full length LPs that won't be played. Only rule is you have to pick at least one track from each disc (songs have to have lyrics- no Good Intentions or the last track instrumentals found on some versions of the first two albums). Each night, the guy who had more songs off their list played has to buy the post show beers (or something like that). Should be fun. I've already got my number one draft pick in my head...

Put Remnants on your list. They aren't going to play that.

might have to steal that idea or tweak it a bit for our crew.

I went back and looked at past setlist (by songs played), not sure it was comprehensive, but they have played some wild and amazing covers - many just once or twice over the years.

I was specifically looking for West End Girls, but my cursory research didn't show that they had ever played that song live, despite having actually recorded it (albeit a long time ago).  However, the variety of covers they have played at one time or another was crazy.

I would say we're going to get at least 8 covers, expecting It Makes No Difference, Isn't It A Pity and Tyrone, probably Rocket Man (although they haven't played this as much as I suspected), Move On Up seems likely, as does Oh! Sweet Nothin'.  These were all played at The Wiltern.  That leaves 4 more cover possibilities.  The've played Rock The Casbah lately, so there's a fair chance that might show up.  That leaves 2 at least.  Curious to see what these will be, it was Prince and Lionel Ritchie at The Wiltern, but I suspect those are the most likely to be switched up.

Obviously the unexpected covers are, well unexpected, which makes the speculation fun. :smiley:
