Agreed but still prefer a fairly long sampler set of WDC to "snippets" of songs with the band or on the guitar!! Give your "crowd pleaser" set Rum!!!!....it ain't because he hasn't played dit in a couple of years that he won't dig it out 4 Dublin!!!! | |

BUT Right he hasn't done then in a few years doesn't mean he is done with them. He might and probably will bring songs back! I don't feel you should criticize someones opinion on a set list. Take 1999, what did we go 6-7 years without that and he brought it back. Baby I'm A Star wasn't that big for a few years but its back and then other random songs that he throws in. Just a little bit of a tangent here but still I don't think you should jump to disagree when P changes his mind so much, brings back songs, gets rid of them, extendends them, samples them etc. etc. etc. DB90 - Snare Drum Pounds On The 2 & 4 | |

Not criticising anyone!!!! Respect to Rumand for his close reading of the setlist!! Just speculating! The Croke Park gig is a strange one....he's gonna have to make a good impression I think the setlist is going to be really interesting. Can we have your list???? | |

Think he may throw in a few crowd pleasers like:
kiss Sexy MF Get Off I could never take the place of your man I just hope and play that its not like the Cork gig in 1990 with the crowd bursting into Ole Ole during Purple Rain  "Now put that suitcase down And go in there
And put on that wig I bought U" | |

The track list from Coachella was:
‘Jungle Love’ ‘The Glamorous Life’ ‘1999’ ‘I Feel For You’ ‘Controversy’ ‘Little Red Corvette’ ‘Musicology’ ‘Cream’ ‘U Got The Look’ ‘Shhh’ ‘Another Lover Holen Yo Head’ ‘Creep’ (Radiohead cover) ‘In The Arms Of An Angel’ ‘7’ ‘Come Together’(Beatles cover) ‘Purple Rain’ ‘Let’s Go Crazy’ Maybe something similar for Croker  "Now put that suitcase down And go in there
And put on that wig I bought U" | |

i think 7 will definitely be in there, he played that at the book launch too, seems to be a current fave.
i think he will play either guitar or fury as well I dont think glamerous ife will be played as i dont think shiela e is going. shes listed for a tour later in july but no mention of croke plus shelbys listed for croke which makes me think shiela e would be too, if going. i dont think he does glamerous life without her. walk with crooked shoes www.myspace/syblepurplelishous | |
