When Earth Tour comes to The US.

When The Earth Tour comes to The United States do you think he'll keep the same set. WOnder if he'll change the setlist and even the clothing.

There was a reason the Toronto venue had the symbol stage setup. Things can change, but I have no doubt a swing through North America was planned up to the point of actually making deals with venues.

I hope the tour makes it here.

There is no Earth Tour. I love how he has dubbed it that, but really he'll only be playing London for this album.

If he does come to the US, I hope he switches the sets up a bit. IMO they look very boring. I am shocked at the lack of selections culled from the last 3 albums as well as the heavy amount of covers not to mention the fact that about a dozen songs/hits are still in heavy rotation since the Musicology tour..

if you actually WENT to a show, youd think differently, besides he has done loads from the last 3 albums:

3121
Musicology
Black Sweat
Guitar
Lolita
Satisfied
Somewhere Here On Earth
Get On The Boat
Planet Earth
The Dance
The 1 U Wanna C

He hasn't done loads from the last 3 albums. He's does like one song from each during a set. Maybe 2. And those are mostly Guitar, Black Sweat and Musicology. That's a pretty small list though. WHere is...

Fury
Love
ICP&C
Te Amo
Million Days
ICP&C
Chelsea Rogers???? <<<---- Probably the biggest miss in the set.

It just seems pretty lite on the new stuff (not even TRC) and heavy on Covers and Hits (which he said he'd be retiring).

Just saying I've seen/heard better sets...and longer ones too. I know he's great and all live, but I think for the Hardcore, it's a bit lacking. It seems a bit like the Vegas sets and for someone with such a deep catalog, one would think he'd reach a bit deeper. There was one night so far, where I saw the set list and went "Damn that looks good"...and it was an aftershow of all things (I am finding many of his aftershows a bit lacking).
