WOW!!!!! I'm going to see the man in Birmingham in December and - reading this setlist - it looks like it's going to be one hell of a night!

Apparently, according to some other websites, he's rehearsed other tracks and he may include these as the tour progresses. One of which is 'Edge Of Heaven'. But, apparently, he's *not* singing 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go'.


Anyway - look at that list! 'Praying For Time'. 'A Different Corner'. 'Father Figure'. 'Fastlove' and more and more and more. I can't wait!

Oh, and according to one website, the reason he sang 'Too Funky' twice is because it started by accident. Apparently, the backing singers were a bit but George just went along with it.

Did someone get fired for that?

He was lip syncing to Flawless on the footage the morning shows showed today

Add Cowboys And Angels to that list and it´s perfect.

He shouldn´t lipsynch though...he´s got a good reputation as a singer and why would he risk losing that ?

No One More Try?

drop "flawless" and "my mother had a brother" and subsitute them with "cowboys and angels" and "one more try" and i think you'd have the perfect show!

sallysassalot said:

Most definitely.

Anyone have any pics from the show? Is George looking better then he was in that July tabloid picture?

Also, is there REALLY a chance this tour will come to USA?

Thanks for the link...

Here is the pic:

AND WHERE'S THE PICTURE...

CinisterCee said:

That's one of my favourte GM songs so I'd be quite happy to hear that twice.

Ellie said:

I missed that. That's a pity. Let's hope it's just the one song, then.

Are you going to see him Ellie??

Damn, I'd love to hear him sing those! Classics!

KoolEaze said:

All the reviews I've read so far have been overwhelmingly positive and all have commented on how great his voice still sounds. Most have said 'the weed obviously hasn't affected his voice'. But I'm hoping it's just the one track that he mimes to.

sallysassalot said:

I agree. One of my colleagues - who's also a massive fan - sent me the tracklist yesterday and my immediate reaction was 'Where's (insert song here) and (insert another song here)?". But it's been so long since he toured, you'd never fit in all the tracks you'd love to hear. And that set-list is stuffed with great songs anyway. I'm just glad to be able to see him live! But My Mother Had A Brother is the only one I'd drop.

carlcranshaw said:

I can't watch that in work but Thanks!! I'll take a look later.

JasonStar said:

You mean the one where he was caught in the bushes?? Or the one where he's got the munchies and he's driving his car to the all-night garage at 2am?? WORST George picture ever.

I haven't heard any rumours about a US tour but I hope you guys get to see him.

papaa said:

Very subtle. I read about that yesterday. Apparently, George tugs on a lead/leash but the dog doesn't let go.

sosgemini said:

Not by the looks of it. I like it but there are loads of songs I'd love to hear before that one. But I wouldn't know where to start.

Terrific setlist. Sooooo glad he's doing Shoot The Dog.

Shapeshifter said:

Me too! That, and Freeek, are two favourites off the last album.

I'm gonna be shakin' my at the concert, I'm sure!


Any other Orgers going to see him?

God, I wish he was coming here.

GangstaFam said:

Sorry Nathan. I really hope you guys get to see him.

I know how frustrating it is watching Prince tour your country and not getting a sniff of him. So I hope he changes his mind.

I imagine it has a lot to do with the Shoot The Dog debacle but there are bound to be lots of fans willing to see him. Fingers crossed!

Martinelli said:

Thanks Martinelli.

I posted this last week as my wish list...WOW he played a lot I could want.

If I had a wishlist (I can't see him...he's not coming here)...

Great list. It's 'Cowboys And Angels', which keeps getting mentioned, that I'd like to hear.
