Since 2016 Ed is a flat, two dimensional recreation of 1990 Ed, that might work.

Considering they only have one album, I think most people were expecting a bunch of covers. What else do you want them to do? Go on tour and play ten songs each night and be done?
This is a lot different than Pearl Jam, who has 10 studio albums + all their other shit. When they play 7 covers a night it seems cheap.

what i wanna know is if MC is playing everything at a shitty tempo
These setlists have me all juiced up to try and go to one of these shows, and it looks like I can do the LA show next monday night. I can make a business trip work for it.

I don't want them to do anything else. I asked where the bitching was, b/c I thought for sure this place would be full of setlist bitching.
I wish Pearl Jam played shows more like this, both in terms of length and having a thoughtfully-chosen setlist that remains more or less set in place for a whole tour.

The unexpected nature of the set lists is what sells out the shows, my evenbro. If they toured an album, then maybe, otherwise it would damage their brand

Literally rising from the ashes. Brilliant.
Thanks for explaining the joke.
I bet that post made your tiny penis feel just a little bit bigger.

I totally understand that, I just would prefer a different approach.
For the record, I think playing full albums in order is a bad idea too.

It's also what is actively keeping me away (I know I'm in the minority). This last tour was the first time I skipped an opportunity to see them within driving distance, but shoot...The odds of getting a drunken Eddie warbling through a Backspacer and Lightning Bolt-heavy setlist are just too high.
I can understand that. 2016 was a mixed bag.
It seems like they are doing TOTD just right, I just don't think the format would work for PJ

shorter shows and playing more or less the same setlist each night?
that sounds like a suckfest for both the fans and the band.
speeno, just stop it!
