What's left after Fenway? I'm thinking OTE and Hold On as rarities, but there has got to be something else planned.

I wouldn't be surprised if that Saturday show hits 35-40 songs. I imagine there will be guests and such too. They played a special cover by a Boston band, so it'll be interesting if they pull out something for Chicago too.

Like what? Wilco? A Pumpkins cover? Peter Cetera's "Glory of Love"?

Is Chicago actually from Chicago? I honestly don't know.

I thought they already covered this one. According to Live Footsteps, they haven't. As always, I hope for no covers.
I don't think they'Ll play Hold On since they played it in 2013. My rarity guesses are Other Side (skipped in 2013) and In The Moonlight. Wash, Rain, Oceans, Amongst The Waves and Lightning Bolt should not be played.

Exactly why I just knew for sure it would get played at Fenway.
I actually think they could pull off 25 or 6 to 4 pretty well. Get that horn section from that VH1 show to back them up. I don't know who the fuck would sing it tho. Maybe since Cetera's not in Chicago anymore he could sit in and sing it like Sting did in NYC.

This is why I think we might get it a second time. It's been over two years and they recently soundchecked it.
Other Side is a good guess though, I forgot they scratched that one in 2013. Fatal is another option I guess.

Jebus, the requests for this show from the Pit are terrible. It would be great to have one PJ concert in 2016 without a request and accompanying downer speech by Ed.

It's just terrible, and incredibly selfish to boot.
People are the worst.

Haha, I think the real stories are much worse!
Using your deceased relative/friend/pet as a bargaining chip to get a song played by your favourite band is just outrageous. Incredible narcissism.
