Does anyone else find it jarring when the band kicks into Lukin and then immediately flows into Not For You back-to-back in the setlist? Lukin is a 60 second jolt of pure aggression...and they segue into Not For You, which starts off like a slow but clearly lit fuse, building towards the inevitable explosion.

If they came up with a Sleight of Hand gesture that the crowd could make during the song, it would go over a lot better.

I hope Ed starts letting the crowd sing along, that's the only thing that's really missing from PJ shows..
Ed: "Was it age? or by consequence? Or was he moved by...**throws arms up and head back**...."
Crowd: "SLEIGHT OF HAAAAAAAAND"

And at the end, I hope they add a "Don't Stop Believin'" tag. That would be so sick.
EDIT: But instead of saying "South Detroit" he says the name of whatever city they're in. SO SWEET.
