So, assuming there are 24 songs (as I think he played in the 2020 shows), how many songs from which era/album do we expect to get an airing?
I'm guessing:
5 from Dog on a Chain
2 from California Sun
3 from World Peace/High School
3 from Quarry/Ringleader/Refusal
4 from the 1990s (post Bona Drag)
2 Bona Drag era
3 Smiths
and hoping (perhaps a little optimistically) for 2 new ones.

But what I'd like to hear:
5 from Dog
0 from CS
3 from WP/LIHS
2 from Q/ROTT/YOR
5 from post Bona 90s
3 from Bona era
3 Smith (but not the usual ones)
3 new

I'd like to hear:
Jim Jim Falls
Bobby Dont you think they Know
Knockabout World
What Kind of people live in these houses
I am not a dog on a chain
Staircase at the University
Home is a question mark
I wish you lonely
I like You
Mama lay across the riverbed
Seasick, yet still docked
Speedway
Sunny
National Front Disco
Wide to recieve
I dont mind if you forget me
Hairdresser on fire
Ouija board, ouija board
Still Ill
Well I wonder
I know its over
I am veronica (new)
My funeral (new)
I ex-love you (new)
 
I really want to hear him do
Suffer The Little Children, and of course some new ones.

School bell go: Ding! Dong! Ding!
The children all line up
They do what they are told
Take a little drink from the liar's cup…’


one of my faves from CS, would be great live.
 
I’d like to NOT hear:

Anything off CA Son

and also:

Everyday is Like Sunday
How Soon Is Now
Let Me kiss You
First of the Gang To Die
Irish Blood English Heart
I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris
Munich Air Disaster 1958
 
Nah, this would be great live..




Agree with hoping he doesn’t do those songs. Though I’d be surprised if he didn’t do Everyday, or even Soon Is Now.

Agreed... except I'll take FOTGTD as I haven't heard it live for quite some time.
 
5 IANADOAC
2 CS
2 WPINOYB/LIHS
3 YATQ/ROTT/YOR
4 post BD 90s
2 BD era

2 BOT
1 cover not been done before

1 Smiths one not been done before - Well I Wonder.
 
If not for the "X" factors of Alain Whyte back, no record deal and a new album recorded... I would've said to expect the same setlists as the 2 2020 shows:


...now I honestly don't know...
 
1 Smiths one not been done before - Well I Wonder.

Though as interesting as it would be
for fans to hear, I don’t feel it’s a song that would go over well live, guess we’d have to hear it though to see.

It would sound amazing if done correctly. If Life Is A Pigsty can be pulled off amazingly well live, so can Well I Wonder! Anything’s possible now with Alain back. The magic touch.

As much as I love WIW it just doesn’t have the groove or dynamic
of ‘Pigsty’. I was thinking, well Asleep was really nice live so maybe
WIW would work, but as perfect as it is, it’s closer to a dirge, a lovely dirge though.

Watch him do it tonight, and it brings down the Vegas house! :lbf:

So we ended up with:
3 from Dog
4 from California Son (well 3 + Chain Gang)
2 from WP/LIHS
2 from Quarry/ROTT/Refusal
7 from post Bona Drag 90s
1 Bona Drag
3 Smiths

All in all I'd have been pretty happy with that especially so many 1990s songs and the fact that we got some previously un-played Smiths.
Biggest disappointment is 4 covers out of 22 songs - thought he'd have been keen to play more from Dog on a Chain.
On past residencies, he's mixed up the setlists quite a lot every night so hoping for some more surprises, especially a new song.
 
Where is the new material!?

Paris?!!?!?! CA Son covers!??!?!

I must say, I do believe some Moz is better than no Moz - don’t get me wrong - but I also must say, I’m a bit perplexed by the set list so far.

When he could’ve been playing more Dog On A Chain he played Chain Gang instead. Wrong f***ing chain Moz.
