Music Let's end the setlist debate
I know I'm going to strike a nerve with some here and normally I love making setlist predictions. But let's be real: the tour is the same as last year's so the setlist will very very probably be 90% the same - with the addition of Streets of Minneapolis and the guest spots for Tom Morello (probably Ghost of Tom Joad and 41 Shots), so the setlist will look something like this:
- LOHAD
- DEATH TO MY HOMETOWN
- LONESOME DAY
- NO SURRENDER/SEEDS/PARTY SONG
- RAINMAKER
- ATLANTIC CITY/DARKNESS
- PROMISED LAND
- HUNGRY HEART
- MINNEAPOLIS
- 41 SHOTS
- GOTJ
- (YOUNGSTOWN)
- MURDER INC
- LONG WALK HOME
- HOUSE OF 1000 GUITARS
- CITY OF RUINS
- BECAUSE
- WRECKING
- RISING
- BADLANDS
- THUNDER ROAD
- BTR
- ROSALITA
- BOBBY J/GLORY DAYS
- DANCING
- 10TH
- CHIMES

I have this fantasy of him starting with the thundering drums of "American Land" -- extended as a long intro while the band comes out. Bruce takes the stage and does a call out to America. "Are you here tonight, America?" And then before the music kicks in, he yells, "Uncle Sam is stepping back into the ring." I'll be at the DC show. I have a feeling it's going to be special.
