So what songs are you dying to hear ?
I used to absolutely love hearing all the really old songs, but now I've got wish list that's really heavy on songs from the last 5 or so years.
I've never heard "the snake" live, and I have visions of that song just being awesome live. I've been listening to Tears a lot, I should pick up the new one today, and then start listening to the last 3-4 albums again. ugh so excited for this tour. |

I still want St. Francis live but my wishlist includes some good old stuff that I've not heard live before (tonnes from FB, TOTY, COR) and new/unreleased tracks whether from FMRM or the new EDF album. Something about hearing an unreleased unheard FB song for the first time in person that just excites the %$#%& out of me. The same is true of songs he never plays and getting to hear them.

| well I love all the fb songs... and my vote is for more solo and catholics than pixies... not like i don't love the pixies but just that i have never seen fb solo... so there's a of his work that I haven't seen .... i am going to think about it and try to narrow it down to a few songs... it just blows your mind though trying to come up with a few songs.... it's kinda like having a wedding and only being able to invite 10 friends or so... |

I love your list. I might remove a little of the older stuff just because I'm madly in love with disc 2 of fast man raider man. I think I would be happy hearing it all live, lol.

Why would you say that St Francis wouldn't be on this one ? He hasn't had it around nearly as long as a lot of tracks that he's probably played a ton. But it was played on the last tour, so that's the only reason I could see it being left off this one.
I was a hawk and I just flew...yeah

Thallasocracy is my request-- in a venue where there is dancing. He should play it twice because it is too short for such a song of such magnitude!
I'd also like to hear You're Such a Wire, Superabound, His Kingly Cave, and Whispering Weeds.

| i think the only cure is that we all pay a billion dollars and fly off to an island and then fb can play a different album every day.... then everybody would be happy :) now ... i just got to scrounge up that billion dollars.....looking in my sofa... I have $0.85... it's a start at least. lol |

St. Francis has never been performed live (i think maybe once) because FB says he "can't remember the lyrics." That is why i doubt it'll be played.

Pixies: Mr. Grieves!!!!, Dancing the Manta Ray!!!, Wave of Mutilation (UK Surf), Hey, In Heaven (just as Omer said), Into the White, Motorway to Roswell, Ana
Orange: Brackish Boy, Parry The Wind, Two Spaces
TOTY: Superabound, Freedom Rock, Space IGDMG
Cult of Ray: Kicked in the Taco, Men in Black, You Ain't Me
Oddballs: Oddball, You Never Heard About Me, Man of Steel (even cooler if it were complete with timpani, castanets, and glockenspiel)
FB&C: Dog Gone, All My Ghosts, Steak 'N' Sabre
Pistolero: Western Star, Skeleton Man, 85 Weeks
Dog in the Sand: The Swimmer, Bullet, If it Takes All Night
BLD: Jet Black River, How You Went So Far, either Black Rider (both together preferably)
DW: Whiskey in your Shoes, Modern Age, Fields of Marigold
SMYT: Massif Central, My Favorite Kiss, Coastline
Honeycomb: My Life is in Storage, Selkie Bride, Another Velvet Nightmare
I don't have FMRM yet unfortunately.
If I hear Superabound, Brackish Boy, Wave of Mutilation (UK Surf), Dancing the Manta Ray, Oddball, and If it Takes All Night, I'll be very happy.

Only the first half? That beautiful guitar solo at the end is probably my favorite individual part of Honeycomb. |

1. The Black Rider
2. The Snake
3. Johnny Barleycorn
4. Freedom Rock
5. If Your Poison Gets You
6. Village Of The Sun
7. Wahtever Happened To Pong?
8. Thalassocracy
9. His Kingly Cave
10. Parry The Wind High, Low /
11. I Want Rock’n’Roll
12. All My Ghosts
13. Men In Black
14. Western Star
15. Massif Centrale
16. Robert Onion
17. The Scene
18. Two Reelers
19. Bullet
20. Fitzgerald
21. Elijah
22. The Swimmer
23. Chip Away Boy
24. Fast Man
25. In The Time Of My Ruin
26. I Think I’m Starting To Lose It
27. Calistan
28. Superabound
29. If It Takes All Night
30. Sing For Joy
31. Debaser
32. I’ve Been Tired
33. Speedy Marie
34. St Francis Dam Disaster
35. Selkie Bride
36. Los Angeles
37. Horrible Day
38. Manitoba
39. Don’t Ya Rile ‘Em
40. Pie In The Sky
Even with about 10 too many there's plenty of favourites left off. The man's too good! |

| First time poster. Does anyone know if he is touring with a full ensemble (piano, harpsichord, various guitars incl pedal steel, accoustic, electric, banjo, et al)? So many of his songs are great, but there are a selection, such as Bullet, Chipaway Boy, and St. Francis Damn Disaster that are beyond great because of the various progressions of sound from the beginning through the chorus. Take Chipaway Boy. To hear it from the beginning, with a saloon piano churning out a sympathetic chord pattern, joined like a cayote in the moonlight by a gently amped steel string, and then hear the interuption of the electric, and accoustic and bass pull it down into an avalanche where it gets ridden into the ground by a stagecoach of a drum beat, pressing faster that little piano melody - well that's just perfect. Same with Bullet. I used to listen to it with my headphones on and count the instruments as they joined in. I think I counted 7. So if he brings the band, i hope he brings the whole shootin' match. Otherwise, I'll catch him solo. |

| This new lineup may set the course for the setlists. I doubt he'll play any of the real wild shit. I bet it'll be pretty mellow. Hopefully lots of FMRM and HC. |

11. Billy Radcliffe
12. The Vanishing Spies
13. Hermaphroditos
14. I Switched You
15. The Big Hurt
16. My Life Is In Storage
17. Don’t Cry That Way
18. Le Cigare Volant
19. Raider Man
20. Honeycomb
21. Headache
22. Sir Rockaby
23. The Man Who Was Too Loud
24. Cecilia Ann
25. Suffering
26. Heloise
27. Blast Off / Tossed
28. Atom In My Heart
29. Big Red
30. Velvety
31. Hang On To Your Ego
32. Places Named After Numbers
