Actually, I'm kind of glad they don't. Knowing the set list takes away half the fun, in my opinion, because there's no shock value when you hear your favorite song. When I heard
SEASON'S CALL and
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, two amazing songs live (plus HYDE shirtless = amazing... I'm straight I swear >__>), I couldn't help but let out the most girly of girly screams. I was not expecting to hear those and they were definitely a very nice treat. Though I still wish there had been
JESUS CHRIST and
EVERGREEN =/
I probably won't be going to ANY of the shows this year, but I really can't decide between only FIVE songs if I can go. There are so many songs that I want to hear live, but probably won't be able to since they're becoming increasingly older.
1. JESUS CHRIST
2. EVERGREEN (any version, I don't care)
If they played one or both of these songs, then I could die with a smile on my face.
BUT, if they can't, there's always the alternative five.
1. PRAYER
2. MASQUERADE
3. HORIZON
4. MADE IN HEAVEN
5. I CAN FEEL
God damn it, I want so many other songs, too. Like
GLAMOROUS SKY,
FRUITS OF CHAOS,
UNEXPECTED [DIST.], and
PERFECT MOMENT. If I could have attended the FAITH tour in 2006... OH IF ONLY I could have attended the fucking FAITH tour ;_; - Seriously, I think I literally cried when I heard I missed one of the most epic concerts in history, and the IMF interview with HYDE didn't help sooth my pain. BUT luckily, I got a good amount of my favorite songs played in Baltimore. So that's good :3
Also, am I the only one who doesn't really have many wishes to many see
ROENTGEN songs live? Don't get me wrong,
ROENTGEN is UNFATHOMABLY amazing, but they don't make good live material. Not for a hard rock concert anyway.
SWEET DREAMS, while it did sound a lot like a ROENTGEN song, is an exception to this logic mainly because it has a medium-paced and powerful tempo whilst most of the
ROENTGEN songs are MUUUUUUCH slower and would only be good live if the ENTIRE set list was at a similar tempo or they do what they did on the USS Missouri and dedicate an entire part of the set list to acoustics/
ROENTGEN songs only. That's just my outlook on it, anyway. Feel free to disagree!
(In contrast, VAMPS have a rare quality known as stage presence, which means they can probably find a way to make the songs work live anyway. Take Moi dix Mois for example... amazing album [or at least one], but from what I hear... THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY, UNBELIEVABLY BORING LIVE)
Here's hoping they announce a date closer to me in the future... either that or a miracle happens and I'm transported to one of the lives.
