Rocky and Selfish Jean. More exciting. Though saying that, Chinese Blues is a GREAT song to start a gig. :)

This issue was circulating in my head all this time! lol

"Chinese Blues" is great for start a gig but definitely this DO-RE-MI intro has better transition with "Selfish Jean"

Oohh I just realized you're comparing Rocky + selfish Jean with DO-RE-MI + Chinese Blues! ...
I was thinking what songs is better with this new intro from the 'sound of silence' film :)
(Here in Lima the first song wasn't Chinese Blues, wasSelfish Jean and sounded amazing) ...lol

Nope...

But already i prefer a lot Do-re-mi intro with Chinese Blues. That sound and lights are pretty cool

I know, in Lima the intro is do-re-mi and Selfish Jean

*Woot*

WOW O.O
They're both really cool and innovative=D

Personally I'd go for Rocky + Selfish Jean.The wrestling robes get up is just awesome!What a sight=D

But on the other hand I really like the sound combination of Do-Re-Mi + Chinese Blues too;D Great song to start with and the effects and lighting's fantastic!

Overall,I think Travis did it right..Do-Re-Mi + Chinese Blues really goes with the indoor gig theme while Rocky + Selfish Jean combination suited the outdoor gig theme better.

Rocky + Selfish Jean, but then that's probably to do with the fact I like the song a lot more.

I loved it when they opened with Happy to Hang Around on the 12 Memories tour. It's just super powerful and gritty.

Yeah, its effect was even more powerful after hearing it from soundcheck, it sounded quite raw. But from these two choices it's the Rocky theme. They could start any song with it lol.

I love the Rocky-thing most, maybe because it's the only intro I've ever heard live. But it looks way better if they do it in a dark room with the light effects. Woah, I'm still getting excited when I think about that opening in Zurich...

I would go with the Rocky intro, but I am excited to see what intro they use for the US tour.
