Somewhere Else Posted Tue 26 Aug, 2008 9:05 PM |
I think it should all be off Ode to J. Smith...New rockin out Travis...with maybe an older gem encore like Last Train or More than Us, Sarah , thats not been played live too much?
Get goose bumps just thinking of this....
I know we all love and have our fav different old ones and I am not starting a thread on those preferences , but hey , this album is soo good and they MUST be a bit bored of Flowers by now !(and Neily still hasn't learnt the words) hehe
Anyone agree?

No. (IMO)
I love the boys coming to the front of the stage for a giant singalong to one of the most singable singalong songs ever. Its our closing anthem and i just cant imagine it anywhere else in the set. Such a happy song.
I like the setlists we have seen recently.
I think there has been 4 to 5 new songs in these shows, and the songs chosen seem to be the perfect choice.
However, i would love it if the choice of new songs stayed the same with maybe a wildcard extra song thrown in for good measure.
For the concert i go to, i would love to hear 'Before you were young' again. Because it sounds awesome live. Yes it realy is mind blowing!
I guess our choice of what we want to hear will change the more we listen to ode.
But in terms of the setlist i think 5 or 6 songs from the new album would be enough.
Recent setlists have put together (back to back, i think!) Closer, Sing, J Smith And Something Anything.
I think that might be my favourite section if repeated at the UK shows. ;-)
Having said all that, you know you could be right about flowers. I'll let you know after the concert.
Laugh out loud.

| I just watched all the songs live on youtube and id Love a full Ode Set. with a few hiddin gems in there thats why im gutted i didnt get to the Club tour i hope they do it again. I Think being real were gonna get a sort of 22 song set with alot of new tunes and the classics mixed. Id love a few tunes from left feild because ive seen them so meny times. But i remeber a interview ages ago with Dougie sayin youve got to remeber that every gig is somones first gig so you need to play it well for them. I could go without hearing Flowers Sing and Rain but i think thell all get played.If i had to pick a rare song to get played id go forrrr Good Day To Die cause it rocks live |

I love the fact that Travis have had unknown gems in their recent setlists because it really treats the big fans without confusing/boring the casual fans. I'd love Sarah live, but like Paul says, More Than Us would be brilliant too.
I don't think they should carry on playing FITW like that forever because it will get samey for them and I'm sure they've got other exciting ideas :D If they want to play it though, I'm not going to complain ;)
I'm not a big fan of Before You Were Young live, it was fingers-in-the-ears loud last time and I left the front row because of it :( Still enjoyed the rest from the back. |
