Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Jay on July 03, 2012, 09:43:32 PM A televised 4th of July celebration concert would have been an ideal way to boost promotion of the tour and new album even further.
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Justin on July 03, 2012, 09:46:19 PM Pixel, what's this about a shortened set for tomorrow night's show? I recall you mentioning that a while back also but forgot why they're doing that?
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: pixletwin on July 03, 2012, 11:10:42 PM Pixel, what's this about a shortened set for tomorrow night's show? I recall you mentioning that a while back also but forgot why they're doing that? It's essentially a festival. It will open with a talent show. Then Scott McSomebody from American idol will sing. Then The Beach Boys. Then fireworks. Somewhere in there I guess they are including a fly over from the USAF. It has televised to the US Military and their families all over the world. I am all for patriotism and such, but when I found out what this show really was and that the Boys would only be taking the stage for about an hour, I was pretty upset. Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Justin on July 03, 2012, 11:24:18 PM Yes I remember now. That's a real bummer. I do hope that they at least pack the show with some good tunes for ya. And hopefully they don't get Scott McSomebody to join them for a duet on "Wouldn't It Be Something."
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Aegir on July 04, 2012, 01:23:05 PM Maybe they'll play "4th of July" ! I doubt it though.
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Shady on July 04, 2012, 06:04:20 PM Woah!, That's a big stadium..
Hope they get a good turnout Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: rn57 on July 04, 2012, 06:49:15 PM Well....with a setup like this, maybe the guys will sing The Star Spangled Banner (complete with Mike doing "Oh Saaaay" and creak sound effect). But there won't be an Uncle Sam suit. In the old days even foreign folk like Mick Jagger could run around onstage in variations of the Sam getup but it is now an established law of rock'n'roll that only Alice Cooper dresses like the I Want You guy. Which is pretty much as it should be.
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: pixletwin on July 04, 2012, 11:56:51 PM Fun. Pretty close to sold out. Scott McWhatever was dreary and sappy. There were a lot of dancing numbers.

And no teleprompter? Was it on the floor or just out of view in this shot?

And Brian doesn't really need the teleprompter (at least not for the tunes he sang last night). It's a crutch. Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Justin on July 05, 2012, 10:57:46 AM I thought about that, considering it was mainly a greatest hits show I thought he had it easy and maybe only did lead on "Surfer Girl" but they also did "TWGMTR" whcih I assumed (for some reason) that he would've need some assistance on that tune. Good call on the QVC and Fallon shows.
Anyway, it's great to see Brian up there, singing, happy and confident. Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Rocker on July 06, 2012, 04:10:00 AM Facebook:

That would've been sweeet.
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Ziggy Stardust on July 06, 2012, 11:04:14 AM Actually, since they have soo much material and songs to play, why don't they do interludes/teasers/intro/outro of some even more obscure material more often? that would be awesome

They're doing pretty well as is anyway!
Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Ziggy Stardust on July 06, 2012, 11:30:17 AM Yeah no kidding Ziggy...they could spice up the setlist even more by adding just a few fragments of other songs--not that the setlist needs spicing. They're doing pretty well as is anyway! Yeah i mean i'm not complaining, setlists has been amazing so far and great fanservice! but that wouldn't hurt, since it's such a special tour.. play a little 'Til I Die intro before All This Is That, could be a nice mix, etc etc Title: Re: Show 44: Stadium Of Fire - Provo, UT 7/4/12 Post by: Justin on July 06, 2012, 11:37:45 AM In fact, yeah, they can pull it off just with the band doing the little parts themselves. The guys don't actually have to sing, really, just the band play those first eerie notes of "Till I Die" and then segue right into whatver song. They can do that for a few other songs with iconic intros. But I guess a show full of little snippets and teases would really be cruel for the audience!
