I sure hope so.  Outside of the fact that I'm one of the (I'm assuming) few that has not heard a boot from this tour yet, the setlist has gotten so much more interesting since the show I saw in Tampa. 

The band are no strangers to live albums.  I'd almost be shocked if they didn't.

I was really hoping to hear more from David at the Tampa show.  He does quite a bit of backing vocals.  But his lead looks to be relegated to one (or no) songs a night.  I was lucky to get "Hawaii" in Tampa.  Either wear, he looks like he's having more fun than anyone else on the stage!

Will give a more detailed report when I have time.  But I can tell you they added "Hawaii" to the set and David sang lead, with Jeff (obviously) on falsetto.  As well as I can remember, nothing was sacrificed.  It was slotted 3rd between "Catch A Wave" and "Don't Back Down."

Fantastic show!

Thanks so much, Kirk!  I was getting bothered going through all of these posts and learning noting.  Your review was what I was looking for all along.  I couldn't make it to last night's show because of a wedding.  But after reading your review, I was reminded of seeing The Beach Boys and Brian there about 10 years ago.  I really don't like Chastain. 

Six more days till I fly to Tampa for the Straz Center show!

Eh, I'm not budging....over the two shows (mind you: only TWO SHOWS have happened)! we got: "All This Is That" "This Whole World" "Sail On Sailor" "Then I Kissed Her" "You're So Good To Me" "Don't Back Down"  "Cotton Fields" and "Forever."  Substantial deep cuts.  So at this point, we're just really pullling the two year old "Well, I want another cookie!!" fit.   The band will never completely satisfy ALL their fans--especially on the occasion of their 50th anniversary Reunion tour when the primary focus is simply that these guys are even sharing one stage TOGETHER.   To me, that the was the biggest mountain to climb.  The songs (whatever they play) are a bonus for me, at this point.  But that's just me!

I don't think people are pulling a fit.  I think it's more a healthy conversation of songs we would add to the setlist, if we had that power.  It doesn't always have to be an argument.

I would hope they get some variety, I dot see them for a month and I'm not expecting this same set list

I hope you're right.  I know I took some liberties with the subject header.  But after seeing no new songs in night two, I thought (at the very least) it's worth discussing songs not making the cut.

As much as I love (and hope to hear in Tampa) Cotton Fields & Disney Girls, I'm still hopeful songs such as Lady Lynda and Deirdre might get cycled in at some point.

Are their any songs you are surprised they're not doing on this tour?  As pleased as I am with the setlist, I'm a little surprised it's not more Pet Sounds/Smile Sessions heavy.  Maybe Brian is sick of performing them live.  But I was really hoping to hear songs like "I Know There's An Answer" with all original leads present.

Since this is my first post, I also thought I'd say Hello.  I've lurked here for years.  It was due time I made t official.

Cheers,

Bill
