joe has made a few alterations to his set list, as he approaches the midway point of his 2015 Tour.

Shadows with it's extended instrumental jam, has made way for Turn To Stone with an extended instrumental jam. I.L.B.T.'s has come and gone... and then returned again. I believe Joe doesn't perform it if he sees children in the audience. Lucky That Way has been added to the set list, at the expense of Pretty Maids All In A Row.

Given that it was on the Hotel California album, as well as a few Eagles compilation albums, Pretty Maids All In A Row is arguably Joe's top selling track. It doesn't seem to suit his live audience though.

A little feedback. Here's a link to some fan's reviews and photos, going back a few years, from the ticketmaster website.

I have mixed feelings. I'm thrilled TTS is back but I was looking forward to Shadows. Oh well, one can't have everything. As far as PMAIAR, while I adore that song, since I heard it on the Eagles tour I have no problem with it being dropped to make room for LTW.

I have made my feelings known before about ILBTs. I sure hope there are kids in the New Hampshire audience.

I wonder if Joe's ever had a member of the audience yelling for him not to play a track. :grin:

From the YouTube footage I've seen, Joe doesn't even attempt to justify the inclusion of I.L.B.T.'s, on this tour, as he would always do in the past, by means of an apologetic (and funny) introduction. I reckon All Night Long is a much better encore than I.L.B.T.'s.
