    There seems to be some confusion on the order of the setlist there.

    Because the writer says they started the show sitting down (mentioning BOML, TITTL) but then goes on to talk about HC,PEF, ICTYW. The impression given is that they started with the acoustic set.

    I didnt' say it did matter but I think it's worth commenting if the setlist has been changed around to make it more suitable for Chinese audiences. There is no mention of ANY of the LROOE songs, for example.

    Well maybe the guy (i'm assuming) that wrote this blog was just relating his experience to friends....I don't really know what a 'Blog' is or how it works, he says:

    "Hotel California came up pretty early on in the set. The Long Road Out Of Eden tour has been going for a few years now, so I am guessing the set has been arranged long ago and not tailored to the Chinese or Asian audiences, otherwise I think they’d save it for the encore. Surprisingly though, there wasn’t a mass exodus after the song had ended!"

    Maybe TLROOE isn't that familiar to them? I don't know........but imo it was nice just to read anything about the concert

    Thanks for the posting of the review, TG! I love reading fan impressions of the concert and I appreciate the trouble you have taken to find and post the review.

    Like FP, I noted the fact that the blog seemed a bit off about the setlist, and wondered how much the setlist has actually been changed. I too am curious about such things and comment upon them. That is hardly unusual; indeed, it is quite natural to do so. Just because one notes such things doesn't mean one didn't enjoy the review. I know I did.

    Always in our hearts, Never forgotten

    Possibly the writer just didn't remember the setlist order very well - I know I struggled!!

    Nice to read some reviews. I had to laugh at them describing it as "a jolly good show".

    I got the impression this concert and audience had quite a different "feeling" to Bangkok - the review of Bangkok made it sound like that concert rocked
