Which is great too, I'd love to have this chance !
I could happily live the rest of my life with a small band on my shoulder that plays the same songs live over and over and over... but I can see your point, mralphabet
It does seem a shame they stick to playing the same 30-40 songs when they have one of the finest back catalogues in music with almost 300 songs.
Burn then fascination street, never enough, wrong number?
More than likely. Thing is, Robert has no idea what the South African crowd wants really. Not having played there ever is going to make picking a set kind of hard. Going safe is a win win I guess

Opening with "sun city" instead of "plainsong" would have been a surefire winner

I think it's Robert trying to be eco friendly sticking to same setlists. It means he doesn't have to waste paper printing out setlists for the band as they know what songs are coming next.
Wowww I didn't consider that hypothesis! Nice one
Dinner's over here, I've switched to meringue baking... let me know if anything mindblowing happens

fiveswinglive is probably working right now. It's a bad time of the day for our friends in US... BTW, I'm thinking how to get the days off for all Australian shows in May...
Suddenly contract the flu?
I used that one already..went with "need to take my dog to the vet"
Also, maybe there are people that couldn't go to the first one and that are happy to have another chance this soon to listen to those songs ?
Or maybe his thinking is: over 60.000 of people come to Hyde Park to listen to this set and they were happy so I'll take the same set to RSA to make the people there happy too.
But I don't see And I don't feel But tightly hold up silently My hands before my fading eyes And in my eyes Your smile
I mistook stars reflected in a pond at night for those in the sky.
