I'd love that one...seems unlikely if they're already playing Ready For Drowning and (possibly) My Little Empire though, plus presumably Tolerate, YSTS, Everlasting, maybe Tsunami...

Black Dog would be great. I'll let them play that one!

Be Natural would be hard to make work acoustically. Black Dog is fucking beautiful live and should replace The Everlasting forever.

Agreed.

I'd love them to do My Little Empire on the tour - the songs revealed for possible setlist returns are amongst my dream choices so far, so I'm pleased. Despite there having been nothing heard from the album yet, I'm getting a very positive feeling about the campaign with these setlist choices and even with the naming of some b-sides for some reason.

It does almost seem like they've finally listened to us.

Speak for yourself, JFPL listened to me and this all sounds a thousand times removed from that rebirth.

Dare we hope for a set full of random songs?!

As a primary member of the 'My Little Empire' fan club, I am really happy about this.

Yeah, I've not seen it since then, which is weird as I thought I'd seen it quite a lot but its only 14 times.

I think the last time I saw it acoustic must have been the first Truth tour, can't really remember if it was any good but its definitely a much better starting point than the everlasting.

I reckon something from the Truth album will be dropped as I can't see them really playing 6 (!) songs from it, IE all 4 singles from the album and then Ready For Drowning and My Little Empire. Maybe they'll drop YSTS!
Be nice to hear an acoustic version of Empire, a very good song indeed. Like people have said, be great to hear Black Dog or one of my favourites - You're Tender and You're Tired.

They won't drop the truth singles...I doubt James will play the other two acoustic at the same night, or even very often. More than likely after a while he'll go back to small black flowers and everlasting...
