So you think "Fire On High" will get a well deserved outing, back to Tightrope, stick with "Concerto" or something new/else? Could do Shine a Little Love with an extended twinkly bits intro like on Discovery; Night in the City; Eldorado Overture; or a new track or a new intro composition segwaying into a well known track. The other question is will I be able to resist not looking at reviews ahead of 17 October 2018 to find out?!

I've not checked out those video's too closely. I truly doubt I'll watch Wembley until after I see him. I want some suspense.

On the North American leg of the tour, he should go back to doing "Rock n Roll Is King". I wish he'd also do "Hold On Tight", and maybe even "Calling America". And I know it'll never happen, but wouldn't it be cool if he did songs like "Every Little Thing", "Lift Me Up", or even "Alright"?

Anything from Zoom would be ok in my book,there were some good songs on that album despite what people say such as Stranger on a Quiet Street, Moment in Paradise and State of Mind. I too think Hold on Tight should be sung or indeed any Time songs (but I would say that!)

Make way for the paramedics trying to revive me if they perform "Big Wheels!" Yes, that would be fantastic! Jeff could give you mouth to mouth resuscitation? But you're not into him that way... we'll call the paramedics for you! JL can just keep singing and we'll leave the medical help to the professionals. Everyone stays in their lanes, OK?

Well eloneen, I do recall, in a performance in the Hammersmith Apollo back in the early 90s, Part II performed Big Wheels. Kelly (bless 'im) on lead vocals. It was a bit good!!!

tremblinwilbury I'm sure it was a real treat! I wish I had the chance to see it done live, even by a tribute band.

Jeff's done 'Tightrope' for an opener and done 'Standin' In the Rain'. The only logical song for the next tour is 'Fire on High'! 'Prologue' and 'Twilight' would be so good but if Jeff did that I'd also want the rest of the album played too . I wouldn't be sad if 'Standin' In the Rain' was done again as it works brilliantly.

How about Eldorado's overture segueing into Can't Get It Out Of My Head?

Fire On High is be the most voted, we agree. The only problem is... it's an instrumental! If the band was a heavy-metal group or something like that... Not the case. Prologue + Twilight wins. If only it was played in the original key...
Another idea. What about starting off with Ticket to the Moon? Only Jeff and Richard/the other guy are visible. 'Remember the good old 1980's?..." and the band comes in over the instrumental break.
Apart from that, I love the fact that Twilight has it's Prologue. Why doesn't 'Can't Get It...' have its Overture?! That would be AMAZING and could even be the show opening.

Fire on High might be better for the first song of the encore, coming out of the dark all atmospheric.
Prologue and Twilight for me too, as main intro songs. Or just Prologue into any other song really, it was made to open gigs.

Fire On High as good a song as it is, is no opener simply because it's an instrumental. Maybe an encore like as been said but not an opener...
