I was so disappointed in the same old stale, stagnant setlist at the Anaheim show that I seriously thought about shouting out the name of each song before the band started playing it. You know, the way people shout out songs they want to hear at shows...except it's rare that the band actually obliges. In this case, since I already had the stagnant setlist memorized, it would have been interesting to see the band's reaction when I shouted out the next song, and every time it was the song that was actually played next.

How would they react to this? Would they feel disrespected and insulted? Would they change up the setlist mid-show to fuck up my "predictions"? Would it make them realize just how predictable they have become?

Anyone have the balls to actually try this at the next show?

I'd say, don't bother to shell out the $35 if you're that bored with the bands stage performance.

Dude you've got it all wrong, you might shout out "They stood up for love!" at the 4th song but they might play "All over you" instead and then save "TSUFL" as the 7th song, that crazy ever changing setlist order, all the same songs in different places is sure to keep us guessing!

I dunno.

The majority of the place would just think of you as a tool or not pay any attention to you if you did that.

Since the majority of the place are just casual fans, I would guess that they would be in awe of the fact that I was able to magically guess the next song before it was played. They'd probably think of me as a prophet and kiss my feet or rub my belly or something. lol.gif

If the people actually knew who he was, they'd know he doesn't do anything other than look at the ground, talk like a five year old with Down syndrome and be as awkward as you can be, thus making him an unlikely candidate. banana.gif
