Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
The Long Way Around is a definite opener to my ears, reminding the drive, power and fun of Ted the Mechanic, I also love the chilled interlude of Ian G & Steve somewhere inbetween the song.
Remission Possible would take the turn of instrumental part of the show followed by the magnificient Man Alive – I’d die to hear that sound of time tickling live.
No Need to Shout has the power, and Don’s piano part would drive fans crazy.
Throw My Bones and Nothing At All – well, the hits – obviously, yes!
And The Address can be perfectly coupled with Hush as an encore,
September 8th, 2020 at 19:35The Long Way Round-Should’ve been the album opener.Would work well on stage.
Nothing At All- Seems to be the best of the singles.A catchy concert tune.
No Need To Shout- Retire Hell To Pay.Here’s the new sing-a-long chorus chant.
Power Of The Moon-Would be a great lead-in to Birds Of Prey
September 8th, 2020 at 20:13The long way round and were all the same in the dark is perfect live set!!!!
September 8th, 2020 at 21:22Throw My Bones
September 8th, 2020 at 22:07Drop the Weapon
We’re All the Same in the Dark
Nothing At All
No Need to Shout
The Long Way Round
The Power of the Moon
Remission Possible/Man Alive
And the Address
Nothing at all is absolutely amazing. The guitar and keyboard combination is stunning.
The Long Way Around has the energy to become a live classic.
The Power of the Moon: the deep of Deep Purple: classic song.
Drop the Weapon has the energy for the live set.
Drop Hush as an encore and replace it with And The Address and after that Remission Possible (with Steve’s amazing guitar).
September 8th, 2020 at 23:20Yes drop Peter Gunn or Green Onions before Hush and do the complete And The Address
September 8th, 2020 at 23:27instead of about 45 seconds of it like they with Peter Gunn or Green Onions. I’m Kinda suprised there aren’t more votes for What The What. It’s a great rock and roll number and that’s what Deep Purple is all about. Throw My Bones, Remission Possible & Man Alive should be there too. Right now I just want touring to happen!
Honestly the album in its entirety would be awesome
September 9th, 2020 at 00:24“Nothing At All” and “Throw My Bones” two classic album must be setlist , third song one faster sequel to “Time For Bedlam” is “The Long Way Around”, the fourth? … “No Need To Shout” or “Drop The Weapon” “, and of course” And the Address “as 00 song intro in concert or an ancore ” Hush “.
September 9th, 2020 at 04:07I can’t agree more with Giorgi!
September 9th, 2020 at 07:35why do you have to pick at least ons??. the album is very weak and certainly no live material. specially considering they tend to stay very close to the studio version these days. no extended solos no surprises….too bad.

September 9th, 2020 at 08:24Would like to see them play mainly the stuff off last 3 albums if possible.
September 9th, 2020 at 08:38@1 Giorgi, you’ve echoed my thoughts exactly!.
September 9th, 2020 at 14:21But hey, wouldn’t it be sweet if they also played that unreleased song called “Long time gone” from 20 years ago?.

Like them to play live full album live in Japan
September 9th, 2020 at 14:48As i take a look to the early results, i’m worried about Step by Step not getting the love it deserves. It’s, in my opinion, the greatest track in the album. I’m also aware that it may be difficult to pull that out live for the band.
September 9th, 2020 at 15:37It will be great to hear some tunes live from WHOOSH, but anything that comes will be replacing Infinite songs, so it will be 3 songs, if so, making the setlist.
Probably the singles – Man Alive, Nothing at All and Throw my bones.
My wishlist would be Power to the Moon and the Long Way Around …
Cheers !!!
September 9th, 2020 at 21:09None thank you
September 10th, 2020 at 02:06The problem is just limitation to 4 songs. I’m personally would prefer at least 6 songs (of cause Step by Step in).
September 10th, 2020 at 07:09My personal thought the current DP should play at least half of the set list Morse era songs.
I’m tired from almost the same set list over last 15+ years. Gillan unable to sang Mk2 songs any more, Morse never played it well due to his lack of improvisation compare to Great Ritchie.
Highway star as an opener, smoke, Speed King would be nice return (drop out completely black night, skow and hush), I would like them play something from HOBL, maybe something from PS (but not PS itself) and the rest Morse-era songs from 1996 to 2020.
Play it All!
September 10th, 2020 at 17:15@ 17 Rost- Since we are in a highly theoretical area, I’d even go so far as to suggest an All Morse-era set. 12-15 songs in the running order of your choice. Now that we have 7 albums to pick from, it would not be easy to decide what to leave out.Another poll for a rainy day ??
September 10th, 2020 at 17:46@17
September 11th, 2020 at 18:25Agreed. They should do an entire tour with Morse era songs only.
Here is a crack at a set list that properly balances old and new.
Highway Star
SKOW
Long Way Around
Throw My Bones
Speed King
Keyboard Solo
Perfect Strangers
Guitar Solo
Remission Possible
Man Alive
Lazy
Black Night
SOTW
Encore
September 12th, 2020 at 04:06Power of the Moon
And the Address
Hush
I think a good setlist would be
Highway Star
Fireball
Living Wreck
The Long Way Around
No One Came
Throw My Bones
Pictures Of Home
The Battle Rages On
Woman From Tokyo
Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming
Nothing At All
The Power Of The Moon
Fools
Knockin’ At Your Back Door
And The Address/Hush
Lazy
Perfect Strangers
Smoke On The Water
Encore
September 15th, 2020 at 15:09Speed King (with Bass & drum solo)
Black Night
You can’t do a cover of your own song and not put it on the setlist. I always felt like you can’t separate And the Address & Hush. That tandem has to be the encore.
Long Way Round and Throw My Bones are my other choices.
