I wouldn't mind if they just never play ToL & TC again. At least not in the versions they played the last so many years...

Temple of Love Live sucks.
Such a great song otherwise.

As Paint it black pointed this out: nowadays songs are played in way too much hurry; to me it's a nice message: we're (well, at least A.E.) only for your money or lets-do-this-s**t-and-go-drink-they-will-be-happy-whatever-we-do.
But, to point some particular new-disasters: Logic, NTTC, TOL.

TOL was fine up until the end of the Overbombing tour.
All the 97-98 rearrangements of the old songs are cack (with the possible exception of Blood Money).
There are Pearson-era songs that don't work as well with the current line-up.
But they all work well with the right line-up playing them...

What you wrote Czuczu is a bit obvious, imo. (No offense indented).
And to be even more obvious, what you also wrote but not that straight: for some only version played by right-one line-up is good.

So does that leave anything for the
current line-up to play?

I like a lot of what they do - NTTC and RAAHP, RIH are all excellent interpretations.
I just wish they'd gone back to the original studio arrangements as a starting point for some other older material rather than keeping the simplified sped up versions.
