I know. :)
But songs like FALAA, Burn, and Come together have been played this year, and now they seem to be completely left out. Just a bit more variety in the set lists, within the framework of the 2006 tour, would be nice. 8)
We had no Vision thing, Flood 2, or On the wire in Paris either. So I don't think I'm being unreasonable here.
I'd end this moment to be with you

War On Drugs hasn't been played for a while either...

Yeah, i hear you and agree some more variation would be nice especially when more recordings surface ;) But i guess the lack of certain songs (VT, War on Drugs, FALAA, Flood II...) right now has to do with Von's throat condition still...they're all songs that make use of those painful higher notes and wailing.
And i suppose with intense touring the throat has a hard time healing..
