Red Lenses sucks IMO - just a horrible song

With Neil not playing the electronic kit this tour I am not seeing how Red Lenses is even possible

Same with "rumors" of them playing Red Sector A or Mystic Rhythms

Definitely take Kid Gloves

Why this band is in love with their obscurish 80s material? I will cry and miss them when they retire, but if those are the big surprise songs this tour, maybe its time. they should have paid attention to all the setlist sominex on CA tour.

I like, anything new and different I'm all for but I do agree this is not what I would be jumping towards. Whoever brought up neils kit, after listening to Red Lenses I don't think he really necessarily needs it to pull this song off for the most part. In fact I can't really think of a lot of songs that he absolutely needs that electronic kit except maybe like Red Sector A/Mystic Rhythms. In fact the majority of those power windows songs on the last tour he did not need that kit. Edited by mrfriendly

Theres a live clip of red lenses on youtube from the HYF tour and neil does play it on the electronic but again I don't think he necessarily needs it. I mean he regularly plays the trees now on that kit but when that song was written he of course didn't use electronics. Since we know he will not have that back kit this tour had me thinking what songs he actually uses that on and I'm realizing it really is not a lot, what I can think of from the last couple tours is: Clockwork Angels, Red Sector A, Mystic Rhythms, The Trees and of course the drum solo. Makes sense that he just decided to not bother bringing it. Am I missing anything from that list?

Sounds like a good candidate for alternates - night A gets Kid Gloves, night B gets Red Lenses. Works for me, as I've seen neither of these live.

 

the swapping makes sense but then again just realized they did a grand designs - body electric - territories run last tour, so they are not opposed to the run of deep cuts in one set, lol.

 

after what FOH said i could definitely see red lenses being a good spot for some interesting visuals

Red Lenses is worth it for the drums alone.

So, according to Johnny's source so far we've got 1. Far Cry with a Hemi Prelude intro, 2. Red Lenses, 3. Kid Gloves and 4. The Anarchist. I can live with that. I really like Far Cry and The Anarchist and any little bit of Hemispheres should be cool. Edited by CaressMySteel

those of us younger than 45 can now see one of alex's best solos in kid gloves

 

red lenses is a head-scratcher but they seem to be doing the opposite of what folks on TRF want them to do, so maybe we should all talk about how we DON'T want to hear xanadu and jacob's ladder. reverse psychology or some shit

Are people that desperate for information they'll believe anything someone posts?

 

he's obviously telling the truth, he even told us that he has a source! what more do you need?
