[kj] [KJ] Pylon Tour Setlist poll....

[Rheinhold Squeegee]

Jaz will be pushing 56 years old by the time he hits the States. I get exhausted just watching him recently; it would be cruel to expect him to pull off that kind of extended shrieking for three hours.


He will invariably lose his voice for a few dates somewhere around, i'm going to say Portland.


I like Robert Smith and the Cure just fine but they are an entirely different animal when it comes to energy and intensity, IMO.

So let us cynical (realist?) gatherers predict the setlists for the upcoming shows.....

My bets, nothing from Hosannas, Democracy, OTG, BTATS,  doubtful anything from MMXII, andI am guessing a possibility of Depthcharge from AD.

5-6 Songs from Pylon, and the usual suspects of The Wait, Wardance, Requiem, Psyche, LLB, Pandemonium and Asteroid.

As much as I am looking forward to this tour, the main problem now for KJ is the length of their shows...with the frenetic nature of their tunes, along with their laziness and being at loggerheads on their archive we will never see the  output  that bands such as The Cure have done with 3 hour shows encapsulating much of their career.

I have never seen KJ play for longer than 1.5 hours, many times not even coming out for a second encore.  With each passing album and having the same core repertoire over the same length of show I can see albums snubbed increasing.
