Exactly.

Could be an albatross.

Those are exactly my thoughts.

It's usually the first week of May when they start playing. But yeah, the crew is usually there earlier.

So, Simon was on a retainer contract. Confirmed by Bruce. Also, it seems like Nicko was hurting a lot during 2024 leg, especially the US shows, which explains some subpar performances there. And it kinda makes sense they made the decision to run the set with Simon at that point. Nice that Bruce...

Prodigal Son or Killers would fit the bill too IMO.

I'd say there is a 90% chance of Rime being played.

Mother Russia. Now that one would get that reaction for sure. Strangely enough, I think that mystery song could actually be Prodigal Son as a tribute to Paul (but more realistically Killers, Infinite Dreams or Only The Good Die Young).

I think that might be a shout. Phantom was hinted and Bruce wants to sing the other two.

Not until the first week of May. They never did. They probably played a few songs in Perth with Simon last year.

So, they played together in Perth last year, I assume. And that's where the decision to hire Simon permanently was made. I think there was 0 other instances where the whole band was together and I doubt they would do a random rehearsal mid-tour. Btw, I would take that spoiler song + Rime from...

Yup. The 2nd guitar he shows, is the stolen one. That's the 2nd prototype. Also the 2008 tour was the last tour, where H carried 5 guitars or less. During 2009, it was 4 signature Jacksons, #1 Strat, LP Goldtop, SG and the Jackson double neck.

That's the 1st 2008 (plane) leg. During the 2nd leg, the cream Strat was gone and the production prototypes (2nd prototypes) were present. #1 sunburst Strat was still there. 2nd leg was 4 Jacksons, #1 sunburst Strat and the SG.

Cases in the Ovation ad during TBOS tour. This one in better quality.

Revelations won't be played as Bruce hinted that he'll be playing it with the solo band.
