Springsteen<\/a> and The E Street Band shook up their setlist from night to night at the start of the tour, it appears the band has hit on a steady pattern for their show. The setlist began with covers of Prince and a collection of Springsteen\u2019s own deep cuts. Now, The Boss is performing the same set every night, with a rare cover of The Clash thrown in for good measure. Fans are less than pleased with the songs that remain, though, and called on Springsteen to replace some tracks. <\/p>\nA fan wrote: \u201cI\u2019ve seen the current show a couple of times now and I\u2019ve gotta say, the lack of not even ONE setlist change up is wild. Don\u2019t get me wrong, it\u2019s a great show, and I understand that there is a theme being presented \u2013 but why not shake it up at least a tiny bit once every few shows?<\/p>\n
\u201cOut in the Street<\/em> for Two Hearts<\/em>? Across the Border<\/em> somewhere? Maybe throw in World\u2019s Apart<\/em> or Radio Nowhere<\/em>? Hell \u2013 I\u2019m still not sure how Because the Night<\/em> fits the theme of this tour at all. It was a relative rarity for some years, but has kinda been beaten to death recently? Anyway, yeah, just curious if anyone is with me or has thought the same. It definitely seems a bit out of character for the band, even compared to the relatively static nature of last tour\u2026\u201d<\/p>\nFans were quick to agree with the above post, with one Springsteen fanatic suggesting songs rehearsed for the tour were yet to appear on the setlist. They wrote: \u201cI read somewhere that when they were rehearsing for the tour, one of the songs they were doing was Rocky Ground<\/em>. Surprised it hasn\u2019t made it to the setlist since it seems perfect for this tour.\u201d<\/p>\nAnother added: \u201cHe actually swapped out two or three songs in San Francisco. No idea why, but it seems the setlist has been pretty static otherwise. I love Because the Night<\/em>, but I agree that it seems like an odd fit for the tour.\u201d<\/p>\nA third wrote: \u201cI mean, this is a curated thing. Have y\u2019all seen some of the writing and notes The Boss keeps? When he thought of going on the road, I think he did it specifically by putting together this set list. And then Steve does all the arranging. I think some of the songs, specifically Because The Night<\/em>, are in there because they\u2019re part of the songs The Boss believes he shouldn\u2019t walk out without playing, but perhaps more importantly, he is featuring all his bandmates. <\/p>\n\u201cEach member has at least one or two moments to shine this set. As an aside, for what it\u2019s worth, he did do Purple Rain<\/em> in Minnesota. I think when he\u2019s not making such a big statement or in Better Days<\/em> (pun intended) you\u2019ll see the band loosen it up and The Boss\u2019ll call the audibles, etc. <\/p>\n\u201cA lot of people here have been following this band for a long time. If Bruce was compelled to shuffle the set, he would have done it, and if he is in the future, he will. This isn\u2019t the usual self-described \u2018bar band\u2019 tour.\u201d<\/p>\n
