    I would love for them to drop YRGM, Jump, Panama as standards. From the last tour, if I had to drop a few they would be I'm the One, Pretty Woman, Atomic Punk. You know they're gonna drop some of those for new songs. I hope they throw in some gems like On Fire, Outta Love Again, Light Up the Sky. As long as they mix it up a little.
    When the shit hits the fan, close your mouth and duck.

    The show will probably open up with a song off the new album like Tattoo! You know they will play a bunch of stuff off the new album to promote it with older hits like Panama and Jump sprinkled in!

    Just for shits and giggles, I stumbled across this while looking for ticket info. for the Atlantic City show...

    This is from some dumbass website called "cheapatlanticcity.com"

    "Look for these fan favorite Van Halen songs as apart of the AC set list: Dreams, Poundcake, Without You, Without You, When It’s Love, Humans Being, Fire in the Hole, One I want, Jump, Right Now to name a few. "

    Can you believe that shit? Some people just need to be kept away from the internet. I'd love to meet the fucking moron who put that shit on their webpage.

    My thought exactly....it would be awesome to hear that live.

    But unfortunately I think only the true hardcore fans like us would dig it. The appeal simply isn't broad enough.

    Would also love Drop Dead Legs.

    Sadly, I want to see all the stuff that's been double guitar tracked and is pretty much impossible to do.

    Oh dear.

    odd enough. Back in the day VH was a couple of tours away from starting the show with a drum solo...
    (The joke is for everyone familiar with their old set lists)
    Trolls take heed...LOG OUT & FUCK OFF!!!

    Tour set list

    Let's be realistic, of course the set list is pretty much put together, but it would great to bring out a few classic deep cuts that they have not played in some time.........

    If the set is maybe 24 tunes or so, it would be great to get three or four old deep cuts in there, plus of course say four or five new tunes......and I know that they played a short set at the LA Forum, but hopefully that isn't the full set list.

    The hits are going to be there and we all know what we want to hear and not hear........

    Four songs I would love to see introduced into the set are Hear About it Later, Drop Dead Legs, In a Simple Rhyme, and The Full Bug.

    Songs off the new album I would love to hear live are Blood and Fire, As Is, Honeybabysweetiedoll, You and Your Blues, and China Town.......

    2012 Tour Set List Speculation

    I think it's a fair assumption that the band would want to try out any new songs from the set list at one of the three warm up gigs so that means that there will be 5 new songs.

    She’s The Woman
    Tattoo
    China Town
    Blood & Fire
    The Trouble with Never

    In fact if you assume they would want to play every song on the setlist at some point previously before the tour and that this show will be as long as the last then that gives you a set of

    You Really Got Me
    Runnin’ With The Devil
    She’s The Woman
    Somebody Get Me A Doctor
    Tattoo
    Everybody Wants Some!!
    The Trouble with Never
    Beautiful Girls
    Ice Cream Man
    China Town
    Dance The Night Away
    Hot For Teacher
    Blood & Fire
    Eddie’s Guitar Solo
    Panama
    Jump

    plus around 7 or 8 from the following list

    I’m The One
    Romeo Delight
    Atomic Punk
    So This is Love?
    Mean Street
    Pretty Woman
    Alex Van Halen drum solo
    I’ll Wait
    And the Cradle Will Rock
    Little Dreamer
    Little Guitars
    Jamie’s Cryin’

    So my guess is (in no particular order)

    You Really Got Me
    Runnin’ With The Devil
    She’s The Woman
    Somebody Get Me A Doctor
    Tattoo
    Alex Van Halen drum solo
    Everybody Wants Some!!
    The Trouble with Never
    Beautiful Girls
    Ice Cream Man
    China Town
    Dance The Night Away
    Hot For Teacher
    Blood & Fire
    Romeo Delight
    Atomic Punk
    So This is Love?
    Mean Street
    Pretty Woman
    Alex Van Halen drum solo
    And the Cradle Will Rock
    Little Dreamer
    Eddie’s Guitar Solo
    Panama
    Jump


    Just to be clear this isn't the setlist I want and I have no inside information.

    It's just my best guess but I would be surprised if I am more than a few songs out.

    Reasons for my choices of the 8 are

    There is bound to be a drum solo.
    I think Wolfie likes Romeo Delight as an opportunity to shine, it used to be an opener
    Roth seems to be a fan of Mean Street doing it on a TV show and acoustically in the last decade.
    Atomic Punk and So This is Love are big songs
    Pretty Woman was a hit (unfortunately)
    Little Dreamer or Jamie’s Cryin’ bit of a coin toss but LD slightly better known
    I'll Wait - Successful single. (They really shouldn't do it for a couple of reasons hopefully Roth may veto)

    hey, all you Roth Army soldiers. I posted this in the Louisville thread, but this looks like a better choice

    Last tour at opening night in CLT I texted setlist updates to one of the other members (I think it was at Von's site) during the show.

    since I'm gonna at opening night again (this time in KY), I could do the same, if we get a volunteer on the other end. Let me know.

    I thought about posting directly to the site from my phone, but it's just a bit too cumbersome for a simpleton like me.

    Dropping Atomic Punk? In 07, Everyone went nuts for that. I like OUTTA SPACE, Somewhere in the first 3-5 songs. That will get anyplace, anywhere in the country rock'n.

    Nope, and wouldn't hold much stock at all in the Forum setlist, since it was shortened so much...

    Just to be clear this isn't the setlist I want and I have no inside information.

    It's just my best guess but I would be surprised if I am more than a few songs out.
    I was pretty good at the start and end, usually ok for the first 13 and last 3 but I'm happy I got some of these wrong and never expected a changing set list with some deep cuts.

    Pretty sure we have Wolfgang to thank for that.
