When I saw that they played only six songs from the album, I immediately thought of Prindle’s comment about the R. E. M. live album that came out after Around The Sun, the band’s most poorly received album: “SIX!!! THEY PLAY SIX SONGS FROM ONE OF THE MOST BORING ALBUMS EVER RELEASED BY A MAJOR ARTIST!”
Geddy Lee has called “Lakeside Park” a “lousy song” (I forget where, but he did, I’m not misremembering it) and it’s clearly a piece of filler (albeit one I personally like–I sometimes like filler tunes) so I’m stupefied to learn they went back to playing it on their last tour!
Surprised “Chain Lightning” wasn’t played live, that song seems like it would’ve been played live.
