While retaining a large portion of the set, the band made extraordinarily many changes from show to show.
Songs only performed a some of the shows:
Fireball
Into The Fire
Ted The Mechanic
Space Truckin'
Almost Human
Pictures Of Home
Bludsucker
Black Night
Watching The Sky
Hush
'69
Of course the largest surprise was the first permanent inclusion in a live set of Fools, almost 30 years after it was written and recorded for the Fireball album. Way to go, guys!
