I wonder if they changed the setlist during this time.
Yes maybe they’ve appropriately added the track “Hell” considering the past two years… 😎

This is good news. :up: Not sure if you were asking the question or not (S-Sense - whatdoesthatmean?) About getting back on the horse?? I think they are saying that they are now carrying on as normal. If you fall off a horse you get back on it at some point. :)

Anyone sensing a new single will launch alongside the tour?

I think there will be something coming along with the inevitable 'best of the best' compilation of Dreamworld*

*eurgh I still don't like the name of this tour :sick:

I hope so! :)

But it's quite difficult to launch a single for a greatest hits tour. New singles for best of albums tend to be anything but a hit: Was it worth it?, DJ culture, Flamboyant, Miracles, Together – Streets/CTMEOY may be the exception to the rule. ;)

All of the above are good songs but how many people with tickets for Dreamworld think of these songs in the first place? Moreover, what function would a promo single have when nearly every concert is sold out?
A blues would be in B flat, pain defining wisdom,
but the soul is in the high hat, programmed in the system.

No chance in playing "The calm before the storm" then?

DREAMWORLD Greatest Hits Tour RESCHEDULED until 2022

#233 Post by rashomon »

So latest news reports stating that the O2 will be out of action for a while - ‘months’ possibly?

The PSB concert is in 3 months so hoping that is enough time to get things sorted

Edit: thinking about it I guess the arena part has its own roof anyway so it might not be that disruptive to future events there … dunno

But they never had a single/new song for a GH *tour*
Would be nice to hear something new

Hope all goes ahead as planned

Perhaps the O2 may get a move on Rashomon as they will be losing too much money. :D

So less than 1 month to go for the start of the greatest hits tour. I guess it is really happening this time!

10th of May, at Teatro Arcimboldi in Italy.
I'll believe it when it happens.

Wish the tour debut would be live streamed, otherwise most fans will be experiencing it through shaky audience smartphone footage. Either way I'm glad it's getting closer.

Pete posted a story on Insta also yesterday about getting back to rehearsals

Maybe it is just me but after all the postponed events from the last two years …. everything seems to be approaching at a rapid pace this year
