So we've got the new forum up, now let's see if we can get people posting again...
Out of all the Bluetones songs, which would you most like to hear them do live? You can have one song from each album and one extra (b-side/non studio album track)
*edit* Now the farewell tour has been officially announced I think you can see why we have this thread. As it's the last chance you could get to hear the Bluetones live then we'd like to know which songs would make it the perfect gig. I will be counting up all the votes and sending the results to the band, what they then chose to do with the information is up to them... you never know, it might get us a couple of surprises in the setlist for September.
To make it fair, everyone gets one vote for each category, if you're an indecisive bugger and picked 2 songs for a category, when I'm adding up this will count as half a vote for each song. If you put a song in the wrong category (eg album track in extra) then I will put it in the correct category and add as before. If you only voted for one or two songs rather than every category then these will still count as one vote in the relevant album. Now... go get your choices in! *edit*
Expecting To Fly: Return To The Last Chance Saloon: Science & Nature: Luxembourg: The Bluetones: A New Athens: Extra:

Expecting To Fly: Anything long enough to go to the bar Return To The Last Chance Saloon: BS, obv Science & Nature: Slackjaw Luxembourg: Here It Comes Again* The Bluetones: Surrendered A New Athens: Another trip to the bar Extra: Mine In The Morning
*That's three votes. THREE, and we live in a democracy...
Can I also lay claim to being the first person to be annoyed by these smileys? Bastards.

Personally I'd go for
Expecting To Fly: Time & Again Return To The Last Chance Saloon: Ames Science & Nature: Slack Jaw Luxembourg: You're No Fun Anymore The Bluetones: Surrendered A New Athens: The Day That Never Was Extra: The toughest choice of all. Although the Watchman is what I'd consider my favourite and never ever gets played, no one else ever seems to love it as much (except zorrro) and for a live song I'd want something everyone will enjoy. Glad To See Y'Back Again would make a beautiful but very depressing opener. Any b-side from the first album would go down well, but a lot of them got played for the ETF gigs... I think my final choice will have to be Vostok Of Love.

Expecting To Fly: The one about investing in things. They never play that one. Return To The Last Chance Saloon: Jub Jub Obviously, the last song they ever play live needs to be Broken Starr otherwise they're a massive bunch of wasters. FACT Science & Nature: Zorrro Luxembourg: Code Blue The Bluetones: Ummmm... I can't even think of a name for any song on that album. Wow. A New Athens: The Notes Between The Notes... Extra: Soup Du Jour... go on, i dare you.

I'd much rather listen to Luxembourg or RTTLCS. Is that a problem?
