16 Jan 2012: it's the MLK Set
« on: January 15, 2012, 04:24:46 PM »
Rosalie spilled the beans this morning.  AL hasn't asked for suggestions yet, tho' she did post "A Change is Gonna Come" (DC's theme song) on FB.

I suspect DC will have the same effect on this set as he does on the 60's sets; we'll see.

BOS.  I thought I liked the studio version better, but the crowd singing background vocals is great.  (Although, I don't like when Bono introduces the guitar solo with a great big lounge act style "The Edge!")
