The show itself was the same setlist as<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve seen on the other US dates, with a couple of additions. Toward the end they<br \/>\nperformed Somewhere In America&#8230;(honoring someone&#8217;s request during the<br \/>\nsoundcheck, Dave said). And then they brought out Mitch Ryder who sang Devil<br \/>\nWith The Blue Dress, in a slower, R&#038;B style than his 60&#8217;s hit Detroit Wheels<br \/>\nversion. That was fun, but I&#8217;d probably have rather seen some musicians sit in<br \/>\n(David McMurray for example). The guys definitely were pumped to be in Detroit<br \/>\nbut other than these two songs I got the impression it could have been any<br \/>\nother date on the tour. I guess they&#8217;ve rehearsed what they&#8217;ve rehearsed and<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s what people are gonna get this time around. I wasn&#8217;t disappointed, but<br \/>\nwasn&#8217;t blown away, either.<\/p>\n<p>With thanks to Steve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sorry this is not a timely report but since I attended the show at the Majestic last Friday I should offer some comments.
