Since first seeing twisted in 1979,they are one of the best live bands.the problem with that is capturing it on a album.If I listen to them now it has to be a live cd or you tube live. To put out new music on tape to me just doesn't have the same impact. Heres what would be great How about playing some of the other songs of their catalog! I'm dumfounded . What is up with that. Bad boys of rock and roll, ill never grow up now,you know I cry,are just a few examples of songs that I would put up there with were not gonna take it. Great songs that are just as good! When I go to see other bands or follow them on you tube,they go back and play stuff from the first album or even rare material. They always pull out under the blade or shoot em down. Don't get me wrong love those songs but,start putting in other ones that maybe the newer fans never heard. They will love em! Their setlist is old and stale. They always end with smf. Though I read they put in it's only rock and roll a couple of times. Start adding in a lot of different songs and this will make the shows more interesting.

Where have you been? They have done everything from the super old stuff to the present live Many many times over the past 10 yeaars or so...

Every song you mentioned they done live.....{during this reunion}....

Maybe I'm wrong but where did they play bad boys,i'll never grow up and you know I cried more than maybe twice.Ive been to many shows in the last 13 yrs and its the same old thing.Again start adding totally new sets or it starts to get old!

You do have a point Bobcat... Although they HAVE to play certain songs for the "tourists"..

Only hard core Smf's like yourself would even know those songs!

PEACE

If you don't know a bands song, than the concert sucks.
In Osh Kosh, WI last year they played I Believe In Rock N Roll. First time I heard it live. IT WAS THE BOMB, Just Awesome!!
The crowd was confused as most never heard it b4. And people were saying that. I totally disagreed; rocked it out with people looking at me wierd
and saying "someone knows this song"..

Every one makes good points here. When you would see twisted back in the club days they would do covers and then put in one of their own and you would say I love that song oh, that was one of theirs- great song! I will say this, at the festivals they probably have to stay more the course but when they play any concerts in ny,nj, they should bring out a lot of stuff not played in a long time.

At the Old Bridge Hurricane Sandy show, they should have played rarer songs.

The band at the starland show and best buy should have brought out a lot of the first two albums.On a positive note to say a band is better live than on a album is a great compliment! Again this band is so much better live than in a studio.Or even better on a dvd.
