but still, 12 songs is 12 songs. and that's just your opinion. i personally love when bands do cover songs. i think it's awesome. especially a song like let go...boys like girls did an AMAZING cover job of that. and live it is SO completely amazing!!! and they could bring out an old song now if they wanted to... i'm not trying to be rude. i'm just saying i wish they would play longer setlists. and they could... b/c they're not doing their whole cd. and they could do a cover song. they don't need to have more than one cd to have a decent setlist. the first time i saw lifehouse they only had one cd out and they did the whole cd plus one... which was 13 songs.

 

If they played the whole album then a cover song I wouldn't have any qualms about a cover being played. Back in June they headlined here and only played 8 songs, excluding the cover. I'd rather have seen any of the other album tracks than Let Go. Nothing against the song, but I'd much rather see their own material. So yes, that is my opinion and if you agree or disagree with it then that's fine. :)

 

If they wanted to bring out the old songs they wouldn't have told people over the internet to stop sharing them. If the band don't want them in the public domain like that, I doubt they'll play it on stage.

 

You're right. You don't need to have more than one album to have a decent setlist. But it helps. Hell, I saw Avril Lavigne a couple of months back, she has 3 albums worth of material yet she played the same song twice and played a b-side as well. When you have 3 albums you can mix a set up like that but until Boys Like Girls stop touring out a 2/3 year old album, their set's can't realistically be any longer than 45 minutes.

 

Oh and don't worry, I know you aren't meaning to be rude (you weren't rude anyway). I don't mean to be as much as a pain as I probably have been. :)
