To all the people who get to see 30 Seconds To Mars on the Taste of Chaos or the headlining shows they've added, and are bitching about set list choices...
STOP BITCHING ABOUT THE SET LIST! It's a tour to promote ABL cd, NOT the S/T cd. Be glad you're even getting one S/T song more times then not. Remember, here's how it works. 1st cd, promote that. 2nd cd, promote that with one or two old songs thrown in. 3rd cd, promote that for at least half the show then do songs from the previous two cds. Until a band has at least 5 cd's to their name, those are the time honored rules for bands on tour. It doesn't change just because you think it should for this particular band.
So shut up, take what you get when you buy tickets and go to the show, or don't buy the tickets and leave them for the people who appreciate being able to see the band regardless of what music they're playing.
And before anyone starts with me about being a newbie, I don't like Attack, The Kill is not my favorite song, and From Yesterday doesn't make me cream my jeans, but they can play The Story all damn day long in my opinion. I started listening to the band BEFORE ABL came out and it was accoustic versions of S/T songs that hooked me on the music.
There, I'm done.
