Let's figure Bruce and the band will play 20-25 songs per night.

5 from Magic.

3 from The Rising (The Rising, City of Ruins)

2 from Devils & Dust (Devils & Dust)

1-2 from GOTJ (Youngstown)

That's half the show. Maybe a TRACKS song, MAYBE a Seeger number
(maybe not), and that leaves only a few slots left for the back
catalogue some/most of us want to hear most, whether that's "Growin'
Up," "Glory Days, "She's the One," or "Tunnel of Love."

Personally, I DON'T want Bruce to be an "oldies" act, but I DO prefer
the first four albums to most of what came later.

I would imagine that we'd hear more than 5 songs from "Magic". Doesn't
he typically play the majority of tracks from whatever album it is
that he's touring behind at the time, especially in the early legs of
the tour?
