Tim Sheehan - Vivian Campbell Interview Quotes
Live Setlist
"That's the never ending problem for us you know. I mean it's a good problem to have. But you know we're kind of beholden to the hits. And you can't please all of the people all of the time but you've got to assume that the majority of people coming to a show like this expect to hear the big, big hits. So we're always gonna play Sugar and Photograph and Rock Of Ages, Hysteria, Animal, Foolin and whatever else. You know there's so many hit songs that we kind of have to put in."
"And then you know we obviously want to try and make it a little bit different from last time we've been out. So we go a little bit deeper and feature you know different production points in the show that can be more dramatic from a lighting point of view. Maybe do a song like Rock On or you know something that's a deeper album cut like this year we've been talking about maybe doing Paper Sun from the Euphoria record. Which we haven't played in a long, long time. So you know that kind of stuff for the more hard core rock fan. But it's a never ending battle because you know you can't please all the people so."
