People always ask me why I go to so many gigs by Crowded House / Neil Finn - isn't each show essentially the same is a comment I get all the time. The variation in setlists is always one of the responses I throw back. Even so, in a moment of boredom I was surprised to work out that in just 3 shows of the recent UK tour that I attended (Cardiff, Wembley, RAH) the band played 42 different songs:

A Sigh
Better Be Home Soon
Black And White Boy
Chocolate Cake
Distant Sun
Don't Dream It's Over
Don't Stop Now
Fall At Your Feet
Fingers Of Love
Four Seasons
Hole In The River
I'm Only Sleeping
In My Command
In The Lowlands
Into Temptation
Italian Plastic
It's Only Natural
Locked Out
Love You Till The Day I Die
Mean To Me
Message To My Girl
Nails In My Feet
Nobody Wants To
People Are Like Suns
Pineapple Head
Pour Le Monde
Private Universe
Recurring Dream
Say That Again
She Called Up
She Goes On
She Walked Her Way Down
Silent House
Something So Strong
Those Were The Days
Throw Your Arms Around Me
Transit Lounge
Walking On The Spot
Weather With You
When You Come
World Where You Live
You Are The One To Make Me Cry

I think that's pretty amazing. What other band does that? I know Temple wasn't well represented but even 5 songs were played from that album.

So glad someone has posted this... the number of people who have scoffed at me going to 3 gigs on this tour...

There are even more songs if you add other gigs... we should make this a complete list covering the whole UK tour

My additions:

Manchester
Everything is Good for You
Not the Girl You Think You Are
There Goes God

Glasgow
Heaven That I'm Making
Whispers and Moans

The list grows...
I have a spreadsheet and have been keeping a tab Roll Eyes and following is what I have gathered, I make no guarantee that this is 100% accurate - this is just the UK and Ireland concerts.

A sigh
Better Be Home Soon
Black and White Boy
Born on the Bayou
Chocolate Cake
Distant Sun
Don't Dream its Over
Don't Stop Now
Dream

That makes a total of 61, OK so there are a few stray ones in there and I have missed a couple of off the cuff ones but that is a fairly stunning list I think you will agree. Neil can be forgiven forgetting his words from time to time if he has that many songs to sing!
that's absolutely incredible!!

I've been to one gig
(only because that's all I've had the chance to go to.....I'm 15.. I was 4 when Farewell to the World took place)

and I would never hesitate going to another gig.
because after looking at the diversity in the setlists... I know im guaranteed a different show to last time!!
