The Ultimate Sting Setlist 2010

I've decided to sit out the Symphonicity (are you kidding?) tour, even if it probably sounds nice with full orchestra. Problem is I like about a third of the setlist, so I don't think I'll bother. I'm not a hater, I like singing his songs, but he doesn't sing his best work live mostly, and plays too many hits catering to the casual fans who probably would think he'd cheated them of a good time by not playing that certain song they expect to hear every fucking show. I've only seen him live once, and he played "Englishman in New York" with the trombone player rapping during the break, a cardinal sin and totally cornball. So yeah, setlist could be definitely improved on. And I really fucking HATE the song "Roxanne!" I would like to see that song retired for good, who cares? It sucks. However, on the bright side of things, Sting is different than other artists whose only good songs are the hits, where in their case the shows would really blow if they didn't stick with only the popular stuff. So anyway, let's make lemonade out of lemons and kick out my ultimate Sting setlist! YES!
