^^ I genuinely don't know... I had heard that in some shows, they originally intended to play all of Mindcrime I & II btb, but this made the show too long for some venue curfews, meaning it was much truncated....
 
I'd imagine that by next June, they will have got OM II out of their systems and play a more even mix from across their back catalogue....Smile

They just released an album of cover songs last week too, so they might be including some of these songs.

LOL

Not for Queensryche, O:M II is quite possible the only 1 star album I have listened to in the last three years.
