Another thing about pulling out some unexpected stuff is that it has to add 
some extra energy to the performance, since these are songs they have CHOSEN 
to play and will be fresh for them.  I suppose it just adds some inner 
excitement in Pete and Roger that could translate into especially inspired 
whole performances.  Watching the RAH 2000, however, Pete really seems to 
enjoy reminiscing and telling stories about his old tunes.
