This turned out to be nothing more than a standard appearance to promote the current tour, so the song was “Superman Tonight”.
Now that I’ve heard ‘Superman Tonight’ performed live by the band in person, the televised performances of the song don’t seem to have the same punch. The performance was fine–but didn’t seem to have any special punch to it.
Richie was showing off the arms again. He’s really coming into his own again on this tour. Also, I like the shiny shirt/vest combo on him.
Jon was actually wearing a black leather shirt for the first time in a long time. Jon with blond hair, wearing leather, and showing off the chest hair is just about the best thing ever.
Personally, I still think the band should have chosen one of the more high-octane songs from The Circle as the next single. This would have been the perfect opportunity to introduce the song. It might have helped give the album one last big push.
