Opening song for Under the Big Top Tour?

[LI BANANA REPUBLICS]

Here is your chance to predict the opening song for the Under the Big Top Tour.
The winner will be announced on April 24, 2010.
Post your choice here and let's see how people pick the new opening song by Jimmy.

I'll go outside the box and place a long shot on " Toes "
Why not start with a cover that fits his style.

[SeattleParrotHead]

Safe guess is... 'Big Top' - another good candidate is 'Carnival World.'

[rich_big]

Toes (meaning the ZB song I assume) would be great. I wish he would bring back On The Road Again as the opener…..

[Lightning Bolt]

I think Rhumba Man would be a great opener, a little funkier and a
great opening line for every audience...

"well, I'm the same ol' guy I used to be... I haven't changed at all"

I'd follow it right up with Big Top...

[Cincy'sOwnDrunk]

My guess would be Carnival World. Upbeat the way he starts most shows and appropriate title.

[Illini Parrothead]

i'd have to go with Big Top, would be sweet if it was Landfall, but highly doubt it

my big underdog pick is Turn Up the Heat and Chill the Rose (starts the mood lol)

[HurricaneSeason]

Nobody From Nowhere.

And, ha ha, hopefully he won't play Turn Up The Heat... and he'll play actual songs from the album...

[ScarletB]

Nobody From Nowhere.

And, ha ha, hopefully he won't play Turn Up The Heat... and he'll play actual songs from the album...

This is my pick as well, I think Big Top is going to be the song they play when they run the parking lot video. And if he sings "Turn up the heat..." I hope it's the last song before intermission so I beat the ladies room crowd!

[C-Dawg]

He's gonna do another cover....."She's a Beauty" by the Tubes..... ....."Step right up, and don't be shy"

[PackerPhan]

I will go with "Wings". Not too fast and not too slow. And I'm guessing "Hot Hot Hot" doesn't count.

[Mplsfins]

I was just thinking about this down in Florida, I think a Jimmy and Mac version of Toes would be fantastic. Even better than 5 o'clock. Jimmy's live rendition with Zac on CMT is great. I think they could do this song more justice than 5 o'clock.

[JollyMon66]

I'd like to hear Day-O as in the Harry Belafonte number. I think hearing "DAY-OOOOoooooo" booming over the sound system as Jimmy and crew comes on stage would be an awesome start....much like Hot Hot Hot.

[capnbobby]

I'm going to go with the obvious choice and predict that the opening song will be "Big Top."

Fins Up!

Toes (meaning the ZB song I assume) would be great. I wish he would bring back On The Road Again as the opener…..

That would good opening song. I really like his ver of that song.

[Volcano5270]

I would like to hear Bama Breeze

[KruzinParrots]

Under The Big Top

[FinnsU.P.]

My guess would be Carnival World. Upbeat the way he starts most shows and appropriate title.

I love "Toes" and hope he and Mac sing it sometime during the concert, but I agree, I think he'll start with something more upbeat like "Carnival World."

[changingchannels]

I say go for the ones below although it probably will be Carnival World or Big Top which i think are to mellow.

Jump In The Line(drop hot,hot,hot)

Kinja
Barometer Soup
Perrier Blues
Landfall
King of Somewhere Hot
Everybody's on the Run
Tiki Bar is Open (2003 style)
Cousin in Miami
Nothin' But a Breeze

[Glorfindel7]

I would hope for "Nobody from Nowhere" myself... it's pretty upbeat and keeps the beat moving from Hot Hot Hot...
I think Big Top is just a little too mellow for an Opening song... would have to be something in the middle of the first set...

[HurricaneSeason]

I'm starting to think that he'll open the Under The Big Top Tour with Big Top.

It seems more better, ha ha, to me if he opened with the album's opening track.

But that's just me. It would be a fantastic irony if he didn't play Big Top because then it would be just like the A Salty Piece Of Land tour.

But there's no way he's going to pass up a chance to sing/shout about fins out in the crowd.
