Many articles on line about EPs/LPs, advantages, preferences, etc. Her's a good quote from one.
EPs have great promotional advantages. When a new album is going to be introduced by a band, they may pre-release an EP to get the hit singles rolling. After that, they will introduce the LP to get the whole album experience. Usually a single consumer buys both versions–a double win for sales and profits.

the more I think about the dropping of 'It's late" and 'Spread your wings', the less it makes sense...in interviews it seemed like a bit of a burden for them to "have to" play the hits, it's an obligation, the fans expect it...but they drop the two NEW songs that are also from the album that is the theme for this tour because they "didn't feel like it'... ...if they drop songs to keep it fresh it just puzzles me, that it's the two new ones^^ I just wonder if it was a one time thing or if this is a permanent change to the setlist... Maybe they couldn't get the sound right for the two songs for some reason, maybe Adam wanted to go easy on his voice, maybe Brian felt more like playing the known... ...I never knew staning someone could be so irritating lol talon you said that you liked 'For your entertainment' from all three of Adams albums and the other two weren't your coup of tea, but you bought them to support Adam. I was just wondering if you like "Lucy"? It's one of my favorites, it just kicks ass to me, love the full on rock edge. I 100% agree! Why drop the new songs if they want to keep things fresh? It puzzles me too. As far as getting the sound right, these 2 songs sounded incredible the 4 shows i was at, especially "It's Late." I understand them playing around with the placement of SYW. But don't get dropping "It's Late" at all. the only thing I can add is Brian's comment after the Seattle show. He said that the Seattle performance of "It's Late" was the best one to that point. Maybe he just wasn't happy with it. I don't get it though.

I have wondered if TF was released to gauge the size of Adam's fan base .WBR would then know how much they would be prepared to invest in era 4.
Singles...EPS. Or Albums as already mentioned Adam's close friends have said EP,we'll just have to wait and see,but we're getting new music! I must say if they drop "Its Late and SYW that would be a real shame,"IT's Late" was getting pretty perfect and it was an Adam favourite
but as Talon has said Brian can get a bit stuck in his ways ,but I hope they come back.

Imagine if Adam had dropped TOH and Ghost Town from his TOH Tour? We'd all be "WTF?!" So, I completely understand the fans being sad and even upset about 2 songs from News of the World being dropped (especially the Queenies.) But, what if Adam just meant they were dropped that night. I mean, it was after all, just a twitter party. no space for long answers.

So glad I got to hear them live and grateful we have wonderful vids of them. Will be interesting to see if one or both might return tonite.....sure hope so. Q3....girldrummer....littledarkangel ....and anyone else attending tonite's show in Chicago.......ENJOY !

That tweet instantly translated in my head into Adam's voice, Toronto II 2014. Love Kills got dropped for Dragon Attack "...because we felt like it" It's at 17 seconds into this video. A great excuse to post this vid again. So many great and crazy memories of my first time with QAL, and of Dragon Attack too, although it took me a minute to get over the fact that I wouldn't get to hear Love Kills live. This song proved to be quite epic as well. ;-) Numerous gifs were made. Also: I am in this video (well, the back of my head ) as well as a certain water bottle that I later managed to get my hands on.

At least for me, it was more the tone of the response that was an unpleasant surprise as it made the decision sound rather final. Hopefully the songs or something else new comes back in their place.
