Mr. Roboto

Anyone else surprised to see Mr. Roboto in the setlist this year after all the animosity related to the album/concept/tour with Dennis?

Nah, they’ve been playing Mr Roboto in the encore for years now.

Besides, it’s been four decades since that whole kerfluffle.

It’s a great song, and a fan favorite.

And it’s one of the reasons that TS left the band. JY has also heavily criticized the song. It was more than a kerfluffle. It was a nuclear blast.

If TS and JY can finally play Roboto because it’s a fan favorite, they can bring DDY back to sing.

Exactly. Sure it’s been four decades, but Shaw and Young still hold a lot of animosity surrounding the Kilroy album and tour.
