The return of....Supertramp

[That 70s Guy]

from classicrockmagazine.com

Roger Hodgson has taken his ongoing annoyance at Supertramp’s reunion without him a stage further – by publishing a list of songs he wrote and doesn’t expect the band to play.

As we recently reported, Supertramp co-founder Hodgson issued a statement insisting that the band shouldn’t perform any of his songs on their upcoming 40th anniversary reunion tour.

Now he’s emphasised the point with this list:

The Logical Song
Give A Little Bit
Dreamer
It’s Raining Again
Breakfast in America
Take The Long Way Home
Sister Moonshine
Land **
If Everyone Was Listening
Hide In Your Shell
Easy Does It
Lady
The Meaning
Two Of Us
A Soapbox Opera
Even In The Quietest Moments
Babaji
Fool’s Overture
Child Of Vision
Lord Is It Mine
Crazy
Know Who You Are
Don’t Leave Me Now

Of course, that still leaves a whole load of classics written by Rick Davies that the band will be performing. Such as, er…

Supertramp will play the O2 in London on October 6. Hodgson, meantime, has his own tour lined up.

Too bad things have to come to such a split....it would have been nice to see a full Supertramp reunion

It can't be money, they are all fine financially so it must just be old personality issues between Roger and Rick but seeing Davies made the gesture to tour again for the fans, and Hodgson has taken his "Diva" stance I would play his songs regardless just to irritate him.
