So basically, hey Burrito man, give the Beck set a try, there's a 5% chance you might get a Mellow Gold song!
But then again, hasn't he not played live in quite a while? Maybe he's completely retooling his sets.

I didn't do any research, so I may be completely wrong, I just know he had that back injury that kept him from playing live for a while.

He recently did Bridge School as well as a Japanese tour. Generally the first half of the set is acoustic stuff from Modern Guilt, Mutations and Sea Change, followed by 'Where It's At' and some Guero and Information tunes.

I still think Mellow Gold is the best. I haven't bought a Beck album since Odelay was released. I have been listening to the other ones, and Guero is pretty good. Thanks a lot you guys for not telling me that Mellow Gold is the Beck masterpiece. I genuinely love this album front to back, and kind of hate everything else I've heard except for Ramshackle, including the majority of Odelay. I've seen some setlists listed as half acoustic/half electric, I would really like to see the acoustic side meow. Is this a live Beck standard?

Looks like he's been playing 'Beer Can' sporadically, but it also looks like even 'Loser' isn't a sure thing anymore. Several sets have been completely devoid of ANY material off of Mellow Gold. I'll take beer can! I'd buy an 11 dollar beer can if he played beer can.

And this (possibly my favorite Beck song): And this: I just want to thank you again for these videos, Lumpy. Even if he doesn't play that shit, Pay No Mind is the jam.

As soon as I saw Beck was going to be there I decided to buy tickets. You gotta give some love to Stereopathetic Soulmanure. Satan Gave Me A Taco is fire www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-XuMvxi-vc . If only he played that live. Calvin Johnson doing some background work on the track. I've seen Beck 5-6 times and it's always a good time. I wish he'd take a trip back to his Odelay days and break out of the folk funk he's been in for years....if he ever releases anything new.

'Satan Gave Me a Taco' is my favorite Beck song. We were just listening to that a couple hours ago.

Never seen Beck live, but I like him. What's the deal, is he a good live performer or what?

Considering he was #1 on 90% of this boards' top 10 must see lists I'd say so. Myself not included. Although, I will have you all know that I finally made it through (almost) all of Beck's catalog, and I rather enjoyed Sea Change and The Information. Count me in, barring Mogwai conflict. I think it's the Dust Brothers that I don't like after all, not Beck. Thanks for the encouragement to push through, guys.

Most of them are speculation as to what he will play or people's favorite Beck songs/albums. But ok.

I think "religious experience" is the most common description of his live sets. The guy can put on a show.
