I would like the setlist to be like this:

 

 

Opening

Viva La Vida (cant imagine how crazy people go with Viva opening the concert)

Lovers In Japan

Talk

Fix You

Violet Hill (with initial lines of A Rush Of Blood... in the end)

Trouble

The Hardest Part

Speed Of Sound

Strawberry Swing

 

Acoustic set:

Don Quixote

A Message/ Don't Panic/ Till Kingdom Come

Shiver

 

Lost

Yellow

The Scientist

 

Encore:

Clocks

Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

Swallowed In The Sea Into (Acapella)/In My Place

ETIAW for sure!

ETIAW for sure!

Expect this at every show.

 

Okay, lemme lay out a reasonable festival set that would include some nice oldies, but nothing too wildly awesome (like Amsterdam - I would DIE from that):

 

Yellow

In My Place

Speed of Sound (put this back in the damn setlist, guys)

Cemeteries of London

Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall

God Put a Smile Upon Your Face (finally going back to the REAL version)

Lost! (or, preferably, "Lost?")

Trouble

Talk (again, REAL version)

Shiver (acoustic)

Til Kingdom Come/Warning Sign/A Message (acoustic, I consider this a wild card slot)

Strawberry Swing

Clocks

Lovers in Japan

Viva la Vida

Fix You

Don't think we can expect much longer for festivals. Individual headline shows, yes, but not festivals.

 

Was difficult deciding what to drop from Viva, so I looked at the intimate holiday shows for guidance. No Violet Hill or LiT2.

Start with

The Escapist + Life in Technicolor ii will be great I think

Politik, Fix You, Yellow, Viva La Vida will be survived as well

I hope Amsterdam to be back and Speed of Sound

I've already accepted the notion that I'm probably never going to hear "Sparks" live.

 

PROVE ME WRONG, SETLIST GODS.

 

This, this. A thousand times this.

 

I also think they'll start playing Amsterdam again. Maybe also Life Is for Living because Phil really wants them to play it :P

 

For Guy's sake I wish they'd play Crests of Waves at least once :dozey:

Expect this at every show.

I think that looks reasonable! I'd love for them to play Violet Hill again, though. They played the real version of God Put... at the Christmas gigs and it was AMAZING. I really hope they keep it on the setlist.
