July 22, 201115 yr It seems that it will be the same setlist AGAIN. Kind of tired. Wish they would surprise us. aw, come on, you should know by now that this is slightly unrealistic ;)
July 22, 201115 yr it may not be the same setlist cause they were arranging one as posted on twitter, surely its a bit different then?
July 22, 201115 yr Back To The Future Intro 1. MX 2. Hurts Like Heaven 3. Yellow 4. In My Place 5. Major Minus 6. Lost!
July 22, 201115 yr Don't get me wrong, I'm not hatin' on the fact that the set list is the same for each of every one of these festival shows (more or less). What I am genuinely puzzled about, is what are the band getting out of playing 25 odd festival shows (all more or less broadcast in full on television - and therefore worldwide on the net) when the "new" songs may not even make it on the album. Surely they decided long ago based on the reaction from the early shows that Major Minus, Charlie Brown, MX/Hurts Like Heaven, Princess of China, etc. will or will not be on the record. With so much scrutiny (live tv, webfeeds, etc.) it's not as though they are getting to try different things each night. Is it a welcome break out of the studio? Is it for the money? Is it to try finish songs / write material on the road in soundchecks / in hotel rooms? Is it to retire a good portion of their set (which needs freshening up) - so the last time we'll hear Yellow, Clocks, Politik, In My Place, etc. for a while? Is it all of the above?
July 22, 201115 yr it may not be the same setlist cause they were arranging one as posted on twitter, surely its a bit different then? maybe they had to arrange stuff for a smaller venue?

Is it all of the above? testing the waters perhaps?? Album still hasn't be FINAL finalized yet I don't think.... so, you never know.. :confused:
July 22, 201115 yr maybe they had to arrange stuff for a smaller venue? perhaps, but they wouldnt of had to do another setlist if they were going to use the same one. Anyway, guess we'll just have to see :D
July 22, 201115 yr What do you mean? Screaming bit of high-end feedback during yellow,lol. Bands at their level don't have to put up with quite as much of that...lucky them. :) It'sthe sound tech in me.I hear EVERYTHING,lol.

None of the above!
July 22, 201115 yr No matter what, iam always happy to see them playing a concert,same setlist or not !:)
July 22, 201115 yr Oracle and Phil Harvey both confirmed it, just wait, it'll probably be somewhere in the middle where the setlist has been tampered with before.
