A Head Full Of Dreams Tour - Setlist Stats

Featured Replies

As the European leg of the tour is over now as well, I updated my stats. (Note: Festival appearances and promo shows not included.)

:)

 

LEG 1 & 2 – SOUTH AMERICA & EUROPE

30 concerts in 14 countries, 19 cities and 19 venues.

 

They played 45 different songs (6 new additions in Europe of which two were covers), 679 songs overall. The average setlist had 23 songs.

 

From the 679 songs played in total:

- 32% were from A Head Full Of Dreams (-1 pp vs. just Leg 1 SA)

- 15% were from Mylo Xyloto

- 15% were from Ghost Stories

- 12% were from A Rush Of Blood To The Head

- 8% were from Parachutes

- 6% were from X&Y (-1 pp vs. just Leg 1 SA)

- 5% were cover songs

- 5% were from Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends (+1 pp vs. just Leg 1 SA)

- 2% were from The Blueroom EP (+1 pp vs. just Leg 1 SA).

 

Birds and Army of One had their live debuts (both in Buenos Aires).

 

Seven songs have been played after taking a live hiatus for five or more years: See You Soon (last played in 2003), A Rush Of Blood To The Head (2007), A Message (2010), Parachutes (2011), Politik (2011), Shiver (2011), and The Hardest Part (2011).

 

13 different audience requests were chosen for the C-stage. 37% of the requests played overall were from Parachutes, 37% from AROBTTH, 17% from X&Y, and 3% each from The Blueroom EP, Viva La Vida and Mylo Xyloto.

The songs were:

- In My Place (6x)

- Don’t Panic (4x)

- Shiver (4x)

- The Hardest Part (3x)

- Trouble (3x)

- God Put A Smile Upon Your Face (2x)

- Green Eyes (2x)

- A Message (1x)

- A Rush Of Blood To The Head (1x)

- See You Soon (1x)

- Speed Of Sound (1x)

- Strawberry Swing (1x)

- Us Against The World (1x)

 

The average show had an attendance of 56,000 people.

The biggest audience for a single show were 76,000 in London, the smallest crowd 41,000 people in Bogotá. The biggest overall audience in one place were 304,000 at the four shows in London. Attendance in total was 1.69 million. :o

Wondering what the US leg will bring, can't wait to find out

Does it feel like to anyone else that the audience request songs are really limited, or even a little "pre-determined"? With only 13 different songs played in 30 shows, there isn't as much variety as I expected (hoped for). I know the main set list songs are out, and they're limited to acoustic versions, but some songs are getting way more attention than others. I suppose the songs might be selected by popular demand. Maybe that's why the song title is tagged, so they can tally up the requests easily. Or I fear the songs are chosen in advance, and the tags are just used to find a random request video to show at the concert. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but my shows in Chicago are coming up soon, and I have doubts about anything we can control to help our requests get chosen. If there's a thread on this topic somewhere else, please let me know so I can vent there. Sorry to be such a downer in this great set list stats thread. [emoji53]

 

EDIT... someone started a thread on audience request songs for the US tour, so I found my venting place. [emoji18]

This is what I think the band does. Not gonna complain that much, I mean we got AROBTTH, Strawberry Swing and See You Soon (didn't expect this one at all!)

Can this be updated for the US leg? I'm sorry I can't do it, I don't have the time and patience.

 

 

Thanks!

I might update my stats over the weekend. (If I get tickets and won't need to spend all my time crying...) :)

Hi. Thanks for the post!

 

I noticed in the European section, you've got the setlist for the 11th June in Zurich down twice, instead of the setlist for the 12th. I was there on the 11th, so I don't know what the setlist was for the 12th, but I know there were one or two changes.

You are great! Thanks.

Do you work with stats?

It is not fair that VLVODAAHF doesn't have the love it deserves during this tour.
