yes! I was talking to Jason from Philly at Elysian, and we were talking about it, he pulled out the Stat Tracker app and said it was only played a few times up until this tour...13 times this year (or something...someone give me the numbers please)

It really makes the song 'not so special' now. :(

I don't know. I think this song is special no matter how many times they play it. Plus it's a great song no matter how many times I hear it.

I don't want to speak for you. If you would have said "not so unique now", I might agree with that a little.

Last-12-Exit

Bee girl and closing with all along the watch tower.

Maybe another oddity would be all of the "double openers" used to start a lot of the shows.

Little Wing too!

AATW at least happened in Jersey 2010

True!

Yeah what was up with footsteps? I went into this fall praying to hear it once and got it twice!

I still cried when I heard it in Seattle, I just feel that, in the previous 10 years, they had only played it what 3-4 times? and now they played it a bunch of times...now it isn't a 'rarely played song'. I like getting those little gems tossed in randomly at shows. It kinda bonds you with other people who were at the same show.

OTOTO from Hartford 2010 became OCOCO (one city one city only) when they played it at Hartford 13 and then all "Os" were dropped in Spokane (but for a very good reason of course).

Weston1283

Also, the disappearance of "The Fixer"

Let me sleep was a really cool treat

By the end of the tour I think double, sometimes triple, openers were the new norm. I liked the move, especially being at the 2 LA shows where we had no opening act. Made for a nice way to ease into the sets. Pendulum-Release-Long Road night 1 was especially cool... And figure that with all the 3 hour sets, what's the rush for getting to up-tempo?

I would add Low Light to the list of not-so-unique-anymore songs. I will never get tired hearing it live, but in past years it was a true rarity. Not so much now, but with 2-3 openers per set, plus encores, I can see why it was bumped up in the rotation.

Maybe 4 hour sets and 4-5 openers next tour???

It was awesome.
Sorry you all missed it.
Actually was a real treat.

There was also quite a shortage of Just Breathe if I'm not mistaken. Didn't bother me that much :P

FoxyRedLa

Mr. Plow tag/reference in Calgary

Father Hubbard

Free world after Ledbetter in San Diego

goldrush

5x Eruption (6 if you count Wrigley). Surely this is getting overplayed now?

Who I Am

How about "double openers" not even opening the show.

Would be my first two to mention.

After Hours was fine, but not a song I'd like to hear often. That's just the "problem" of going to multiple shows though.

I enjoy The Fixer live. THe crowds always enjoy it. Surprised they only played it once this tour.

It at least is a fast, short song. Songs like Just Breathe or Future Days you hear the first note and you know you are in for several minutes boredom.

Always a good thing.

thefixer9

Let Me Sleep....

Tremorman

I think the appearance of Fatal and Otherside in consecutive nights (Worcester) was cool.

Also the downplaying of Animal and Dissident which I dont think were played nearly as often as recent tours.

FrankieG

The biggest one you missed: OCEANS IN NYC ?! :shock:

Breath -> SOLAT back to back ?

Average # songs per show: 32.96
# of unique songs played: 150

:ugeek:

Suziemay

Forget about the double opener. How bout the triple opener? Pendulum --> Release --> Long Road at LA1. I almost died.

Someone help me out with this, but at the time I remember Charlottesville was one of only two shows that had at least one song from every album. Not sure if it happened on the second leg.
