Release as a Set Closer?
Considering I made a thread on Inside Job being an opener, I thought I would make a related thread to mirror it.
Just like being a legendary studio album closer, Release is a FANTASTIC and timeless concert opener. It seems that we all love it in that spot and the band has really given that song a home as #1 on setlists, but wouldn't it be cool if they completely blew our minds and pulled it out to end a main set, or maybe to even end a concert? This was discussed on an episode of Single Podcast Theory a while back, but I'd love to see a more widespread discussion. What do you guys think?
