Best Live Performances of Gigaton Songs

BrainofBGA

Yeah, little Gigaton at all really. What’s been played this tour? Quick Escape (1), DotC (1), Whoever Said (1), River Cross (1), Seven (1). Think they may have all been US Leg 1. Think they tried to fit a song in each set, but that got dropped for the Euro leg. Can’t ply them all I guess. By the time you do the DM songs, the hits and regulars, a couple of rarities, a few covers, that’s the set done. They didn’t tour Aus/NZ for Gigaton so maybe a song or two might get played here!

Enjoy Dark Matter in the live show while you can because it will probably get the same treatment in a couple of years.

Honestly, I relished hearing the dark matter stuff live and would have liked to hear them all. The seven I did hear all sounded good/great.  React/Respond is a favorite on the album but kind of flat live. Upper Hand and Setting Sun fit in with the classics.

I'm not saying what I said because I think the songs should disappear from the set. I'm just saying this is the pattern. I'd be happy for all of the 21st-century albums to be featured heavily in the sets going forward.

You say "honestly" like it's a rogue opinion. I think most of us feel that way. I got to see all 11 songs at my ten shows, and they were far and away the highlights of the experience.

After Lightning Bolt, I didn't have a lot of time to listen to the band. But I'm getting way back into the music after listening to Dark Matter. I've also rediscovered Gigaton, liking it a lot more now that I've listened to it again.
Could anyone tell me which live performances of the Gigaton songs are the best? I'm looking to buy some bootlegs from 2021 to 2023, and hoping to get some recommendations.
Thanks in advance!
