I've been thinking about where the songs of Dark Matter might end up in the upcoming setlists. Here are some places I think the songs would fit well.
1. Scared of Fear: Opens the show. If they want to kick off with a rocker, this one would be perfect. Plus, it would build some anticipation of, "Are they playing the whole album?"
2. React, Respond: Around halfway through the first set. Would work well paired with a classic crowd pleaser like Daughter or Betterman
3. Wreckage: Penultimate song of first encore. I think it would flow nicely into a rocking end to that part of the set.
4. Dark Matter: Early in the first set, 3rd song or so. Obviously going to play this one a lot and I think they get to it quick.
5. Won't tell: This fits into the React, Respond slot when they don't play that one...also around halfway through the first set.
6. Upper Hand: Lights on, end of show. Call my crazy, but that guitar outro and "Carry me Home" would be a cool nightcap.
7: Waiting for Stevie: I could see this as the 2nd song of the show after a Release/Pendulum opener.
8: Running: 2nd song of the first encore after a toned down start.
9. Something Special: I like this song and need to convince my daughters to use it in their weddings (the oldest is 11, so I have some time, I hope). However, I could see it becoming a piss/beer break song slotted in 4th from the end of the first set. Either that, or open the encore with this to the folks in the back. Better than Last Kiss!
10. Got to Give: Also near the end of the first set, a solid one to mix into the rotation.
11. Setting Sun: Ed and Glen together as a preset....don't be late.
Thoughts? Wherever these songs end up, I'm pumped to hear them live. See you in Philly.
