    How about Dissident? Still never heard it live and it seems to be dropping off their setlists.

    Around the Bend
    No Way
    Evacuation
    Greivsnce (please prove me wrong!)
    Thin Air
    Cropduster
    Ghost
    Get right
    Green Disease (big mistake)
    All or None
    Marker in  the Sand
    Gone
    Gonna See My Friend
    Johnny Guitar (Did we ever see it???)
    Supersonic
    Sperd of Sound
    Force of Nature
    The End (totally fine to never hear again)
    My Fathers Son
    Swallowed Whole (the best song that REM never wrote)
    Let the Records Play
    Yellow Moon (big mistake .. much better than Lowlight)
    Alright (Alright …)

    What song isn’t on here that is INSANELY close to landing here? (Brain of J .., Jesus, boys … it RIPS!)
    What tune am I absolutely wrong about? (Gone)
    Which one is your wish to return? (Greivsnce)
    which one are you fine with being gone? (Johnny Guitar … although I LOVE the shout out)
    which one returns in their theater run in about ten years? (All or None)
    which ‘regular’ would you dump to make room for one of these? (Elderly … and I will ALWAYS lose to a song along) 

    and, I’ll say EVERY SINGLE SONG off of ‘Dark Matter’ better stick around!















    I want this complete list to be the Sydney II setlist!  =)

    Sydney I will be my son’s first ever show and he’s compiled a playlist on my phone of some of his favourite songs: 

    No Way
    Evacuation
    Cropduster
    Ghost
    Get right
    Green Disease
    Marker in  the Sand
    Gone
    Gonna See My Friend
    Swallowed Whole
    Let the Records Play
    Yellow Moon

    …are all on the OP’s list. I’ve already told him he needs to adjust his expectations a little!  =)
    “Do not postpone happiness”
    (Jeff Tweedy, Sydney 2007)

    “Put yer good money on the sunrise”
    (Tim Rogers)

    Thin Air was played in Seattle this year by request from the mighty @demetrios 🫡

    They still do a great job mixing it up but the last few years they have been pulling from a much smaller pool
    of songs, which sucks. 

    Ever since 2021 with the resumption of shows, the setlist has been much shorter. Obviously, since they've been promoting new albums AND they gotta fill in a few crowd favorites and covers, that doesn't leave much room for the rarities and B-sides.

    It is what it is.

    This is my biggest concern. I too have yet to witness although I feel that I had a few missed opportunities.

    Heck, while we’re at it, apparently most of Vs seems to be fading away as those songs seem becoming only  “special performances” on the tour. Heck, “Go” has only been played once (!) in 2024 and that’s a real shame.

    I think one of the best moments I’ve had at a show was Chicago 2 last year. Tremor - Even Flow - Green Disease - Immortality……and then fucking Marker! I was completely shocked. Then Deep to follow 🔥 2023 was fantastic, hoping for 2025 to be similar
    Out of the four shows I saw on the ‘23 tour (both St. Paul and both Chicago), them busting out Marker was probably my favorite moment. And they absolutely killed it! That whole setlist during Chicago N2 was bonkers.

    Ah yeah! :)

    ..

    I am very shocked they have not played Yellow Moon this year.

    The last time they played it was September 6th 2022 in Hamilton, Ontario.

    The song that is most likely never to be performed live again is "Bu$hleaguer."
    And such a shame

    My Fathers Son. Now's that's a song I would like to see live someday.

    I would like to hear Infallible. I love that song and have yet to see it live. 
  • Grievance is a top 10 PJ song.
    All or None is incredible and Eds voice will be ideal for it at this stage.

    Johnny Guitar (Did we ever see it???)


    Last I've see it live was back in Philly 2009.

    I am afraid 'Getaway' is on the list.  How that song isn't in normal rotation will always be a mystery to me.

    That was pretty rough live the one time I saw it.
