Wish they'd play more Rev Rad on tour. That's a slept on album, I reckon, even by them. 😅

They just played Still Breathing in Cape Town!

I'm ready to cry when the full setlist comes out. I could have been at that show right now for fuck's sake 😅

I'd not seen a set list for that show, but yay! Still Breathing is a beautiful song ❤️

But Rock and Roll All Nite is back, they must like to play it but they have so many better songs of their own I’d rather hear!

they need to staph fucking around with Rock and roll and pull Strangeland out after 1872 shows

(in all seriousness though, it was worth it for Still Breathing)

This is what I was thinking too. They have such an extensive catalog of their own songs, that even if they just stick to singles and greatest hits they'd still have enough for a full 2h playlist. So I don't know why they "waste time" in their shows with covers. As a fan, I'd rather they switch it for one of their own songs. But I guess it's precisely that, that they have fun playing it.

Any chance they played it to get the crowd going? Like sometimes festival crowds aren't quite as receptive?

still wondering what the fuck the deal with 86 was
now that the modified setlist is out it makes me wonder if whoemever put 86 on setlist fm got it confused with a tease (which HAS happened in the past on setlist fm) or if 86 maybe got soundchecked????? (which would also make sense considering how they sometimes check songs that are "dead" on the regular setlist such as android being soundchecked in 2010 or self titled being soundchecked with tre in 2009)


(they could also have been trolling but who knows!)

I haven't seen any mention of it on Instagram, so I think someone was either trolling or confused 🤷‍♀️ 

I was just on a video call with to my partner when he joined one of his colleagues who went to the show last night, and of course I asked him about the show. The guy is a pretty casual listener (he felt the need to inform me they closed with Time of Your Life how cute is that?), but he was converted. "They played song after song! and they had so much energy! It was just amazing!" He sounded still really hyped and really happy about the show. I felt proud ☺️

NGL i honestly think at this point that they were trolling OR they (somehow) got Letterbomb's chorus confused with 86's chorus
if 86 was actually played then im fairly certain that a shit ton of videos would have popped up related to it like with Still Breathing 
ah well, theres always the next 2 shows for it to possibly appear
