This x a million please. Sorry not sorry, there's no excuse for not rotating some of those in... they're just as well-known as many of the others they're playing, so they'd still cater to the first-timers. Same with 21 Guns.

Finally :)

I would LOVE to hear 21CB again.

You mean the title track or the Album?

I'm going to me first GD concert in July, I'd love to hear some 21CB songs - American Eulogy, the title track and 21 Guns would be great!

i've looked at the set lists in setlist.fm and it seems that they open with Know Your Enemy but don't play any other 21CB songs 

I'm also mystified as to why they don't play WMUWSE

I'd also love to hear songs from 21CB, other than KYE...

regarding, WMUWSE, I think I read somewhere that Billie says it's hard for him to sing that song, since he gets really emotional, with the song being written about his dad. Poor him :(. Even though I'd love to hear it live, I'm ok with not hearing it, if it's so hard on Billie.

I think seeing 21CB live would totally blow me away, since the live recordings I've seen on YT are epic! I get why they don't wanna play it this tour though: it's long and they already got two long songs JOS and FN, also it was played throughout the 21CB tour. I guess they just want to use the time for new songs. 

I've never seen WMUWSE live, but I don't miss it either. Yes, I love the song, but the fact that Billie is always visibly struggling with his emotions during the performance would be too much for me, I think. It's also a song I'd never ever request they add to the setlist due to the same reason.

I can understand leaving out WMUWSE, but leaving out 21 Guns is strange. It's their last top 40 hit and a great song

If I could choose one 21CB song to include, it would be American Eulogy, Mass Hysteria is amazing

Also Welcome to Paradise would be great, it's really relatable for me because I'm leaving home for University in September. Setlist.fm says it's been played 12/59 concerts this tour, fingers crossed they play it in Sheffield!

I would love to hear 21st century breakdown again! It was the first song I seem them perform live with my own eyes ha! That as an opener was incredible! I actually like Know Your Enemy as an opener because everyone knows it and gets everyone involved straight away! However I loved 21CB as an opener haha

Yes! One of the best live songs I've ever seen, I wish they'd bring it back.

So, at the start of 2010:

- The 21CB tour was in full swing

- Labour was in power in Britain

- We were in the EU

- Democrats held both houses of Congress and the White House

- Fulham were in the Premier League and Europa League

Now:

- Only 1 21CB song is played on the RevRad tour

- Conservatives are in government in Britain with a double - digit lead in the polls

- Brexit is happeming

- Republicans hold both houses of Congress

- Fulham are in the Championship 

Where did it all go wrong?!!

I think maybe because it's very similar to Boulevard of Broken Dreams. And they'll always favour American Idiot songs so out of the two that was the rock power ballad they kept.

Any idea why they got completely got rid of a full song from the setlist? They went from 27 to 28 songs, which don't get me wrong is still a hell of a lot for one band to play, but I don't understand why they would cut Scattered and not replace it with anything else.

Christie Road was also cut. So we lost 2 songs on this leg of the tour

Only about half of Christie Road was performed , and it was right before Scattered. 

I don't know... I feel it wasn't all that well received as they hoped. The audience doesn't really put up lights for Christie Road as they do for BoBD or Ordinary World, and I feel as if not many people went wild for Scattered.

I just don't get why they wouldn't replace it with anything. Scattered was amazing when I saw it in October and last month. I thought they would at least want to replace it with another song or something. Would be great to hear a 21st Century Breakdown song at that part of the show!

Yup, it's a goddamn shame tbh. Was the best track in the set for the 20th of Nimrod and CR for the 25th of Kerplunk! but I guess that doesn't matter. It's a shame how many people would stand still for Scattered, all the actual old schoolers get the shaft on it now unfortunately. Should be an open slot there for a random classic each night now like they did with Nuclear Family in Montreal but...they are keeping it easier.

In a set of 28-30 songs, I think it's perfectly normal to have a couple of songs that people in general are less familiar with and react a bit less to when you have an audience of like 10,000 people.

So I hope it's not the lack of response that makes them cut those songs.

Maybe gems like Scattered and Christie Road are more suitable for club shows.

Billie was also sick recently, so I wonder if that could be the reason why they'd cut a song they feel people in general won't miss too much.

I think Static Age should replace Scattered - they sound relatively similar and Static Age is one of the best 21CB songs IMO

Also, they already play Hitchin a Ride, KFAD and Good Riddabce from Nimrod, whereas they only play KYE from 21CB

They soundchecked Too Dumb To Die in Las Vegas. Maybe it will make it's way in to the setlist!

Based on history we're going to see a relatively fresh set list on the second half of the US tour. Not radically different, but similar to the change between the 1st and 2nd halves of the 21CB tour (check out the contrast in setlists- it was substantial). And I love your post- a little Too Dumb To Die or Bouncing Off the Walls would be awesome.

Well lets home they use the OZ tour as practice for the new setlist - wishful thinking

Ahh that makes me so happy! I'd love to hear that one the most from the unplayed revrad songs.
