Three Days, The Root of All Evil, Through Her Eyes, Caught in a Web

Where do I have to sign to hear all four of them at the next DT show?

3 is good until Space Dye and that's what shifted my decision to one where all of the songs are super good

Revenge319

I went with 3.
1, 4 and 5 all have at least one song that I'm not all that into (Lie, Through Her Eyes, One Last Time/Lifting Shadows). 2 is more consistent but 3 has higher highs.

LOL Space Dye Vest is my favorite song in that batch

I'll sit this one out.  A lot of these songs are mid at best for my tastes.

Curse you, Mr. Shmev!

A Life Left Behind is the only TA song I regard with any favor, but it's grouped two "meh" songs and the most overplayed and overrated song in the catalog.

I don't know any of the other TA songs well enough to factor them in.

The three non-TA songs in group 3 are really good, so I guess I'll take that over group 1, which has two excellent songs and Lie.

Easiest one so far for me - group 3. It has the two standout tracks of the whole selection in A New Beginning and Sacrificed Sons, plus the two other tracks are pretty great as well (and quite different :lol ).

Group 4 is decent I suppose, but not a patch on 3.
Whoaaaahh, ohhh, ohhhhh. Whoaaaahh, ohhhhh, ohhhhhh. Waaah, ahhh, haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaowwwwww

Quote from: Evermind on March 30, 2025, 10:35:41 AMI'm gonna send 1) stuff that's too heavy 2) stuff that's too proggy 3) singers that sound like Freddie Mercury. Hope that sounds good.

I actually hate Our New World but love the other songs in that group enough to elevate it far above the others!

I don't like Our New World either. I never understood it's draw. And I really dig TA. I even saw it live with Lzzy Hale, and I liked even less.

I chose Number 3.

SeRoX

Sacrificed Sons and Space Dye-vest are enough. I'll go with 3.

CraftyCaleb2483

Unsurprisingly there are no votes for number 2  :lol

As much as I love TSCO DT's setlist decision make me like it less over the years. I fed up seeing it almost every tour.

bosk1

I went with #1:  Our New World, Panic Attack, Overture 1928, Lie

Reading the list, each song made me say, "Yeah, strong choice."  All the other groups had at least one song, if not more, that did not get that reaction from me.  So pretty easy for me.

I don't know "A Life Left Behind" or what album it's from but Never Enough, The Spirit Carries On and Innocence Faded are some of my favorite DT tracks, this one wins by a landslide for me.

The Astonishing

It used to be one of my least favorite tracks from the album, but it has grown on me.

I just hope I'm still around to check out the final results.....

Can't stand Sacrificed Sons but Space-Dye Vest was enough to make that grouping my pick.

Quote from: hefdaddy42 on February 19, 2025, 12:03:20 PMWhy is that unsurprising?
Well, I haven't heard much positivity about either Never Enough or Innocence faded from the forum, and most people, though they like it, consider The Spirit Carries On overplayed

Never Enough is fine, and Innocence Faded is awesome.  So is The Spirit Carries On, but it is overplayed live.  Which doesn't really change how much people actually like the song.

I actually considered this one, but ultimately went with Three Days, The Root of All Evil, Through Her Eyes, Caught in a Web. Four great songs.
