They should bring back some WDADU songs, like The Killing Hand or Only a Matter of Time.
Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

*Yes, Jesus Christ himself. Nothing less will do.

They still haven't done anything for the Awake anniversary yet, so I'm looking forward to seeing if anything happens.  Would love to see 6:00, Lifting Shadows, or Silent Man.

And of course, SDV although there's a 99.9% chance that will never happen.

Also, why does everyone doubt the 12-step suite?  They haven't done a DVD for this tour yet, so I think it's highly probable.

Or the Killing Hand.

Stream of Consciousness and The Killing Hand are both pretty damn high on my list of songs they need to bring back into rotation.

My girlfriend would be very upset.

Reason being is that When Dream and Day Unite is in general pretty underrepresented, and The Killing Hand is not only my favorite on the album, but it's been an awesome live tune on every tour they've done it. The other cool thing about it is that James always seems to nail that song. I oft criticize him for his performance of WDADU material, but he always does that song so well.

And I just think SoC is their best instrumental, so it should get some love. Not to mention it's the only song on ToT not to be played since that tour.

Yup, just switch Sacrificed Sons with One last time, and there you have it.

That's pretty identical to the setlist I saw in Stockholm, just replace POW with Forsaken and One Last Time.

They're just more rockin' live and more accessible for most audiences. For good as Erotomania and Voices are, The Mirror and Lie have much more "anthemic" rock song vibe going on.

I actually like the latter better, but since I've already heard it live, Mirror/Lie would be refreshing.  :)

I never said I liked them more, but I'd seen them live less often (only once previously) and they are REALLY fun live, more so that Erotomania/Voices. That's why I was overjoyed that we got them at Wembley.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.

Wow! PM Under! I just asked why they didnt play it before I changed my previous post, that's awesome lol!  :lol

Really good set list, cool and nice to see PMU as the last song before the intermission, and the first time this tour.

Awesome performance!  :metal I only noticed a single mistake or two. I loved how the audience singed along in the end, it enriches the song. Nice hat Jordan has too, the video reminded me why I like the keyboard solo in this song.

I don't even know what does James sing at the end of PMU...

Kevin Moore had written PMU effected by "Hamlet". Here is the section end of the song;

Act-I/Scene-II

O, that this too too solid flesh would melt,
Thaw and resolve itself into a dew!
Or that the everlasting had not fix'd.
His canon 'gainst self-slaughter! O God! God!
How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable,
Seem to me all the uses of this world!
