I hope they keep most of them! There's a few I don't care much but anything is better than hearing the same post HAND songs over and over again. Last time they believed in an album was HAND. I think they played the whole album (save for a song or two?) and lots of album cuts where semi-regulars or even regulars. I know people like the 2008-2011 tours for the rarities, but to me up until the HAND tour they had a better core setlist. Born to Follow, LH, WGIGO and BWC can't be classics over most post2000 songs, I refuse to accept it.

This should be the perfect time to start anew. They have strong songs live, they seem to enjoy playing them, Jon's voice is holding up pretty well so the more new songs they use, the better, everybody and their mother has already heard at least 4 songs from the album and chances are most fans have had the chance to watch most of them live. They really don't have lots of excuses this time to ditch the new songs because they are not working. They are clearly working live, when was the last time that happened?

The only problem I see is some of them might sound too similar, but at least they have many options this time for a nice rotation. Well, they only one they can't touch is Devil's. If they don't make it a staple live I will... I don't know what I'll do but it won't be nice
