I do think a new song should open the tour for the most part ideally, to give a new song that cache to be remembered as a tour opener even if its not a single like Last Man Standing or Bounce.

Army Of One is my initial thought, based purely on the drum opening which can be extended and be very much like the LYHOM intro of old. As already said, people are crazy when they come on anyway, so something new and upbeat should fit the bill. If it must be an old track then something different given a new lease of live.

I'd go for Prayer, Bounce or a song off the new album... Blood On Blood needs to be saved for the encore

No more Lost Highway songs. Anywhere in the set list.

If it had to be off the new album my choice would be Army Of One. If we're going into the back catalogue i'm not too interested in debating it. Ideally there wouldn't be one sole opener and they'd change it on a nightly basis or at the very least rotate through 4 or 5. I always thought Last Man Standing was a fantastic opener.

Aloha !

I'm hoping they'll open with Army Of One. Get the worst song out of the way, realize it doesn't work as an opener, give it a few more tries in another slot in the set and then drop it altogether, just in time for the European tour.

My vote goes to either I Believe or Tokyo Road, both things that'll most likely never happen.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I still really really can't see them opening with an album track from WAN before it's even released ...
