Default Possible concert opener from The Circle?

I was thinking about this for a quite time. I really care about the live shows and I'm curious which song they will use to open the shows.

My first bet is Brokenpromiseland.
It has great intro build up and great verse. On the other hand the choruses are pretty lame.

My second choice is Happy Now?
It has some intro bulid up but not as great as Brokenpromiseland. It doesn't have that strong verses but the chorus is great.

What do you think?

We Weren't Born To Follow.

Plus it'll probably sound better going from Follow into Bad Name/Born To Be My Baby than any other song of the album would do.

I'd like them NOT to open with a song from The Circle. But if they do, I'd rather it wasn't Born To Follow. I think that would work better just somewhere in the middle of the set. When We Were Beautiful would be cool, but I'd rather hear that after the 1st encore. If I had to pick any one, I'd probably agree and say Brokenpromiseland....or Working Man....because they could start and people would think it was Prayer but then it wouldn't be.

I like every single song from this album but I don't see any of them appropriate to open the show.

Example is Last man standing, great song for but as an opener it was perfect until Jon started to sing it without energy.

I Think when we were beutiful would work brilliantly can just imagine that song finishing and jon going "well lets see, it was a long time ago but"(points to dave to kick off runaway), that would be a damn good opener in my opinion, plus cldnt be any other classic really, that or happy now, but please not we were'nt born to follow its not a bad song but would be a bad opener.

It'll be interesting to see what happens setlist wise etc, will Jon continue the progression made during the LH tour regarding varying things.

Also, it looks like there will be a ramp/walkway around the stage and the closest seats, be nice if it is used more than the catwalk during the HAND tour!

I think it will end up being WWBTF.

However, I do think that Brokenpromisedland has the words "great concert opener" written all over it.

Just to clarify my earlier post - I don't want it to be Follow, but I think it will be.

I agree. It will most likely be born to follow.... And play it first, and get it over with.

WWBTF - most likely. It is not what I would choose but Jon is the CEO.
