Fair point, it wouldn't happen anyway but Apocalypse Please opening the set might work 10 years of Abso and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter. Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Showbiz opening with the drums and all would surely send shivers down a few spines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I think Survival could work as an opener but it works a hell of a lot better as a closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frakkles Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Showbiz would work as an opener in a smaller indoor academy-type venue. I don't think the low drum beat would be anywhere near as effective at an arena/park/stadium-type venue but it would certainly work well with a small venue. Survival is a horrible opener though. As an opener, it would just sort of chug along. It's not really a proper rock song like Dead Star, MK Ultra or Map so you can't really rock out to it and it's not really a build song like Take A Bow or Overture so it doesn't set-up the next song. It works so much better as a main set/encore/show closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DifferentPerson Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Not opening with a song from The 2nd Law on a tour called "The 2nd Law World Tour" just feels wrong. They opened with Plug In Baby at a few festivals on the Resistance tour I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanp16 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Well considering this is technically the Unsustainable Tour and they're not opening with Unsustainable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frakkles Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 1. It was twice and it was at the tail end of the tour and it was at festivals. 2. Did they open with the entire 2nd Law album on "The 2nd Law Tour"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandaF Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Easy. Unsustainable to open. Survival to close. Perfect. Edit: I didn't even read anyone else's suggestions after someone said NOT Survival (3 times) as a closer *pfttt* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

museymouse Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Blackout (Matt with guitar) Exogenesis 3 If they did like a slow closer type thing like Green Day do, then I think Exo part 3 could be great in that position.. but I guess it depends where it's played ... would be like a nice back to earth moment after something like stockholm / knights / survival / whatever. But I do love them ending with massive numbers like survival / knights / stockholm though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannahG123 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Open with unsustainable Close with survival Edit: actually showbiz would be a good opener or closer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AguanteRiver Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Surprised no one brought up Bliss as closer, like it was way back in the dark ages...or rather, the mushroom ages. I've only seen it live in 2013, both times mid-set, but I wouldn't mind it closing either the main set or encore. Anything would be a better closer than Starlight though...Stockholm, Survival and TaB would be my personal faves. And Dead Star opening would be epic and is never going to happen.

Wearealltoblame Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Best opener ever: Uprising 2nd best: Knights of Cydonia Best Main Set Closer: Dead Star 2nd best: Plug in Baby Best Closer: Stockholm Syndrome 2nd best: Take A Bow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Uprising was fantastic as an opener at the O2 gig in 2009 but I love the intro on this stadium tour, with the explosion leading into Supremacy. Best main set closer I've seen was Unnatural Selection, although Megalomania weirdly worked in this slot. Knights of Cydonia is a great closer but Survival, which I've only seen close once in my 3 T2L gigs, is close. It would've been great if the Emirates gig had ended there, but they carried on to do more anyway. I don't have much to go on given I've only seen KoC, Survival and Starlight as closers.
