Setlist and YT videos will be posted after the show. If someone went, please post your thoughts in this topic.

[Blackbird]

Can't wait for the setlist! We'll only go to Berlin this time (went to Hamburg, Berlin and Leipzig during the first leg of the WTS tour), I really, REALLY hope we won't miss anything spectacular tonight. Would be devastated if they played Fable tonight, but not in Berlin Wish you lots of fun!

Do you/the mods mind if I send in a prediction for the setlist for each show?

[maximzub]

The setlist is up!

Silver Tongue (electric live debut)
Addicted To Pain
The Other Side (first time live since November 28, 2017)
This Is War (live debut)
Ghost Of Days Gone By
Wouldn't You Rather
Isolation
Waters Rising
Sin After Sin (live debut)
Metalingus
Pawns & Kings (live debut)
Watch Over You
In Loving Memory
Blackbird
Rise Today
Cry Of Achilles

Encore:
Slip To The Void (first time live since December 9, 2017)
Open Your Eyes

I am truly in awe. This is the first time since I started following them that they're playing a full electric show, and I can't contain my excitement.

[Blackbird]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Very no-nonsense setlist. Not a single bad song on it, that's great, but also no surprises except maybe Slip to the Void. Would love to see two songs more, but didn't really expect it. Kind of shocked that they really didn't play Come to Life, but in all honesty, I've seen it so often live that I don't really care about it missing.

Care to share how well the individual songs of P&K were received by the crowd?

I wasn't there. I was just sharing the setlist. Still, just reading the setlist and knowing they're back to playing live is reason enough for me to be ecstatic!

[Blackbird]

Oh lol, nvm then where will you be going?

A previous version of the setlist on setlist.fm showed that they played Down To My Last and I was so excited about it, guess it was fake :')

Another recent troll edit said that they played I Know It Hurts, Find The Real, and Traveling Riverside Blues.

Clip of This Is War. Sounds great. Strangely, my only negative comment isn't even about the music. It's that I'm not a fan of Myles's new hairstyle.

[Blackbird]

Interesting. I like the song itself, but am very underwhelmed by that live recording.

I'd say it's a decent setlist. I wonder at which point Fable comes in.

Where both Watch Over You and In Loving Memory the electric versions? Would love them to replace Waters Rising with Stay.

[Timotheus]

Only one song from Walk The Sky and one song from TLH.

ODR: 3
Blackbird: 3
ABIII: 3
Fortress: 3
TLH: 1
WTS: 1
P&K: 4

Mostly glad to see Pawns & Kings in there. Can't wait to hear a recording of that!

[Thierry]

Craving for some videos of the new songs. Unfortunately, there's not much on YouTube yet.

[Thierry]

Here we go:

Pretty much meh! Doesn't do much for me. Missing backing vocals.

The opening bit sounds like Native Son lol

[Blackbird]

Is it me or does Myles look kinda uncomfortable playing that song, maybe because he's not all that familiar with it yet? He seems VERY concentrated on singing and playing and doesn't really have any crowd interactions at all (including just... LOOKING at the crowd).

Yeah, it also looks very stale. Maybe they didn't rehearse it properly enough. The energy is also lacking.

It absolutely is! I mean, this is their FIRST song of their FIRST show in 1 1/2 years (not counting the pre-listening party), but it feels like the last show of a very tiring tour. Hoping that Myles got more into it a few songs in.
