Will they majorly change the setlist for the actual tour?

heelsrule1988 · 01-09-2011, 09:27 PM

I hope so... it would be a bit disappointing to see the setlist stay mostly the same as the festival setlist (with the exceptions of the new songs from the album that they'll add). I hope the only thing that stays the same is MX/Hurts Like Heaven leading off and Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall finishing.

QuestionsOfScience · 01-09-2011, 09:28 PM

Well of course with the new songs introduced on the album they'll add them in, and to make them work with previous releases, they'll have to shift out some...my money's on them taking Everything's Not Lost off definitely...sadly...

MorningGlory · 01-09-2011, 09:50 PM

in the Viva tour they play 25 songs in a full concert. i guess they wouldn't do long concerts like that. 20 songs i think. and when MX is out or probable earlier they play more songs of it. The only old song that i want in the full concerts setlist is Lovers in Japan

admnistramation · 01-09-2011, 10:16 PM

I think they'll have two setlists: one will open with HLH and the other CB. Are any of these shows going to be pro-shot like the festivals?

Kiame · 01-09-2011, 10:49 PM

Yes, of course it will. They'll include a lot more MX material. Paradise will certainly be part of the set, as will a few others. I think they'll ditch Life is for Living. But I love that song, it's one of my favourites so I hope they don't!

Coldplay will never open any festival ever, in any era, with Charlie Brown. Not a chance.

Rock Im Park says otherwise.

Ronnie O Sullivan · 01-09-2011, 11:05 PM

Untill Mylo Xyloto is released, i just want to have Paradise being included in their setlist,probably Princess of China because they played it once...But no more new songs because i wanna hear some really new material when i listen to MX the first time...

The setlist at this gig was quite chaotic.

But really, there isn't a high possibility that CB will be the opener of a concert because CB is going to be a huge single of the new album and big hits are often in the middle-end of a concert.

But no, I get what you mean, things like Viva and CB are likely to go towards the end.
I liked CB as an opener (despite only seeing it done like that via YouTube), but MX/HLH was far better in that position.

Seeing as MX may actually be a full song instead of just an intro, I'm really curious whether they'll keep MX/HLH as the opener.

Corkus · 02-09-2011, 12:30 AM

Festival sets by any band are traditionally shorter than a standard headlining show. But in terms of old songs being played, I wouldn't expect a dramatic switch. Just a bunch of additional MX songs being added.

Twisted mind · 02-09-2011, 12:36 AM

They better play In My Place

Wouldn't mind if In My Place dropped off the face of the earth, actually.

SonnyIanni · 02-09-2011, 02:10 AM

They will probably take off songs like Everything's Not Lost, Life Is For Living, Politik, and Violet Hill. Those songs aren't some of their greater hits. Not songs like Yellow, In My Place, Clocks, Fix You, The Scientist, Lost!, God Put A Smile Upon Your Face, and Viva La Vida. If they keep those 8 hits and the 6 new MX songs (not including Moving To Mars) that they played at the summer festivals, then I'm guessing we are going to get at least 6-7 new MX songs on the tour. My theory sounds as if they will be playing Mylo Xyloto in it's entirety but I'm just speculating!
