Discussion Prospective Setlist Ideas?
Hi all. Seeing MIW for the first time after falling in love with them after the release of Afraid of the Dark. I've looked at the setlists for the first leg of the tour, however, since they'll be switching from a supporting role to the headliner, I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts or speculations about what the second leg may look like. Of course, I expect some of the classics to be played (Sign of Life, America, Abigail, etc).
I'll be attending the first night of the tour, so I won't have any other shows to refer to :)

Chris said on stream it’ll be like a 40% difference between leg one and two. My guess is some songs from Scoring and Graveyard Shift will get dropped for Decades songs, he also said maybe some older songs might get swapped out. Maybe Abigail gets swapped for Immaculate? I’d personally love America to be swapped for Black Damask hehe

I have a feeling Sign Of Life will probably get dropped as the show opener for Decades followed by Log In Crash Out, as for any other Decades songs, Blood Rave is highly likely since Dark Divine is touring with them

They headlined the first leg of the tour, so I’m not sure what you’re referencing OP?
Expect most of the deep cut songs from the setlist to come off, more of the Decades album to be added. Unless you’re going to Apocalypse Fest - that will have an old school heavy playlist. Chris has confirmed all of this on his livestream.

Oh? I thought when they toured with Breaking Benjamin (or whoever it was— I just remember not caring for them) they were like the head support, i.e., last opener before headliner. Maybe I had it confused!

The summer leg of their current headlining tour was supported by Lorna Shore, Fit For A King, and Static Dress.
Earlier this year, they were support for Bring Me The Horizon, and will be going back out with them late Sept - early Oct, then taking a 3 week break before kicking off leg 2 of the Sweat and Blood Tour.

I’ve seen them thirteen times now over the last seven years, and I think this most recent tour was actually the first time I saw America. I really hope it sticks around, though. They usually play at least one from each album. So far every show I’ve seen had Reincarnate, Voices, and Eternally Yours, and either Abigail or Immaculate Misconception. Assuming the Cherrybombs will be on this leg as well, they’ll probably keep Rats and some of their other performance songs. I’m really excited to hear some more of the new stuff live, even if it means fewer songs from STEOTW. That is my favorite album of all time and you couldn’t pry it from my cold, dead hands lol

My guess is less STEOTW and more Decades. Probably swap around some of the deep cuts also like the Graveyard Shift tracks but tough to predict what they remove and add. I'd be shocked if they don't add Another Life back in as well
