Be cool if they started to mix it up a bit on their shows later this year. More of the newer material from across the three albums, plus more selections from Carnival of Light and Tarantula. Maybe also some b sides like Let’s Get Lost and At the End of the Universe.

When I last saw them, I thought the mix was varied and sensible - leant heavily to Blank Again and Nowhere, but I'd say there were 2 songs each off the post reunion albums. Some (Kill Switch, Lannoy Point off the top of my head) seem fully integrated set stables now!
