Reading this, I assume the set may have included (in no particular order):
Hit The City
Ode to Sad Disco
Death’s Head Tattoo
Nocturne
Beehive
Emperor
The Gravedigger’s Song
Riot in my House
Harvest home
Sleep with me
Floor of the ocean
Atmosphere
Death Trip To Tulsa
Metamphetamine Blues

So impatient to see Jeff Fiedler rocking Emperor on guitar

You forgot 100 Days and Black Rose Way, mentioned in the last article 16 songs pretty healthy setlist at this early stage, but kinda light on Gargoyle songs

This is the actual setlist, lifted from Facebook.

It's essentially the same set he's been playing with a handful of Gargoyle songs replacing other numbers. It'd be great to see some older tracks rotated in/out, but for whatever reason that doesn't seem to be in the cards.

I completely agree. Even when we get a rarely played live track (say a morning glory wine or a dead on you) from the last few years they never stay around for long and yet some tracks seemngly never die, yes im looking at you 'one way street'! I think Mark is selling himself short as he has so many wonderful songs from his back catalogue that still haven't been played live (el sol, beggars blues, praying ground, riding the nightingale, wheels, lexington etc etc etc!!!) and many classics that desperately need a revisit (winding sheet, undertow, carnival, borracho, mockingbirds).

What substandard tracks like riot in my house or harvest home are still doing in a setlist i have no idea. I don't want to hear black rose way and atmosphere either when we could be getting Judas touch and strange religion in their place. Its frustrating that Mark would rather play the middle of the road rockers than his more beautiful compositions that play to his strengths. Marks voice is still good but its becoming a little one dimensional, the upper register is not being used as much as live vocals are all becoming a bit gravelly and dull. Deepest shade when sung with some effort is the exception at present. Having said all that Mark is still the best artist ever even in second gear!
