Playing ready for drowning in practice one of our favourites hope it makes it into the setlist xx

If it's one of their favourites and they're rehearsing it, why wouldn't it make it into the setlist? o__O

I was thinking just this morning that I really hope they'd play that again! Gorgeous song.

Wooo, really pleased they're rehearsing some different material. I love Ready For Drowning...not sure I've seen it live before....infact, no, I haven't, so that'll be a great addition

It could be Wayne tweeting and he might not have much of a say what makes it onto the setlist.

I very much doubt it would be Wayne tweeting. If he wouldn't have much say in the setlist, why would they let him lose with their Twitter account?

It sounding shit in rehearsal.

Oh it was just a thought, although I think he'd be allowed a little more freedom with a twitter account than he would with the setlist for a huge tour.

Ready For Drowning

Scarecrow · #**371** 07-07-2010, 14:25

I haven't seen them do that one. The acoustic with keyboards version eluded me on the SATT tour, here's hoping I can finally catch them do it.

BrianPowell · #**372** 07-07-2010, 14:30

So far we know, Empty Souls, Sleepflower and Ready For Drowning are being rehearsed. Patrick Bateman, Love's Sweet Exile and The Intense Humming of Evil are too, they just haven't bothered to inform us yet.

Don't get my hopes up.

Ready for Drowning? Yes!

As to why songs don't make the setlist - as well as band members being possibly unhappy about them, some songs just sound really shit when you try to perform them. Isn't necessarily about the complexity, just sometimes they can't quite be nailed in a convincing fashion. Bit like Masses Against the Classes...

My heart started pumping in my throat reading that!! I need to wake up, seriously.
