Over at the Henhouse, one of the guys was sitting behind the soundboard in Syracuse, and the setup is all digital this tour with the lights being preprogrammed for each song.
The list of songs he saw for the light setup was:
Gems, Boots, 50 MC, Puttin', Luxury, Darkest One, Daredevil, Pigeon, and Fighter Fighter (which means they should play it again, if the lights have been choreographed for it).

Argh! I would kick a nun to see them play Boots live again. Wonder how often they'll pull these rarities out.

Okay, so Boots is a rarity...
What other songs are considered rare?, so I know how lucky I am when they play it at GM Place.

yeah, boots definately doesn't get played enough, same thing goes for 50MC. and imagine...being there when they busted out the luxury! that's as good as it gets for rarities IMO (unless they broke one of their rules and played 38 years, fiddlers, or anything from s/t).

I noticed that at the last show they played Inevitability of Death which, call me wrong, they haven't played for a while, and the tune is definitely a highlite from DFN.
