I had been waiting to see if there would be satellite gigs surrounding Cruel World before I booked lodging. This makes me wonder if there will be any. I imagine headlining two major festivals will be more than enough to make the U.S. visit worthwhile.

I imagine the group is not thrilled to be visiting the U.S. under this administration and the conditions. I no longer have Twitter but check Instagram. I've yet to see anything posted from the members surrounding their two gigs this week.

Brandon Flowers guesting on "Bizarre Love Triangle" and song #5 listed in multiple edits of the setlist as "unknown".

The word on Bluesky is that #5 was "Player in the League".

😝

SETLIST

Regardless of how you feel about Player In The League or State Of The Nation, at least this isn't the typical festival setlist.

Most of these songs are standard and they swap in a couple of wildcard tracks from show to show, regardless of whether at a festival or not.

I'm just hoping "Loveless", or "Nothing but a Fool" displaces "Player in the League" tomorrow.
