Analysis and Explanation

Dig Down was the first song from the Simulation Theory era to make its live debut after it was released as a single in May 2017. It made its live debut the same month at the start of the 2017 North America Tour as the show's opener and was performed at every show for the rest of the year, and was always preceded by a short synth introduction. Dig Down returned in 2018 for most shows, though not as the show intro. Instead, the song was performed midway through the setlist and sometimes in conjunction with Isolated System.

The Acoustic Gospel Version, released on the deluxe version of the album, was given its live debut in October 2018 on Later... with Jools Holland, with Holland on piano and a full choir performing alongside the band. This performance of the song was the only one to feature Matt on acoustic guitar, Chris on bass and Dom on acoustic drums, as future performances saw Matt on piano, Chris on guitar, and Dom on electronic drums.

The Acoustic Gospel Version was played during the Simulation Theory World Tour in 2019 instead of the regular album version, apparently due to the band growing tired of playing the normal version. It was performed at every main show that year around midway through the show, with all members performing together on the B-stage. It's not been played live since the tour's conclusion and it looks unlikely that it will return anytime soon.
