Mercy (live)

This page contains a list of all known performances of Mercy.

Analysis and Explanation

Mercy has been a constant part of the setlist since its live debut, only skipping four dates (15/05/2015, 16/05/2015, 08/06/2015, and 11/11/2015), of which the latter two were promotional gigs. The song, as one of the major singles from the album, will likely continue being performed at nearly every date of the tour. Confetti is often thrown out into the crowd during this song during live performances. Mercy was commonly introduced with Matt yelling "Put your hands in the air!!" during 2015 gigs.

* JFK was played at a small amount of gigs in 2007 as intro music.

** Drones was played twice at every performance from its debut with three exceptions as of the last update. The actual total of gigs is highly inflated in comparison with other songs as a result. It has not been performed twice at festival dates, however, since the end of the 360 Tour in 2016. Back to Number of Live Performances
