Analysis and Explanation

Defector has been a fan favourite off of the album, with many fans begging for it to be played live before its debut. By September, half of the album had still yet to be played live (the entire latter half of the album after JFK). It made its debut at the Music for Life gig on September 16 2015, and has yet to be played since. The gig was viewed as "special" for one reason or another, as Agitated and United States of Eurasia were also performed (two songs that had been played very rarely during the tour). It is unknown why the band have yet to revisit the song live. It is more than likely it will reappear sometime in 2016 for further performances, however alongside Aftermath, the song had no indications of being played live anytime soon.

A fan asked Matt to play the song in Amsterdam, to which he replied "we'll play it in Brussels!". The band did not. Later, a fan on twitter asked Matt to play it, Matt replied that they were going to play the song the next day at Zürich. Defector finally reappeared in setlists at the next gig.

* 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.
