Drill Sergeant was performed solely as the intro to Psycho, just as it did on the album. The band played no instruments during this song and it was merely played by a tape.

* 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.
