This page contains a list of all known performances of Soldier's Poem.

Analysis and Explanation

Soldier's Poem was played regularly during 2006 and 2007, mainly due to the song being quite short and simple to perform live, often being played as the first song of the encore. Early performances of the song had Matt playing the song on piano, but later ones had him playing acoustic guitar as on the album. However, it made just 3 appearances in 2008 before being dropped at the end of the tour.

Since the Black Holes and Reverlations Tour ended, the song has only been played 5 times. At two stadium gigs in 2010 and at all three Eastern European dates in 2011. Although it looks unlikely it will return anytime soon, it was a setlist option at the 2017 Shepherd's Bush Empire by request gig, indicating that the band have not given up on the song yet.
