The Show
Staging-wise, the usual festival production was utilised. While the lenght of the setlist echoed the festivals one, there were lots of changes in the order of the songs :
- Simulation Theory Theme / JFK opened the show
- Won't Stand Down was the first song of a show for the first time since the first few shows of the WOTP era in early 2022
- Will of the People was played later in the set
- Resistance, Madness and Plug in Baby were played earlier in the show
- Pressure was played for the first time since March 2023
- The band played Hangign in Victory Square from the 1984 score (co-composed by Matt) before Time is Running Out
- Behold, the Glove was not played as an intro to Uprising for the first time since 2022
- The main set closed with Knights of Cydonia
- An unexpected encore was played consisting of Isolated System, Undisclosed Desires and Starlight
