Notes

Only the first verse and chorus of "Transylvania" are played. "Do What You Want", "Red" and "Touch The Rain" are brand new songs that will feature on the band's upcoming sixth studio album. Only a snippet from the opening of "POV" is played. "She Falls Asleep" and "Down Goes Another One" lead on from each other, and only half of each song is played. "Obviously" and "All About You" lead on from each other. "Everybody Knows" begins, then breaks into the six track medley, before returning to the final chorus. "Walk in the Sun" is performed by solely by Danny Jones.[3]

gollark: I heard it was a cluster of some pine64 SBCs.
gollark: While I don't like systemd's overintegration, I have to admit the unit files are a pretty nice thing to have.
gollark: Most stuff is available with just a browser these days, though.
gollark: Main cores and RAM on, low-power core on and RAM slower, RAM on low-power and cores off.
gollark: Can't you just have more low-power modes?
