LB and MYM remain staples
Occasionally Pendulum and Yellow Moon pop up in Encore 1
Rest are gone
No way LB and MYM are played every night. Why would Pendulum appear in the encore? It was almost exclusively a show opener. I'm sure it'll still open a show or two.
They used to play pendulum as an Opener but they did it in the encore when I saw them in 2016 at MSG along with songs like all or none and I have a feeling that’s where it stays.
And I didn’t mean every night. Just frequently like Unthought Known

I'd be ok with the band never playing Unthought Known again.

Pendulum has appeared 89% as an opener. 7% in the encores. All of its appearances in 2018 were as an opener.

I like that one as an opener too. Can't Keep as well.

Release, Long Road, Of the Girl, Pendulum, Go, Wash, and Can't Keep are all acceptable openers.

Oceans would like a stern word with you.
Release aside, I've seen some pretty non-standard openers:
MFC (98)
Small Town (06)
Porch (06)
Release (09)
Why Go (14)
I would happily see any of the above with the exception of Pendulum, which is a terrible song.

Oceans is a good song and works well as an opener, but I don't want 2020 Ed singing it.

I’ve heard HTI 29383838 times as an opener.

I saw them open with RVM in '93, Who You Are in '96, and Alive in '03, which were all pretty awesome!
At this point, the non-standard opener should be the standard for openers.
Standard = Boring.

I’d be surprised.
I haven’t checked but it felt like it had already been relegated to a “sometimes” song in recent years.
They had to start tuning it down, which is never a good sign, and it also involves complicated in-song guitar changes.
Seems like a lot of work when they have new songs in that vein to play.

if they don’t open with that dissonant/chaotic sound garble (that was released as an early snippet) and then slam into a rocker, it will feel like a wasted opportunity

The only one I’m really hoping I get to open is Oceans. Still haven’t had it, and if they don’t open with it, chances are I’m not going to get it.
I can easily see them opening with DotC then straight into some balls-out jam like Go or BoJ.

DotC is the start of encore 2 or the transfer from stool to standings song in enc 1

Hard to say until we hear the rest of the record but I’m thinking it’s a first third of the main set (3rd, 4th or 5th song) kind of song.
