Strange Currencies making the fewest number of appearances in the set (6/18). This may change in the U.S. due to its release as a single. - The regular set (before the encore) tends to start and end with the louder and and faster material. Kenneth, Circus Envy and I Took Your Name usually start the set. Star 69, Finest Worksong, End of the World and Get Up usually end the set. - Out of Time material tends to occur in the middle of the set, with some AFTP songs usually following Tongue and Man on the Moon. - The selections of material from pre-Monster albums has been somewhat limited so far. Songs from Out of Time performed during the Green World tour (Belong, Low) or the 1991 promotional tour (Radio Song, Endgame) have not appeared in the set to date. A number of songs from AFTP (Sidewinder, Sweetness Follows, Ignoreland, Find the River) and songs from Green which were performed during that tour (You are the Everything, World Leader Pretend, I Remember California) have yet to be performed during the Monster tour. - The new song Revolution has been played at every show so far. Another new song, Departure, appeared when the tour reached Europe. It replaced You in the European sets I have seen. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Questions and suggestions: email to: "Martin A.
