Still think Go is not as powerful as an opener but damn I love it. And these visuals (nice touch with each of the polygon figures dropping when hit with a ray light)!

The starting sounds too sharp and unfinished

So in the live sets 2018 topic to Instagram links for UTI and EML which are added in the set. UTI means no IDM anymore but where does EML fit in? Before HBHG means it's behind Making me high what seems like a weird transition imo.  The only known setlist on setlist.fm is the Luxemburg one. Strange...

There's still IDM! It's fused with Under The Influence once again and a little bit of Don't Think's beats. I'm assuming EML replaced Let Forever be or was inserted somewhere in the Free Yourself/Mad As Hell/Believe part of the set given Chemical Beats is retained.

As it is now, it sort of lacks a bit of an energetic build-up/ tension like Come With Us, Galvanize and HBHG or even Another World had. To start the frenzy, I'd like them to tease the crowd until they can't hold out no longer but dance. Go is an awesome tune but, I believe, better placed before (because of it last beat salad madness part) or right after a heavy loaded sequence (to calm down a little) because it is a bit "empty" in its first part where you'd actually want to get the crowd moving.

Looks like HBHG come right after Gotta Keep On

Perhaps EML comes after that?


Gotta Keep On (I guess, because I didn't listen to it, I swear! Ok, just a few seconds)

Here's HBHG/Saturate/Elektrobank/Piku Playground

This basically confirms EML must have been played earlier in the set, but no video has shown up yet.

Notice how short HBHG has become? Maybe this is the secret behind the additions, cutting things shorter to squeeze some (old) new ones in? And for Piku, there's a percussion type of sample towards the end (11:24). Could this be another hint at a new track?

Btw, gotta love the Prague audience. Pretty appreciative and responsive. They definately enjoyed their time compared to the Luxembourg crowd.

I called it (as well as some other members), they did cut Let forever Be.
you also left out escape velocity.

So still - where is EML Ritual in all that?

I have a feeling that EML comes before or after EBW 12..

There you have it (again :) ) including a bit of Snow Surface which I think should get its special place back in the set with a good overture like the magical Apple show one.

definitely after, here's a video that shows Free Yourself and EBW12 back to back (in potato quality as the title suggests)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk2spK_DsLU

and chemical beats has proven to be a part of the setlist on IG so they must have made a new transition from EML to CB, or LFB was retained because of how short it was claimed to be in Rockhal's performance

My guess is EML is after Believe, in the place of Let Forever Be and Chemical Beats, because we haven't seen any videos from that yet.

my theory (judging from the gotta keep on making me high video above), is that it comes in between Star Guitar and GKOMMH.

To be honestly, for me, it's the same bassline, that coming through all show.
All the videos that i've saw from Metronome Festival, it's fucking the same bassline from TB-03 with some variations to be a quick fill to the parts of some tracks (i mean tracks, where you can catch 303 parts, except FR-Revolution in UTI/ITM and pre-recorded FR-777 for Galvanize).

It's 2 or 3 similar patterns on TB-03.
Because of this, all the confusions is in conjecture.

Patterns that sound like 303 for KOMMH and MAH is going from Minilogue.

Nope, you can still hear the Star Guitar synths in the beginning if you listen closely

An idea came to my mind. After release of the album the bros can use Eve Of Destruction as an opener. The start of the song fits wery well. The rhythm that keeps in anticipation and then the funky beat that makes everybody dancing.

I second that, I actually mentioned long ago along with the idea of using George and Mildred as a gimmick for the robotic vocals

EDIT: Along with Eve being an opener Go can go right after like it did in their DJ sets

I know they did this with their DJ sets in late 2017, but do they want to open a live gig with a relatively unknown track?

Um, what/who is George & Mildred in the Chemical sense? I am familiar with this George & Mildred:

George and Mildred were names penned by Adam and Lyall for the giant robots!

There's a pretty neat article about them from the company SpecialZ that build them
http://www.specialz.co.uk/chemical-brothers.html

To this end, Specialz were charged with creating a huge 3m diameter reflector, a set of bespoke dollies pre-rigged with Sharpys and last but certainly not least two mechanical robots, George and Mildred respectively and standing approximately 15' high apiece.
