So that is all for now from me. Hope you like it. Up next: The mighty H (hopefully this afternoon).

EDIT: I added on which songs the backup guitars were used. If the song isn't written by the backup guitar, then it was performed by the main guitar (I didn't bother to write the whole setlists). If a guitar is a backup but doesn't have any song written in brackets, that means that it usually wasn't used.
