Difficult to say as the album is not out yet... but "Rain On The Graves" could be a cool opener, followed by "Accident of Birth".
...But of course, it won't be the case at all because I'm always surprised by Bruce's setlist choices.

Someone posted a screenshot from Tanya’s instagram where she had some of the setlist written down. I wonder if someone would be kind enough to repost it.

Yeah lets see how many new songs will be on the setlist. I bet Afterglow will open. Hope there are some surprises

Yes thats true! That would be great

Didn't Roy say in one of the interviews that he had some issues while recording? Something with his arm IIRC, so maybe the whole thing is health related.

Glad I got to see Roy live on the AOB tour, at least. That was a monster of a show with him and Adrian alongside Bruce in a tiny dive bar...

Spoiler

Hear, hear!

Saw Bruce with that same great band at a festival in July that same year. Happy memories!

I'm sure it feels flattering for Roy that you need two replacement guitarists for him. I have to say though, I'm conflicted. On one hand, it's good that they're using this opportunity to pull their heads out of their asses and tour with two guitarists, but it's a damn shame Roy doesn't get to tour with Bruce again considering how long it's been.

Not to mention, it's mostly his music that Bruce sings over. Feels like an extra kick in the balls to not even be able to get that live recognition for that.

I think @TheMercenary is to blame. She posts her review of the album, Bruce loves it, and he suddenly decides to tour with some (musical) mercenaries!

Like the Zulu Lulu/Jerusalem medley?

I kinda regret buying tickets so early.Glad for two guitarist but was looking forward seeing Roy up there with Bruce.Two months is a long time to reherse so my hopes are up that it will turn out great.

Session musicians will play for a variety people and can play a variety of music styles. It's a living.

I was honestly surprised Roy was on the touring lineup to begin with. I forget why specifically he didn't tour Chemical and got that weird Guru guy, but I vaaaaaguely remember Bruce mentioning in press (in the Chemical era) that Roy doesn't like touring all that much, and would rather stick around, record, and produce. Not sure what made him pull the trigger on leaving the tour this late in the day, but the press release mentioning the remixes makes sense, and if the above statement about him not liking to tour is accurate, he probably didn't need much of a push. Maybe he saw the remixes were going to be more work than he'd previously thought, a deadline he was iffy about hitting...who knows.

I have very little idea about Bruce solo touring musicians and unfortunately have not seen any live shows. Should fix that of course.
Those who know, is there a way to quantify how big a difference it makes who plays the material? Can it go from heavenly to shitshow, or is it usually more or less good?
