It's not too early, right?

Right..?

Well I suppose it's ever too early for speculating and guessing the setlist of the Run For Your Lives world tour! With LOTB, a similar thread & contest was opened relatively close to the first date of the tour, but for Future Past tour 2023 we started as early as 6th of October 2022... So let's roll with somewhat similar schedule.

The deadline for the entries will be Sunday 18th of May 2025.
The first show of the tour will take place on 27th of May, so sneaky soundcheck/rehearsal audio recorded outside the venue of the first show shouldn't affect the results this time... ;)
The rules are exactly the same as on the previous two runs:

  • You can submit one speculative setlist you believe they might play in the first show; possible setlist changes after that won't affect the scoring.
  • Doctor, Doctor or any subsequent intros such as the actual Tour intro with a video, Churchill's speech, Ides of March, Transylvania (as a show intro, not when actually played somewhere in the set) etc. don't count.
  • Please separate the encore(s) from the main set & use numbering, example given below:
    1. The Wicker Man
    2. Run to the Hills
    3. Sheriff of Huddersfield
    4. etc...
    12. Iron Maiden
    -- / ENCORE / just leave an empty row in between etc.
    13. The Number of the Beast
    14. Brave New World
    15. Running Free

    Scoring:

    A song in a submitted set is played - 1p per song


    The submitted set has the correct total amount of songs - 1p


    A song is submitted in a correct setlist position - 1p per song
    Example: The Wicker Man is put as 10th song in a set submitted by Member X and it's actually played as tenth song in the set; therefore Member X gains 2 points since the submitted song is featured in the set and it's position is the very same too.

    NOTICE: even if your set has too many/too few songs you can still earn correct setlist position point (1) if a song happens to be a closer to the main set (Iron Maiden, anyone?) or a show closer.
    Example with TBOS 2016-17 scenario: Member X's set has 16 songs but they'll play only 15. However, Member X has listed Iron Maiden as the main set closer and Wasted Years as the show closer. 2 x 2p provided.

Prize: ETERNAL (death or) GLORY!
