What about Stratego? Is the promo single a must for this year’s setlist?

I think they will drop it.

I wouldn´t mind if they play it! Great song!

So opinions are mostly divided. So from Senjutsu: The Writing on the Wall (single), Hell on Earth (fan favorite), The Time Machine (a Harris-Gers must). These three are obvious to be played.

Agree. It's now or never. If they don't they would disappoint a good number of fans.

I believe Bruce was quoted as saying he was looking forward to singing The Time Machine live, back when Senjutsu was released.

I am 100% sure they will play The Time Machine and there will be special scenography or maybe some big changes on the stage (for example from future to the past) right after or before that song.

It will be awesome if they played When Two Worlds Collide as the devider from SIT to Senjutsu world, and then change the set (during a small break)

My updated guess is for the opening trio of:
Caught Somewhere in Time
Days of Future Past
The Time Machine
(all using the same backdrop and set, and then the banner drops, the lights get brighter and...)
"Something old, something new...let's time travel back to our Jurassic Period...
WRATHCHILD!!!!!!"

This show I went to in 86 actually has 10 songs the same as the fake setlist. I went the previous night too and they added Wrathchild as Bruce said for the ones who came last night. Phantom and ROTM are still massive highlights from all the shows I've seen. I'd happily drop Hallowed, Trooper, NOTB, FOTD, RTTH, etc to accommodate some deeper cuts.

I know it'll never happen, but I'd love Phantom instead of Fear as a nod to Somewhere on Tour's setlist (even though it was actually a late addition on that tour after they switched a few songs around and dropped some). Plus it's actually been a decent while since they've played it last and in general it's hardly a staple.

Well, adding Parchment (2nd SJ epic is expected), Alexander (after all the hints), a short song like Futureal and the usual 5 classic is not unrealistic at all. Also, No Trooper? No NOTB?
Not quite.
That's a great idea! I don't expect big changes to the stage set though.
Nicko likes the song, Bruce should sound fine, but it has no chance, unfortunately.
Agreed about Hallowed, but they might need to cut some of the longer songs.
I think the first 2 songs will be from SIT and SJ.
As much as I love Stratego, it has to go so we can hear another new song. Nicko will be glad about that.
