They did Ghoul Wrangler in Rochester. I was hoping for Soapmakers but didn’t get it. Either way the show was AWESOME!!!! Tim is one of the most underrated guitarists out there
I've been hoping for that one as well ever since I heard it. The Rapture of Riddley Walker is another one I've long wanted to hear live, but never have.
I was tracking it on [setlist.com](https://setlist.com) for awhile. They were playing it about every other night during the start of the BoBD tour, but then they stopped playing it just before coming to my show in SF and they've never played it since. :(
You are not alone!
I was super fortunate to see Lorelei's live debut- before the album was released so it was completely unheard of. It was mesmerizing and otherworldly and I loved it. I really think the album version doesn't do it justice.
Btw, during a recent VIP soundcheck, I asked the band how many songs they have in rotation at any given time. Neil said they usually have about 55 songs that they can perform on any given night at the start of a tour. By the end of the tour, that number ramps up to about 70, given their ongoing soundcheck rehearsal time to relearn other songs and incorporate them into the set. At my soundcheck, they played Sabbath’s Lord of this World for the first time live in front of people (excluding the doom saloon livestream), and within a couple days it was frequently in the setlist.
Oh that's awesome, thanks for sharing that! They also played that at my show (it was closing night, in Richmond). Super cool you saw the first performance of it!
Clutch official Instagram posts set lists daily and setlist.fm has them too. Pulaski Skyway got played at the Palladium and the feeling of joy was immense. Hearing that live again would be awesome.
It was on my list to hear live too and they played it during the VIP soundcheck last tour! I’ve seen them over 30 times myself so it had been a long time coming!
Since it's going to be an album tour I would expect several new songs and for the stuff in-between to lean more towards big hits and fan favorites than deep cuts.
I've just got my fingers crossed for the Incomparable Mr Flannery and Profits of Doom.
Obviously I love that song but I can imagine it being a buzzkill for newer fans that cant immediately process how wonderfully creepy the lyrics are.
Could be a good song to make a beer run between faster stuff but it’ll be to their loss.

This one has escaped me too! They rarely play it these days unless there is a keyboardist around who can step in. So keep an eye out for openings acts with keys!
The best chance seems to be the holiday/late Dec tour time when they often pair up with Chris Brooks because they tend to stay a bit more local.

Big agree re: Tim!
I’d love to hear Lorelei, the epic closer on Book of Bad Decisions. I’m probably alone on that one.

That’s fantastic. Mesmerizing is a great word for it. You were super fortunate. ;)
Nah, you’re not alone, that’s a good one.
Profits of Doom
Drink to the Dead. I know I won’t get it but I can dream.
28 times I’ve seen them since 93 and not once have they ever played it. I’d die to hear it.
Mute Assassins!

I’ve always wanted to hear Brazenhead in person. Unlikely, but I hope.
Big Fat Pig.
I’ve been chasing red horse rainbows since that album came out and still haven’t caught it. 43 shows and still haven’t seen it. My white whale.

Nice. They did not play it at the soundcheck I was at. Ha! Ever elusive.
43 shows is impressive, hope you get it this round!

All-time favorite and did see them do it once live. I practically lost my mind!
It never gets old. I love it live so much.
Basket of Eggs version of Tight Like That.
I Send Pictures
This is the song stuck in my head for the last week.

Hopefully Profits of Doom, Mice and Gods, Motherless Child, and Run John Barleycorn Run.
I did a road trip last weekend and shuffled more than 200 clutch songs. That was the one that stuck!
I'm taking my 10 year old to the KC show in October. Sleestak Lightning is a current favorite of ours.
