Queens of the Stone Age - Eras Tour

So my coworkers keep going on and on about Taylor Swift and her Eras tour where she sings a few songs from each album and it got me wondering....what would a Queens of the Stone Age "Eras" tour look like. I decided to make a setlist based off the most popular songs (in terms of plays on Spotify) and came up with the following list:

Self Titled

Regular John If Only Mexicola

Rated R

Feel Good Hit of the Summer Lost Art of Keeping a Secret Better Living Through Chemistry

Songs for the Deaf

Millionaire Go With the Flow No One Knows

Lullabies to Paralyze

Burn the Witch Little Sister In My Head

Era Vulgaris

Make it Wit Chu 3's and 7's Sick, Sick, Sick

...Like Clockwork

I Sat By the Ocean If I Had a Tail My God is the Sun

Villains

Feet Don't Fail Me The Way You Used to Do The Evil Has Landed

In Times New Roman

Emotion Sickness Paper Machete Carnavoyeur

Encore

Song for the Deaf Smooth Sailing Song for the Dead

What would you like to see if they did an "Eras" tour that touched on all albums? I'd say most of those songs would track for me except I'd probably swap out If I Had a Tail for I Appear Missing and I'd find a way to get First It Giveth onto the set list too.

Uhhh….Misfit Love really needs to be under Era Vulgaris. Please.

Good call on that. I was astonished at the low number of plays. IMO it's one of the best songs on the album and it's great live.

I agree! Amazing live!!

Drop: if only, in my head and 3s & 7s Add: can’t quit me, tangled up and misfit love..

Plus on the encore drop deaf and add in the fade..

Nice list, but I'd rather hear Fortress over The Way You Used to Do. After ITNR I feel like Josh is never going to play that song live again.

They played it 2 or 3 shows in a row just this weekend

I'd much rather here Fortress myself, but they just played The Way You Used to Do like a week ago at a festival. The whole show is up on youtube.

Edit: It was Hurricane festival. It's at the 56 minute mark.

Do people like In My Head that much, it just feels like a rehashed little sister to me. Any of the 4 songs after that would be better, or Long Slow Goodbye

Sir, you chose "If Only" over "Avon"...you may excuse yourself from Reddit now. Go on. Buh-bye.

He chose it based on Spotify popularity but I would choose Avon too, even over a lot of their later stuff. As a bonus encore, Lick Doo.

I didn't choose anything except the encore. All the songs listed are based on their popularity (most listened on Spotify).

Ah, my stumbly eyes tripped over that detail I guess. I suppose you may remain in Redditland. Forgive me for attempting to banish you.

What??? If only is a great song

1
Mean_Youth4323•

Indeed, it is. I just think "Avon" is an amazing song. And I think "If Only" is the weakest of the three that were originally listed.

This would be amazing. No changes from me really.

Get this list outta here!

Honestly, I would be so disappointed by this setlist, sooooo basic. If they did an Eras tour, they should include at least one deep cut from each record to make it exciting.
