Guessing the setlist from random Instagram posts: Club Foot, Fire, Underdog, LSF, SBS, STR, Empire, Scriptvre, Alygatyr, BTAH
Fraser T. Smith played with them for some reason because Robert was unavailable I guess

Is that a backing vocals track running in the background at 01:57 whilst Serge fixes his mic pack?....

Someone in the video comments said that they used a backing track because Rob wasn't there to sing backing vocals. I don't know, maybe they should have hired someone who isn't also in another touring band?

*Sigh*... It's just not the same is it? I mean, I know it's quite literally not the same. But the stage dynamics and everything.... it's just not the group I fell in love with. I think I'm still in genuine grief.

I think I'm still in genuine grief. It’ll take time. I think if you’re at the gig it will still be amazing cause Serge is great and you don’t notice vocals/vibe as much. But yeah the videos… I’m not feeling it either

The fact we're saying 'hopefully we won't hear the vocals much live' kind of says it all where we're at.
As much as I respect Serge's creative talents, he's not the frontman this band needs. In a warped way, I think I'd have preferred they got a legit frontman replacement for Tom.

I'm hoping they'll move on a little bit more from the old songs as they release new music. The new material feels like a natural continuation of where they were already going with 48:13, FCOL and SLP, but also very different from songs like LSF and Underdog obviously. I wish they would play things like Test Transmission and Acid Turkish Bath instead of the ones that just sound awkward when Serge sings them. But I also get why they want to play the hits, especially in this transitional phase. Maybe once they're more confident in their future success without Tom they'll experiment a bit more.
I've been really excited the past few weeks with the new songs and interviews and the album to look forward to, but the BTAH video just made me unhappy lol.

True but it's not like their regular gig setlists were ever particularly inspired
