2006 Summer Tour Setlist Game Winners
Posted by Joe Maliszeski in antsmarching.org Site News at 1:00pm on Sunday, Oct 8th, 2006Now that the tour has ended, we can announce the 2006 Summer Tour Setlist Winners! Last years setlist game saw a steady stream of the same songs as the band supported Stand Up (played 42% of the time), but as this year tour saw a little less predictable sets has the band mixed it up night to night. This year saw almost an equal breakdown among the albums; Unreleased (17%), Stand Up (15%), BTCS (15%), Crash (14%). Very impressing this year was that 3 of the Top 10 finishers did not play all the shows, one of which was the overall winner. Missing a show is pretty much a guaranteed loss of ground in the standings in the range of 25-30 points.
The Setlist Game also gives us an indication into how predictable the Band was for the tour. This year's average points scored per show was just a fraction higher then last years, meaning the Band's setlists were just about as hard/easy to predict as the 2005 Summer Tour. Also interesting to note was that picking songs that would be played this year was harder then last year but picking the spots of songs was much easier. Openers and Closers were easier to pick this year also.
Big thanks to the 2,168 of you that tried for the prizes and joined in on the fun, it was a blast. Congratulations to those of you that won and earned bragging rights and prizes. For those of you that didn’t win, we hope you are prepared for next tour.
