With a four-show run in Paris to kick off The Eras Tour now over, fans are keenly examining how Paramore have been switching up their setlists every night while out on the road supporting Taylor Swift in stadiums.
And much like the pop superstar headliner, Paramore have thrown a surprise song into every performance at the La Défense Arena between Thursday, May 9 and Sunday, May 12.
While the bulk of their nine-song setlist has remained the same, Hayley Williams, Zac Farro and Taylor York have seemingly selected track five each evening to play something different than the day before – first in that spot we got Brick By Boring Brick, then the following night it was Rose Colored Boy (plus a snippet of I Wanna Dance With Somebody). Then, on Saturday Paramore performed Forgiveness, and last night their surprise choice five songs in was Decode.
The European and UK leg of The Eras Tour runs all the way
through to August 20, where it’ll finish up at London’s Wembley Stadium. Can we
expect a surprise Paramore song every time from now until then? They’ve
certainly got enough material at this point, so watch this space…
What does seem to be guaranteed, though, are the likes of Hard
Times, Still Into You, The Only Exception and more, plus their cover of Talking
Heads’ Burning Down The House.
