Setlist Plan
Section updated 6/9/2026, 1:28:24 AM EDT
Best filming windows
- Be in position before downbeat: "Once In A Mile" has the strongest opener signal (100%).
- First 10-minute window: "How to Get Her" often lands early (100%).
- Finale window: keep A-cam rolling for "Ain't Been There Yet" (closer probability 67%).
- Do not clear early: "What Was I Thinkin'" is a common encore (100%).
- Set order is volatile across recent shows. Keep one roaming camera available for pivots.
