It’s early 2006, SOAD just finished one of their best years and despite hating them with every inch of their being, were pretty big on MTV. Let’s say they were to do an unplugged show, like big bands did in the 90s. And of course, with SOAD being SOAD, they went off a setlist not pitched to them by MTV, went too long and also played explicit songs that MTV would hate.

Here is what my ideal setlist would look like:

1. B.Y.O.B

2. Aerials

3. Revenga

4. Chop Suey!

5. Hypnotize (first and seconds verses only)

6. Kill Rock N’ Roll (Daron plays intro to Lonely Day to tease fans and producers but changes mid intro riff)

7. Roulette

8. When The Smoke Goes Down (Scorpions cover)

9. Violent Pornography (done to piss off MTV)

10. Suggestions

11. Toxicity

12. Ego Brain (with Arto intro)

13. Dreaming (bridge)

14. Lonely Day

15. Forest

16. Needles

17. Question!

18. Lost In Hollywood

19. Spiders

20. Sugar (up until final verse)

21. Prison Song (finishes Sugar at end of the song)

22. Sartarabad (Armenian folk song cover)
