Analysis and Explanation

Reapers has been a fan favourite since its debut in Belfast and was played very commonly during the Drones era - at one point holding the second highest performance count of any Drones song. Whenever Reapers was skipped at a live date, fans often jokingly reacted online by using the "#RIPers".

During the Drones World Tour the song was most commonly played after JFK towards the end of the set, in rotation with Revolt and Stockholm Syndrome. However, towards the end of the tour and for a few dates at the start of the tour, it was played near the start of the show, usually after Psycho (though at one or two shows it opened).

After Glastonbury Festival 2016 in June however, Reapers alongside JFK were dropped from setlists. Despite this, the song's outro riff was played very commonly in 2017 as an outro to Stockholm Syndrome. It was also partially played as part of the Metal medley for the Simulation Theory World Tour during virtually all dates in 2019 (only the intro, first verse and solo are played). It's yet to be played partially or in full since 2019, though it could still see a return in the future,

* JFK was played at a small amount of gigs in 2007 as intro music.

** Drones was played twice at every performance from its debut with three exceptions as of the last update. The actual total of gigs is highly inflated in comparison with other songs as a result. It has not been performed twice at festival dates, however, since the end of the 360 Tour in 2016.
