We occasionally opened sets with it afterward but we opened the show with for a long time.
I programmed everything for the first 2 verses. The guitarist would add swells & feedback, the drummer cymbal flourishes, & the bass player would just hammer on the body for a low drone bass.
In the same place as the record, where the drums come in, we'd go full live. Pyro, all the bright white lights, heavy guitar....
Very fun to do
