I'll take Near Fantastica for 1000 Trebek, no seriously, last time Matt was here, sans acoustic obviously, he came right out to near fantastica, blew my effing mind

I think Giant is a great encore.

 

Blue Skies over Badlands is a great openner.

I voted for 21st Century living. I just finished listening to the two different Live versions, just love them both. On the other hand Near Fantastica, Giant and all the rest are amazing as well.

Listening back to some shows from the 2003 Avalanche tour I have to say that "Pledge of Allegiance" should be on that list. It is a slow building song that fit everything perfectly. I forgot how great it was of an opener until I took a trip down memory lane.

 

Although, with that said, I voted for "Put Out Your Lights" because the 'flip a coin' opening on the Revue tour was very high energy and was all about the rock.

Agreed about Pledge.

He opened up the show in Kitchener with The Man from Harold Wood once...this was the most perfect way to open up the show....I had goosebumps running up my spine... ;)

As for the poll Giant is great as a encore opener for sure...I really wouldn't mind Weapon as an opener because it is a great way to get everyone pumped!!!

21st Century Living, just because Near Fantastica would be the closer.
