IMO Big Empty is their best opening song. It loses its touch when its played fourth or fifth in the set  Slow songs that open up at the end are a great way to start any show. Foo Fighters also did it with "Let it Die"

It works as an encore. It's too long to be an opener IMO.
 
Dedicated. Disgusting. Disturbing.

I'm just sittin' on this merry-go-round, and the music is too loud..

I'd like Wicked Garden as opener, the song's intro is perfect, everybody would react almost immediately, but back to Dead and bloated, I think fit perfect like the first song on the encore, imagine when the last song ends the lights turn out and nobody can see its own nose, suddenly scott sings

"I am smellin' like the rose that somebody gave me on my birthday deathbed. I am smellin' like the rose that somebody gave me 'cause I'm dead & bloated "

AWESOME, PERFECT TO ME

Its its a heavy tune Id have  to say DOWN as the opener.  I still dont get why it has been dropped from the setlist, its great live and gets great crowd reaction.
 
But the Big Empty opener was cool too ... imagined they opened with ATLANTA??

Was thinking how cool Huckleberry would be, those first coupe of riffs piercing the air aint a bad way to go.
