As Simon recently confirmed in an interview, the set list is comprised of 1/3 new material and 2/3 old. If the recent concerts and tv appearances in the U.S. are any indication, then the new songs performed will be:
Paper Gods Pressure Off What Are the Chances? Last Night in the City Danceophobia You Kill Me with Silence
We know their typical set list is 18-20 songs, so that would be it. The remaining 12-14 songs will be the “classics” (see below) that the audience expects and maybe a couple of surprises for the diehard fans. It’ll be interesting to see if AYNIN or Girl Panic make it on to the set list.
Girls on Film HLTW Rio The Reflex Wild Boys AVTAK Notorious Ordinary World Come Undone White Lines (I know, I know but it has become a staple of their repertoire) Sunrise

Probably in the minority but White Lines is one if my favourites live!
At least though can we drop one live staple song (HLTW/AVTAK or The Reflex) and swap it for say Electric Barbarella/All She Wants Is/Nice/Friends of Mine for example?
Also did I imagine it or did DD do a poll asking about what live song to play - Save a Prayer or Seventh Stranger, hope they do Seventh Stranger!

I'm also hoping ( against hope) for skin trade. I'm pretty sure they haven't played it live since the 89 big thing tour

Wasn't NMOM filmed in Marseille though? Google The Great & Powerful (coming to Cinemas 2016) tells me it was filmed in a place called "Noyers" in Burgundy in north-central France. It is approximately a two hour drive south-east of Paris. Wikipedia The Flawed & Erroneous (going straight to VHS 2017) tells me the following: The origins of Noyers are unclear. It was founded by the king of Sequani Gaul tribe, just before the Roman conquest, or by a contemporary of Julius Caesar called Lucidorius. He would have given the city its first name, Lucida.
Around and after the 12th century the city became the seat of the Miles family. At the end of the twelfth century, Hugues de Noyers, bishop of Auxerre, built "one of the most famous castles of France". It was beleaguered by Blanche de Castille’s troops in 1217, but it did resist.
In 1419, at the end of the Miles dynasty, Noyers became the property of the dukes of Burgundy. The prince of Condé became count of Noyers. He made a Huguenot place of the city and took refuge in it after the defeat of the Amboise conspiracy in 1568. But Catherine de Médicis dislodged him and the garrison surrendered.
Later the castle was dismantled by King Henry IV in 1599. After a long time of lethargy the city revived in 1710 when the duke of Luynes married the last descendant of the Condé family.
Wine and grain trade were prosperous at Noyers. A lot of documents attest there were plenty of vines, walnut-trees and cherry-trees over the hills all around Noyers. Till the beginning of the twentieth century a great part of local craftsmen was represented by cartwrights, harness-makers, coopers, farriers and shoe makers. In 1861 there were 128 vine-growers and 25 tillage-farmers. Today they are not so many but farmers are still keeping their places.
Duran Duran coming to such a place would have easily been the region's highlight in its underwhelming 3500 year existence. I Have no idea why this isn't mentioned. I can see the advertisements now: Noyers - Home to New Moon On Monday since 1984.

What Are The Chances and Pressure Off are fantastic songs, Paper Gods is tolerable, but the less said about the rest the better.

Really can't be doing with White Lines - if it wasn't near the end of the set, I'd be off for toilet break at that point. Drop it and put in Shadows on Your Side. Reflex might go - how many times will a member of the audience get to sing the opening? Surely every member of the audience doesn't have to know every song to enjoy the gig. I hope Save a Prayer goes in but I think Simon will do his "Remember Paris" before OW. From PG, I'd settle for PG, LNITC, PO, YKMWS and WATC. Danceophobia? - no thanks.
