Have Paramore made changes to their Eras Tour setlist?

As we've mentioned above, Paramore's original Eras Tour setlist in Glendale was slightly different to their Paris setlist. As for which songs they cut from Glendale, 'Decode', 'Rose-Colored Boy' and 'Misery Business' were switched out in favour of 'Burning Down the House', 'Caught in the Middle' and the surprise song segment.

Originally, 'That's What You Get' was part of the European setlist. However, Paramore replaced it with 'Misery Business' in Stockholm at Taylor's request. Track 4 also changed from 'Caught in the Middle' to 'That's What You Get' and, finally, 'Forgiveness'.
