Notes
- At the end of "False News Travel Fast", Jani Liimatainen plays a riff that is closely similar to the main riff of the song "Speed of Light" by Stratovarius (a similar riff is also used in "Future Shock"). Jani Liimatainen also plays that riff before the first chorus of "Blank File" in the same concert.
