Don't really see that as Vertigo has a raw, immediate feel. Elevation is a more modern rock track that was suited to that inro. They might just walk out with the lights on like last time and blast it out, unannounced.
Consider that before the Elevation remix tape played, the audience was treated to a lot of songs with "love" in the title, ending with The Beatles' All You Need Is Love.
What would be cool this time around is a selection of punk rock that the audience could get fired up by. I'm not talking the really hard stuff, but The Ramones, The Clash, The Buzzcocks. Even The Who could be in there. I think stuff that inspired them in their early days would play into the "this is our first album" thing.
