The tour for its release and a few after were where they gained a lot of fans and it defines the live experience for a lot of those people.

That's right, I said it...THOSE people.
I'd find it weird that of all the albums he/they chose to play in it entirety for the first time that they would pick Everyday, but I do agree that moving in a poppier direction helped them sustain the popularity they enjoyed throughout the 2000s
