Setlist

Other songs

"Let's Go" was performed once at the Boston show. "Coming Undone" had been listed on the setlist for Boston but it was not performed for unspecified reasons. "Proud" was a staple on the tour's first North American leg; it has since been replaced. "Illuminati" was played during The Path of Totality's album release party at the Hollywood Palladium. "Somebody Someone" was played once in Oberhausen, only to be replaced with "Oildale (Leave Me Alone)" at the next show. "Porno Creep" was played at the Indianapolis show, but has since been omitted from the set list, but was played at the Gurgaon show in Delhi, NCR in India.

Jonathan Davis confirmed via video chat that "B.B.K." is performed during rehearsals for the tour but is difficult to pull off live and may be performed in the future.

Broadcasts and recordings

An official release party for The Path of Totality took place on December 6 at the Hollywood Palladium, and featured several producers who worked on the album. This included Skrillex performing "Get Up!" and "Narcissistic Cannibal" on guitar with the band. This event was filmed for a DVD release, which will also be available in 3D and Blu-ray formats. The March 20 show in Amsterdam was specially streamed live on Korn's website and official Facebook page; the stream brought in a staggering 750,000 viewers online and may have a future DVD release.

Korn was scheduled to perform in Los Angeles at the 2012 Revolver Golden Gods Awards on April 11, but the band had to cancel due to Jonathan Davis' knee injury.

Korn: The Path of Totality Tour – Live at the Hollywood Palladium will be released on DVD and Blu-ray on September 4, 2012 by Shout! Factory.
