Gala Event vs. "Regular" Show-what's the difference?

[keels]

I realize that this title makes me sound as though I haven't been paying attention to any of the announcements and what not. I read the FAQs and didn't find anything that I thought applied to my question.

With these instrumental shows, are they singing as well? From my perspective I figured "instrumental" means anything they actually play music for instead of relying on MMM all night.

Is there a place to find all the recent set lists?

I'm going to both shows in Chicago, but I have extra tickets for both nights and the friends that want to go are basing their desired night choice based on what's getting played. They could jam "mary had a little lamb" all night long, I will still be there smiling from ear to ear.
I.CAN'T.WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

an "exclusive instrumental show" will be the band exclusively on their instruments.... the instruments make the music and the band sings and raps and dances around....

the regular shows will feature more of Mix Master Mike and will feature more of the classic songs with scratching and sampling...

the instrumental shows, however, WILL feature songs with lyrics, but they will be new arrangements of older hits, such as "Remote Control", "Do It", "Jimmy James" and "Live at PJs"

Gala Events are intended for the fans who appreciate the Beastie Boys' entire catalogue of work (hip-hop/rap, hardcore, rock, instrumentals). The Gala Events showcase the Beastie Boys new songs from "The Mix-Up," an all-instrumental (i.e., no vocals) album; however, the show is NOT strictly instrumental. When Beastie Boys say "instrumental show," they mean a show in which the songs are performed with instruments, not turntables. They do sing at the instrumental shows!
