    Steeling all our ideas then eh

    Here's our set from last Fridays gig:

    I Can’t Explain
    You Really Got Me
    Helter Skelter
    Sex On Fire
    Wishing Well
    Sultans Of Swing
    Foxy Lady
    Pride and Joy
    Come Together
    Seven Nation Army
    Lil’ Devil
    Crossroads

    Break

    Teenage Kicks
    Hard To Handle
    All The Small Things
    Running Down A Dream
    American Idiot
    Pretty Woman
    Ballroom Blitz
    Suspicious Minds
    All Right Now
    Caroline
    I Saw Her Standing There
    Rock N Roll Medley

    ..and then we got a genuine encore so played Jumping Jack Flash

    Bit of a mixed bag really. We've always done the classic rock stuff but wanted to do a few more modern ones (hence the KOL, White Stripes, Green Day etc etc). There was also a couple there who were looking to book us for a wedding hence things like 'Pretty Woman' and 'Suspicious Minds' were added at the last minute (they booked us so must have worked).

    Same here, started with the idea of picking lesser played songs (Led Zeps Living Lovin' Maid was one rather than Whole Lotta Love or Rock'n'Roll)

    Then you get the 'Play something we know' heckles and resort back to the usual stuff.

    You've got to give the audiance what they want, (he who pays the piper....) but also keep the band interested. Difficult one to maintain for years that, but then we've only recently got back togther so I've enjoyed playing the ones I got bored of last time around (apart from Sweet Home Fricking Alabama...how I hate that song )

    Yes I have got some of the staple songs in there - but I think everyone will know everything else thats on the list - not looking for bizarre b'sides or 20 minute solos...

    Also having two female singers, one of which can do rock really well and one that can do aretha and soul really well helps a whole lot....
