Setlist Ideas for John
Well, he asked for it! I'm not quite sure how this would best be done. I suppose we can all post song suggestions, then summarize some of the most popular choices as well as some cool rare cuts that were mentioned. Maybe we can PM the song suggestions to Marty & Lis to forward to John.
I'm not stupid, I know we can't collectively choose the entire setlist. But if he's seriously asking, maybe we could have some influence, even if it's just a song or two. Perhaps there's a slightly obscure tune that he/they've honestly never considered doing, or a song that hasn't been done in a long time that he/they assumed nobody cared to hear anymore. So I say let's give it a shot. Perhaps one song will catch their eye & they'll give it a try. Here's my list. I am going to assume that the tour will feature the same 4 members as the SYW Tour. I don't dare hope for anyone else for fear of being disappointed. And I'm not going to post the songs that I'm relatively sure will be in (I'm assuming Dreams, Tusk, Don't Stop, GYOW, Landslide & The Chain aren't going anywhere.) Also, I am not going to list many pre-BN songs, since I don't feel that I am familiar enough with those eras to suggest songs that would be done (and done well) currently by this incaration of the band. I hope other Ledgies will chime in on this material - Chili, Homer, etc. So, please post your ideas here & maybe, just maybe, we can have a teeny tiny influence on the setlist. Maybe not. But it can't hurt, right? Last edited by skcin; 01-14-2007 at 07:34 PM.. |

Anyway, here are my songs:
Green Manalishi (this is one bad ass tune, and I love the versions I've heard from the '75 tour) Monday Morning (replaces Second Hand News) World Turning (loved it on SYW tour, even with Stevie on Vocal) I Don't Wanna Know (they usually play practically the entire Rumours album, so why not?) The Ledge (although it might be too fast paced for them these days - keep the O2 close by) What Makes You Think You're the One (replaces IKINW) Storms (replaces Beautiful Child) Angel (although I have my doubts - not sure the magic can be captured again, she may half-ass it. And if she did, I'd be let down.) SOTM (although I think this would have to replace GDW - too similar - and I'm not sure if I'd want GDW dropped. Also, that's an awful lot of Tusk-era Stevie tunes in the set, esp. if Sara stays) Seven Wonders (Fun tune. What the hell. I'd like to hear something from TITN) Tango In the Night (this would rock hard) {I've always loved these SYW songs & think they'd be great live - pick two} Steal Your Heart Away Miranda Illume Thrown Down Smile At You If Chris were to do any shows (OK, I couldn't resist ) : (assuming that YMLF, Over My Head, SYLM would automatically be in...) Why Oh Daddy Think About Me Honey Hi Hold Me Little Lies Save Me Songbird (to close) As far as I'm concerned, they can drop/keep out: All SYW tunes that were done on the SYW tour (that tour was great, but it's over now, let's throw something different in) Don't Stop (yeah, I know, never gonna leave...) Sara (sorry, I was thrilled when I saw them do it in 2004, but looking/listening back, it was good but not great) Silver Springs (it's had it's magical moment, let's not run it into the ground) Stand Back (I love it, but I'd rather no solo tunes this tour) Eyes of the World Never Going Back Again Gypsy (unless they want to bust out with an acoustic version, ala' AHI 2000 - then, I'm all for it.) Big Love (if it's not the album version, I've heard it enough, thanks) And the only tune that I would honestly be upset over if they dropped? Go Your Own Way. I'm flexible with the rest. As much as I love most of the hits, if dropping Rhiannon or GDW means that Angel or SOTM make it in, then I say do it. If dropping I'm So Afraid means we get Tango? Buh-bye.

Hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I don't think for a second that we can influence the setlist, because I don't think John would be able to influence the setlist, as lovely as he is.
But I would like Angel, Storms, Monday Morning, and Miranda. |

I forgot Frozen Love. That's a must. I kind of agree with Ryan that John probably doesn't have a huge influence over the setlist. Stevie and Lindsey are the ones singing the songs so I think they would have the most say.

I feel you, Ryan. But I refuse to believe that the changes made to the second leg of the SYW came out of a band member's ass. The web had to have something to do with it. Sara, after years of saying it wouldn't be back? Come on. We know that I Know I'm Not Wrong came (at least partially) via suggestion of some Ledgies in AUS. It could happen. Really. I love you Cat. Those are my picks too. Quote:
Eh. They've already done WTWCT live. I'd rather hear an alternative from SYW. It is a good song, but..... And I completely forgot Spare Me a Little. I concur. Quote:
Also - Blue Letter rocks, but I'd rather have all Mac tunes, no covers. JMO. |
