Default Re: EDF: Evaluate my potential band\'s setlist

All,

I know it's a long list, but it's not meant to be played in one night, or one continous set. We just want a deep list of options in case we end up doing a four hour party or something - with multiple breaks.

Here's the adjustments I'm think of making:

Down By The River is pretty much out.
Fortunate Son is likely in.
Thin Lizzy may find it's way in - either Cowboy Song, Rosalie, or The Boys Are Back in Town
Some one suggested old school AC/DC. I like it, but I've heard too many bar bands sound silly trying to cover You Shook Me All Night Long. We'd definately have to go deeper - probably Whole Lotta Rosie or Love Hungry Man. Those tend to work better at not sounding like a cheap imitation.

Keep the suggestions coming. I'm especially found of taking songs that weren't rock songs and making them into rock songs - ala our cover of I Ran. We're also considering doing this with Burning Down The House (Talking Heads).
