The flow of a setlist

What about grouping songs by artists? Been thinking of doing this, like our 3 Stevie Wonders followed by our 3 Michael Jacksons...anyone doing it that way?

we have a few genres grouped together , so we have some punk stuff , modernish rock , clasic rock , dance , a couple of anthem styles , and some slower ones , we try to revolve them a bit and have 5 or 6 that can be used in each 'genre' , all the while trying hard not to play summer of 69 !

Yes, I've come across this, with a series of 'Stones' numbers, or a suite of 'Johnny Hallyday' hits strung together. It can work very well. In the group I presently play with, though, we deliberately keep the 'Radiohead' stuff we do spread out over the set, so I'd say that it all depends..!

We used to run several Michael Jackson songs together. Worked well. . . we don't seem to doing that so much these days, though.
