What would you add to this set?

[redbandit599]

Hi all

I'm in 3 bands currently, all in various states of disrepair - newest one is shaping up nicely though, 4 piece one guitarist (very good - and not one of 'those' guitarists), drummer (good and improving all the time), singer (male - very strong) - bassist gets by and hasn't been found out yet... All of us have done the 'lots of gigs' thing and so this is to do one or two pub gigs a month - but do them well.

Want to give the punters a good night and get them involved.

We are consciously picking quite a bit of current stuff and also trying to avoid the 'classic rock /90's Indy standards' that seems to dominate, though there is a few of these in the list. We sound rocky and give most stuff a bit of go.

So, here's the set so far - there's a few old standards in there, so here's the question. What would [u]you[/u] add in? Need about another 7 songs really.

Please take it as read that I appreciate any input and ideas - so have a big thank you in advance, rather than lots of little notes later

[spectoremg]

This is gonna be good.

[MoonBassAlpha]

Mustang Sally?

[FinnDave]

I must be getting old, I don't recognise a single song in that list!

[leschirons]

Ramones.... Wonderful world. Lots of fun, well known song, crowd singalong big finish or encore.

[Thunderbird]

7 Nation army would fit in well to that kind of set list imo

[Dad3353]

London Calling (The Clash...)..?

[mikel]

Brown Eyed Girl. Cant go wrong with that. Oh, and Agadoo, marvelous song.

[fretmeister]

Stevie Salas - Tell your story walking.
The Commadores - Brick House.

[redbandit599]

Been turning a few gigs down so far as need that full set polished - will let you know!

[Geek99]

A stomping disco number, definitely

[redbandit599]

Well, I'm 49 you know...

[gjones]

Rocks by Primal scream?

[PawelG]

Something from Blues Brothers?

[Hobbayne]

I Predict A Riot?

[Woodinblack]

Well, goes without saying, Sex on fire.

But then maybe 'Need to be your only' - The strypes.?

[bazzbass]

Violent Femmes - Blister in the Sun

never fails to pack the dancefloor.

[/quote]Haha your kids must be around the same age as mine.

It's already a set I'd go to see.

Run. Snow Patrol
Bang Bang Dirty Pretty Things
Monster The Automatic

[dmccombe7]

Know some of them and based on that i would say this is already a good set list.
Was surprised to see Rag & Bone Man in there with Human. That will be a fantastic song to play let alone hear at a gig.

And i'm 57 so never too old to rock with young modern bands

Dave

[BassBunny]

That's a cracking set list. A good few of those we do. Oh and I'm 68 so NEVER too old to play some new/fresh material.
How about:
Don't you Worry Child - Swedish House Mafia
I'm a Believer - Smash Mouth version
Cake By The Ocean - DNCE
Stitches - Shaun Mendes
