EmmettC Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 We start with a River Deep, Misirlou, Wipeout medley usually gets them going, that's after the first dance, whic is often rubbish, but tomorrow it's It Must Be Love, which will be fun.

mr zed Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Our set opener has changed over time but currently: 1st set - Vegas Two Times - Stereophonics 2nd set - 21st Century Breakdown - Green Day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmonkey Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Start American Idiot. Wakes em up. Finish Mr Brightside - usually 100% audience up by then. Encore usually ends with Fight for the right. Cue instant need for a laydown and some strepsils as I am the singer too...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gapiro Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Well, got a new 80's project started, we're thinking that We Built This City might be a good starter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulgm1 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 This question has caused lots of 'active debating' in the pub band I play in. At the moment it's Jailbird - Primal Scream with a longish intro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 We usually begin with Tush by ZZ Top. Gives the singer a chance to go out front and check the balance during the guitar solo(s). Occasionally its Changing Man by Paul Weller. The Second set usually begins with Dakota by Stereophonics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panamonte Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Miss Judy's Farm - Faces. We have keys but it works fine without. Tasty guitar intro then it slams in. Nice breakdown then it gets very frenetic at the end. A good statement of intent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebassman Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 We normally start with Changing Man-Paul Weller, segged into Pump it Up-Elvis Costello. Gives me a nice warm up. cheers thebassman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
