Thanks for y'all's input.

It's been a while since I played a set and just trying to get some ideas.

In college I definitely had a couple incidents with drunk girls screaming requests. Never really minded and usually obliged right away if it was something I knew. Every now and then you get a request for something that is not in your play book or is definitely not a song that can be translated to solo acoustic...then they get irritating.

You will get Wagon Wheel as a request.

That's a great tune. Feels like it should be 20 years old.

Capo the 2nd fret and then its only G, D, Em, & C. The 1st time around is those four chords in that order, and then the second time the Em is left out & C is played twice to account for the Em being out left out

Friend of mine asked me to send her my setlist before we ended up starting a band together.


This is what I sent her:
quote:

"Play a Train Song" Todd Snider
"Marry Me" Cooley Solo Arrangement
"Go It Alone" Isbell
"Oh My Sweet Carolina" Ryan Adams
"Jacksonville Skyline" Whiskeytown
"Man In Me" Bob Dylan
"Turn The Page" Bob Seeger
"Cortez the Killer" Neil Young
"Into the Mystic" Van Morrison
"Tupelo Honey" VM
"Hurricane" American Aquarium
"My Sweet Annette" DBT
"One More Night in Brooklyn" Justin Townes Earle
"Atlantic City" The Boss
"Jolene" Ray LaMontange
"Trouble" Ray
"Pancho & Lefty" TVZ
"Dead Flowers" Rolling Stones
"Galway Girl" Steve Earle
"Awake My Soul" Mumford
"Murder in the City" Avetts
"Dixie Chicken" Little Feat
"Up on Cripple Creek" The Band
"Rebels" Tom Petty/DBT
"Lawyers, Guns, & Money" Zevon
"Zip City" DBT
And now, my ridiculous, but fun covers:
"Roses" Outkast
"Girls Just Want to Have Fun" Cyndi Lauper
"Oops I did it again" Britney Spears (as done by Richard Thompson)
"Little Red Corvette" Prince
"Purple Rain" Prince
"My Love" Justin Timberlake



I know probably about 100 more songs than that too, plus originals.


And now that JT's new album is out, that means more songs to learn!
