I see all sorts of kvetchin' bout 'new country artists" doin' "bad music". So lets see what people are really playing. No cheatin' now , If you personally didn't want the song in the set, mark it ; out voted. And less picking apart the other lists, [This message was edited by David L.

Here's our last set list (not neccessarily in this order). All songs are Kevin's originals except where marked with (*). I don't know how to classify Kevin's music. Maybe "Texas Music" meets 60's/70's honky-tonk...I dunno, you call it. I just have fun playin' it for our fans. 1. Senorita Mas Fina Keep on pickin'! Hey Earnest! I just saw your post...(tacet).

The band I'm working for has the same set list as Eric's. There may be three songs on his list that we don't do, but that's just about the same set I did last week. |

I'd post it, but you wouldn't recognize any of the songs because they are all original. I actually like all of our songs. We've been concentrating on Nancy's tunes for an upcoming show, and we trotted them out for the first time last weekend. Newest on the list are: "Circle of Life" (Nancy) - I play some Indian tabla & drone on the Handsonic ------------------ |

Ok brother Cohen, I will phrase it for the literally literary. What is or was the content of your most recent set list for your most recent performance in a public venue. On the other hand I find historical interest in knowing the "last sets", or nearly last, played by : [This message was edited by David L. Donald on 04 November 2003 at 03:26 PM.] |

Ok the most recent country set list 1st set, 2nd set. Alternates There were several that were intended to be done with PSG, but they got changed to bass when they got called. Also I proposed around 100 tunes, both covers and originals, and the front man never bothered to learn one. So that's history. But I do like the set list. [This message was edited by David L.

I want to play in Jim Cohen's band. The last gig I played, about two weeks ago, wasn't country and I didn't play steel. It was an open-air farmer's market with a mixed crowd, and it was my jam trio, which features clarinet doubling recorders, myself on gamba and clawhammer, um, banjo, and my son on tablas and bodhran. We used the following set list: La Rotta Which went down surprisingly well. I offer this (genuine!) set list for laughs because, now I think about it, it's almost ridiculously eclectic; four 14th century tunes, two Celtic, three jazz standards, one Japanese, one Bach, one blues, and of course a Beatles tune . We describe ourselves as either "free-form worldbeat" or "medieval funk." |

Wow Pete that is a great country set list. IMHO. It covers so much of what, for me, is country history. Of course there are a few things from any period missing, but in general a great set. I would love to hear this band. Musta been a fun night. So far I find you're in the lead for country sets. Herb you're up there too! [This message was edited by David L.
