Creating the Worst Possible Setlist

[blinker12]

Ha! I would actually pay good money to see this show simply because it would be so different from the same old, same old!

Love the initial set list. I would replace “Oh Diane” with “Come” - the worst Lindsey song in the Mac catalog and a fittingly dreary bookend to “WISYA.”

Thank you! Come IS the worst Lindsey song, by far.

Oh, yeah! I forgot about that. And Silver Girl.

Stevie has so many songs that drone on, it's easy to forget.

We need ALL the verses. Don’t we? I mean, you eliminate a verse and it’s a whole chapter from her life. Her terribly exciting, unique life.

$he's not going to be happy, if you take out one of her verses about being in the Army.

Oh yes, I would definitely add The Second Time to my nightmare list… under the Pity/Whiny category.

It’s amazing how one persons ‘nightmare’ setlist inclusions can be another persons dream.
Personally I’d love to have had a set that included….
Welcome to the Room…Sara
Bermuda Triangle (sung by Stevie)
What Makes You Think You’re the One? (Lindsey playing Kleenex boxes)
Mystified….any version (this could have been a killer inclusion with Lindsey’s solo)
When I See You Again (could have made a lovely alternative closer)
Oh Diane (acoustic…as a much needed alternative to Big Love/NGBA)
Paper Doll
Come

My nightmare set would include….
Dreams (yawn)
Big Love….acoustic (yawn)
Never Going Back Again….snails pace version (yawn)
Raspberry Beret (Stevie tribute to Prince)
Learning to Fly (Stevie tribute to Tom Petty)
Teen Beat
These Strange Times
Songbird (Stevie tribute to Christine with Stevie vocals/piano)

This is a difficult thread for me for 2 reasons. Any of these songs on anyone's list would mean these 5 are back performing on stage. I would do anything to have Chris back so she can play on any of my least favorite Mac songs and I would be in awe. Lastly is most of everyone's least favorites are mostly hidden songs the band would never even think about performing in front of an audience. For that reason alone it would be so interesting that I would be at the edge of my seat. After all the same songs they perform live again and again, the worst setlist would be awesome just for the variety. It would be so interesting to hear any of those least favorites performed live. Yes, I would love to hear Welcome To The Room Sara, and Whatsamata baby live instead of Dreams and Rhiannon for the millionth time.
