Make a Deep-Cuts Only Setlist

[WatchChain]

This is a fantasy set list assuming Christine is back and including the Top 40 songs that you've asked for. This proves difficult because Lindsey didn't have as many Top 40 hits with the band, so we'll have to pull more "deep cuts" from his material to give equal stage time. This leaves out some "deep cuts" from the girls that I want to hear in favor of minor hits like "Love in Store".....I am also limiting to the 24 slots that you indicated..... To completely shake up the set list, they should open with "Go Your Own Way", it's a solid hit that will get the casual crowd on their feet and open with some energy. I'm giving "Chain" and "Landslide" a rest for the first time in years.

all-hits list instead of all deep-cuts list? love it!

of course, if you are counting The Chain that was never a single, or Songbird, as a hit, then you would have to do the same with NGBA and Second Hand News. i guess checking amazon or itunes downloads would give you the best idea of what songs have become hits or have the most staying power over the years... but i love it that you used Walk A Thin Line instead - i don't need to repeat that hearing that would make me extremely happy!

I would love to hear Walk A Thin Line live, but what I really what (and don't hate me Elle) is for Stevie to sing the lead vocal. Ever since she sang that snippet of it during The Meldrum Tapes interview in 1986, I've wanted her to cover it. Sorry...

perish the thought!

that would ruin the song right there and cure me from ever even thinking of going to see FM live.

of course, they can do that for you in AUS, as long as i get Lindsey's version here in the US.

With Elle on that!!!!! OMG no no no

I know I'll get the rotten tomato for this setlist, but I think it *could* work. Hold Me has not been performed in 30 yrs, so to me it is a deep cut. And the covers..well they are just damn good songs. I don't even care for Sorcerer solo, but this was a toss up b/w Crying In The Night...which to unpopular opinion here, I think a few BN songs should get credit.

oh damn, and I didn't even include Thrown Down. If Chris were with them, than the set would change drastically....how can CM perform and we NOT hear "sweeeeet wunderful you". I also fancy a real hard Rn'R show with only 2ballads.

I think the point of this thread is not only to pick non top 40 hits but largely others that aren't major concert staples. So that's the direction I'm going here.

Here you go....

[whitewingdove]

I'm going to change the rules a little bit for myself here. I personally think a show without any of the big hits would be a complete and utter disaster, and I don't think I could think of 24 songs, so I'm just putting my idea of the perfect set list. (acustomed to me) Btw: In my dreams the perfect set list would include all member, including Chris)
