We only play 25 minutes.

 

We tried to start the first song but the guitarist forgot to tune, so we waited a bit then he got done and then a mic wasn't on and so we finally got it to work and then the drummer had to pee and so we waited and then he got done and then we tried to figure out a good song to play and when we finally decided we played mustang sally and then jumpin jack flash. It was sweet.

Opener: "I Get Evil" by Albert King ... it layers in nicely. Gear was doing sound + playing bass, and that long intro gives him time to dial the balance in and take a walk to hear the mix out front.

 

Closer - Joe Bonamassa medley.

Starter: Harder to Breathe, Roll with the Changes, or a Walkin on the Sun/Evil Ways medley

 

Starter for third (last) set: Devil went down to Georgia

 

End: Enter Sandman, and She Fu*&$ing Hates Me if an encore is desired/allowed.

Openers:

Tush

Stealin'

Easy Living

 

TWO Uriah Heep songs? This is the 21st century!

 

My old band used to open our 1st set with Stealin, and we did the organ intro with vocal harmonies. People didn't know what to make of us.

Because the owner wanted us to go from 10:30 to 2 (instead of our usual 9:30 - 2) we went with a 90 minute set and a 1:45 set.

Opener: Old Apartment

Closer : Want you to Want Me (Girl singer - Lindsey Lohan style)

 

2nd Set:

Every Time I Roll the Dice (Delbert McCLinton)

You Oughta Know

 

Encore: Soul Man
