Nightmare Set List

This is just for FUN... but I see a lot of posts on here about "dream set lists." So I thought, what would my "nightmare" set list look like? I thought about it and put one together. Some of these songs I actually wouldn't mind hearing again (Help Help is so much better live), I just tried to pick out the songs I am least into, or lowest quality, musically/noisy, to me (i.e. Habit), or songs that we've all heard a million times, or string together to make a boring few songs in a row. I'm sure someone will like this set list, and that's cool. It's just MY nightmare set list that I could think of on a whim. Notice it is short, ha!

So, what would YOUR nightmare set list look like?

Main set:
gonna see my friends, bleed for me, unthought known, army reserve, dissident, help help, pilate, elderly woman, even flow, sleight of hand, gone, you are, habit, supersonic, the fixer

Encore 1
the end with string quartet, lukin with string quartet, black, last kiss, better man, alive

Encore 2
"And now we're gonna bring out some old friends to finish out our last encore... so for all 3 songs, please say hello to Sleater Kinney!"
hunger strike, leavin' here, rockin' in the free world all with Sleater Kinney

:D

    I know you are joking around but Black, Alive, Elderly Woman, and Betterman? They make the show and get the crowd into it... I hope they continue with these tunes for every show I go too.

    And that 2nd encore part is no joke. I have had nightmares of being strapped into a chair and listening to Fortunate Son, Hunger Strike and RITFW with S/K. :lol:

    I couldnt really get to a full set - some of these I threw in just to try to get it around that 26-27 song mark. I also tried not to pick many songs that are never played... it was hard to do, but here's my 5 minute shot at it:

    main set: supersonic,get right,nothing as it seems,even flow,unemployable,elderly woman,i am mine,daughter,off he goes,wishlist,WMA,sleight of hand,jeremy,black,comatose

    enc 1: no more,bee girl,inside job,sleight of hand,betterman,

    enc 2: the end,last kiss,speed of sound,crazy mary,alive

    Thank you! :) I should say, these songs are all ones that I would happily switch out for another song that I absolutely LOVE rather than don't like or think is mediocre. It's just a hypothetical, it's not like anyone gets a choice which songs get played. :)

    I have never heard some of these live (Sleight of Hand, Pilate) and others like Help Help I only heard once, and so I must admit, if I were to be at a show where they played some of these... I WOULD be kind of excited to hear them. The sing alongs/fan favorites, I'm OK with those being played. There are just SO many songs I'd rather hear than Even Flow AGAIN, even though it is fun and rocking and has a big Mike solo in it. Those shows last year where they didn't play Alive or Even Flow--wow, how exciting that must have been to get something fresh in the #8-10 position where E-Flow always pops up.

    Army Reserve, Dissident, Gone etc... just bland boring songs in my opinion. Set killers. Buzzkills. We all know that with each new album, it gets played while the album before it gets almost ignored... happens every tour. I'd love to hear any other Avocado song over Army Reserve or Gone, and these days they seem to play maybe one or two songs from that album per show. I would just love to hear one of the OTHER songs. That's all.

    I do sometimes like Sleight of Hand, and I would be excited to hear it live. I've never heard it and know it's rare. It's just slow and kinda mumbly and muddy.

    You Are, been there done that. Heard it many times on Riot Act, and it's an OK song, and live it's kind of cool with the old lights. Habit, noisy, but still kinda like it. Supersonic is dumb.

    Ha ha, see I would take at least half of those songs in a "good" set... never heard a whole bunch of those. But I can see why people don't like a lot of those songs, and I can see why people like a lot of the songs I picked.
    I'd love to hear WMA, Not for You, All Night, Lip, and Gremmie. Only one of those I've heard before is Not For You, and it's just kind of a flashback-favorite.

    Agree or disagree, it's a hilarious thought. If it came true, would your nightmare setlist stop you from ever seeing them again? Is it so much of a nightmare that EVERY show you see will have the exact setlist? Where's the "suicide" emoticon? :lol:

    Main Set: Trouble, Dead Man Walking, All The Way, Picture In A Frame, Off He Goes, Hard To Imagine, Gone, Inside Job, Low Light, Thumbing my way, last kiss, betterman, Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town

    Followed by: Wishlist, Dissident, Save You, Crazy Mary, Immortality, Nothing As it Seems, I Believe In Miracles, All Or None, Fatal, Down, Speed of Sound

    Encore: Anything by Uncle Bruce, Uncle Neil, Uncle Pete or Uncle Tom, I'm Open, Man Of The Hour, No More, The End, Yellowledbetter with Star Spangled Banner

    Encore 2: Ambulance sirens.
