$30: make a set list

[Stgeurin]

So I took the general feel from peoples top 10/20/50 lists on the boards recently and made 5 categories. Make your own set list for $30 If you want six $5 that’s fine. Thirty $1 songs that’s fine. Make your set. I just took the general feel from the board rankings, it’s not perfect, If you see a staple missing feel free to insert it into your set at its fair price. (Be fair). There may be some minor disagreements on a songs pricing, it’s not an exact science. Tried to stick to songs that have been played in more recent history simply because it gets hard otherwise to price it with the rarity/liberation factor mixed in.

Tried to make it a somewhat realistic setlist length.

[stlbluespower]

just eyeing the lists, I could construct a twenty song set consisting of ten each of $2 and $1 songs and would find it pretty enjoyable. Would others enjoy it? Ha, probably not.

Biggest bargain I see is WYA for $2.

[stlbluespower]

most overpriced, with current lineup, is Ants.

[Speilmen230]

$50 would be ideal imo.

[Stgeurin]

I’m happy to tinker with it. I agree looking back WYA and Beach Ball at $2 feel like steals. I’m also happy to play with $40 or $50 sets to make it more realistic. I just liked the idea of a slight crunch to have to make some tough choices. Like some have said, $30 gives you more of a festival length.

[kmb40oz]

One Sweet World $2
Sweet Up & Down $2
Granny $2
What You Are $2
Song The Jane Likes $2
Why I Am $1
Seek Up $4
Rooftop $1
Stay or Leave $1
You Might Die Trying $2
Stay $2
_____________
Warehouse $4
The Last Stop $5

[dmbnut21]

I heard that this is exactly what Dave does to make setlists. He rolls a couple of D&D dices and whatever those numbers add up to is how many points he has to work with.

[Fpuonpko]

I looked up the longest known versions of each of the songs I picked. Just what I am feeling as of today, not necessarily my favorites or anything as it always is changing

#41 (5) 32:03
Beach Ball (2) 6:21
She (1) 5:33
Fool To Think (2) 6:22
What You Are (2) 11:41
Why I Am (1) 4:37
Big Eyed Fish (3) 7:03
Grey Street (4) 8:25
--------------------------
Halloween (5) 12:07
The Last Stop (5) 18:31

This is like an 1hr 50 min show.

Honestly, this would be a pretty fun show if they did something focused on quality over quantity. I probably would rather have a 10 song show that was still almost the length of a "regular" show over 20 songs with 10 "duds" or "lower tier"

I made mine 16 songs but it basically took me out of using any $5s.

I was thinking $45 for an 18 song set might be ideal. 18 is pretty standard and $45 leaves an average of $2.50 per song so still some tough decisions but not quite the crunch we had here. The crunch was fun to play through - but $45/18 is where I'd be inclined to go next. Either way - great job putting this together!
