Title: *WE* get to write PB\'s Pearl Street SETLIST!!!
Post by: davepeck on May 01, 2003, 08:50:12 am
let\'s get everyone participating in this! this is a really good place for interaction on this subject too, so let\'s get moving!

from tim:

Quote
The subject says all. Folks, we want you to make up our Pearl St. setlist, and no holds barred. PB might play 1 set or 2 so draw up both scenarios if you could. Give the final setlist to me the DAY BEFORE the show. Good Luck Folks and have fun. peace


that gives us 6 working days until we have to have it in.

now, i know a lot of you get carried away with your dream setlists, but let\'s try to keep this in the realm of possibility.. give this a long, educated thought, and try to stay away from impossible segues, etc.. think about rarities, once-played\'s, etc, but also think about energy levels and timing...

try NOT to post entire setlists (as it\'ll make it harder for us all to agree on the final version), but instead suggest a song or 2, placement, and/or segues... i think we\'ll be able to make the most out of this thing if we do it that way.

so let\'s have some fun and get this thing rollin\'!

:disco:

a couple ideas i had while brainstorming:

- open the show with a jam > something. i feel the band is much stronger when they warm up with a jam and build it up and morph it into their first tune. i think this will be a good way to set the pace for the night. possibly jam > Puppetry.

- Buquebus > 2001 > Buquebus. thought this would be a neat segue. bring in 2001 during ron\'s bass bridge in the middle, then back into Buquebus at the end of 2001. it could definitely work.

Tim, its all good as long as you bust out some Prom 97\' again, and at least tease me with some inca roads.

Also, after talking about the Alternative diesel experiment Christine wants Hunger Strike. You guys got to play it some more. Ron IS Chris Cornell. :)

Here\'s My 1/50th of $1 on the matter.

"Question Mark And The Mind" is my personal favorite, and it\'s always nice to hear.

"Peace Frog" is the cover that has always eluded me that I\'d like to hear.  It\'s always on the setlist for a show that I was "supposed to" go to but missed for some reason.

I really don\'t know what to suggest for a segue.  I\'ll just suggest "something we would never expect" if there is such a thing for those who have seen literally hundreds of shows.

And seeing a "first time played" is always cool if the band has anything ready to debut (original or cover).

And when in doubt, we could always harass them about "Episode Three" some more.

These are just a few brief suggestions.  I\'m honestly not too crazy about the idea of creating the entire setlist.  It doesn\'t seem to me like the guys will play at their best if they\'re not more or less winging it like they seem to do every other night.  Maybe we could just gather suggestions rather than create a definite list and let the band work from there.  Just a few thoughts (not edible ones, though).

Post by: davepeck on May 01, 2003, 04:26:59 pm
good points, drew!

and i hadn\'t even thought about a \'first time played\'... the band has a lot of new material which they haven\'t played yet, and it\'d be really nice to get one in there... good call.

:bounce2:

I would like to hear some new stuff before they go back on tour again. It seems like its been a while. Has there even been a new song debuted since cosmic spaceway rhyme at toad\'s in march last year? i cant think of any.

And as for picking the setlist, i would rather have no part in it and have no idea whats going on, because i would much rather be surprised at my first show back. If i had to pick i would choose a scarlet>fire cover, but for pb material i would rather be surprised. I think they should have done this for a show where they were going to play 2 sets and only have the fans pick for only one of the sets.

I\'d be really happy as always to see a long epic number in the second set like rufus or tribal, although tribal is a first set great opener.  sir psycho sexy would be a nasty choice to throw in the middle of a TFA.  alex

I want an epic puppetry jam.  Phatty Boom is always a good set 2 opener as everyone\'s usually baked.  Sweet Leaf encore.

:holyshit:

you know what, chris? this is a really good point, and you sparked me to do some research... it\'s actually kind of disturbing.. check this out -

- in one month in 2001 (10/26 - 11/25), PB debuted 5 new original songs (The Late And Great, Score, Escher\'s Etchings, Dig, TGBFBITS).

- in the 17+ months since then, PB has debuted only 2 (3 if you count the once-played \'Beer Jubilee\') new original songs (Wild Pack Of Asscracks, Cosmic Spaceway Rhyme)!

- PB has not debuted a new original song in the last 13+ months!

:banghead:

chris, i\'m with you. screw the setlist. give us new material to write setlists with, then we\'ll write a setlist! ;)

let\'s hope for some new PB sometime soon!

Stephengencs,

I\'d be shocked to hear buffalo soldier. The band has never done marley, and I remember tim saying at a solo acoustic show when someone called for redemtion song "whos that by? Oh, I don\'t know any Bob Marley at all."

It\'d be cool, but alas unlikely.

Post by: Stephengencs on May 02, 2003, 04:30:58 pm
I like this idea of creating a setlist.....
And I think that a Phaddy Boom>Buffalo Soldier> Phaddy Boom would be sick...

And the fact that they are asking for something like this beforehand makes me think that when they select a list, and there are songs they dont know on it, it will give them time to work on them for the show.....

Post by: Todd on May 02, 2003, 06:38:35 pm
Great picks Steve, but we don\'t have \'till 5 in the morning unfortunately. Also FFT might make Lisa sick (don\'t wanna see that!). The 2 setter might work for Tobbaco Road though

2attraction to shady ditty>pupperty,eschers etchings,see the light,phaddy boom batty>rufus>phaddy boom batty>lit

Post by: Drew_Kingsley on May 07, 2003, 08:40:33 am
Todays\' the day we\'re supposed to be creating a final list.  Here are some things we kind of agree on:

Jam > Puppetry
Merge
Grand Scheme > something > Grand Scheme
WPOA
Escher\'s Etchings
A first time played (if there\'s one ready)
Drunk Monk Bar
Now the challenge is coming to some kind of agreement on the setlist.  I\'m officially removing myself from the discussion starting.... NOW!  Fight amongst yourselves.
Title: *WE* get to write PB\'s Pearl Street SETLIST!!!
Post by: davepeck on May 07, 2003, 09:30:02 am
ok, here:

I: jam > New Song 1, Spunk, New Song 2 > New Song 3 > New Song 2, New Song 4 > Son Of Simpleton (1:20)

II: jam > Puppetry, The Grand Scheme Of Things > Drum Solo > Merge > Drunk Monk Bar > Escher\'s Etchings > Rufus (1:40)

E: The Grand Scheme Of Things (end) > Wild Pack Of Asscracks

new songs + no covers + 2 sets = GREAT show!

Set 2:  What the Funk>Cut Me Some Slack, Tribal>Sir Psycho Sexy>Tribal>Garcian, Gladys Pimp>Rufus>Echidna\'s Arf (of You)

Here is my take on a setlist. I haven\'t seen the boys in awhile (school/work conflicted with all the shows in Boston). Hopefully they make it here soon for the summer months.

Here is a setlist I\'d like to hear...

I:
Guitar solo>drum solo>Hard Luck Harry*, The Vermont Song, Rufus >Phaddy Boom Baddy>Rufus, Taboo or Not Taboot

II:
2001%, Beef Barley, No Glove No Love, LDZ, Mooboo\'s Voodoo (Episode 2), Superfly Phaddy Fat >The Chase

E:  Good Times Bad Times

*Good Times Bad Times tease
& Simpsons Theme Teases
% YEM Tease
....

how is that honestly? Rate it. What could we change or make better?

Post by: Drew_Kingsley on May 21, 2003, 08:47:35 am
Well the worst part is that the show where we got to pick the setlist was two weeks ago, but failing that...

The only problem I see is that if Rufus > Phaddy > Rufus is in the first set, I don\'t think the second set could keep up the energy, even with Mooboo, Superfly > The fuckin\' Chase to close it out.
