I know that we're always looking for new material to add to our setlist. I'm always out checking other bands to see what they're playing and grab a few of those songs for myself (unethical?). Usually, I'll see a band play one song that people haven't thought of for years and the crowd goes wild over it! You know, those songs that make you go "Man.. I used to LOVE listening to this song!"

Well, THOSE are the songs that we want to be playing. It gives people a "good all over" feeling and the crowd loves you for it.

Anyhow, I am posting all of the songs that make up our our setlists to give others that same opportunity. Perhaps you'll see a song that you never thought of trying and it will go over great for you. I hope you guys can do the same so I can get more ideas as well!

These songs are listed in no particular order, but we try to play the "party songs" toward the middle/end of the show.

And no, I didn't type all of these... I copied and pasted from our website.

Great idea! I'm always trying to remember cool tunes that I've seen bands do and inevitably I forget them before I jot them down. Here's our list...We've got a female vocalist that sings about 80% of these, while the bass player and I (guitar) split up the rest. We tend to play what we like, not necessarily the "classics", but we've got enough tunes people know to keep everyone happy.

Sarah Yellin' - 3 Doors Down
Poem - Taproot
Who Invited You - The Donnas
Bring Me To Life - Evanescence
What's Going On - 4 Non-Blondes
Girls not grey - AFI
If It Makes You Happy - Sheryl Crow
Seether - Veruca Salt
My Own Worst Enemy - Lit
Just A Girl - No Doubt
If You Could Only See - Tonic
Come To My Window - Etheridge
Deny - Default
Running Away - Hoobastank
How You Remind Me - Nickelback
Bittersweet - Fuel
Lump - PUSA
Cheap Honesty - Skunk Anansie
Damaged - Sass Jordan
Basket Case - Green Day
You Oughta Know - Alanis
Take it Off - The Donnas
3 Small Words - JATPC
Sk8er Boi - Avril Lavigne
Spiderman - Ramones
Hate to Say I Told You So - Hives

Hmmmm... what was the tipoff? The songs? My witless ramblings? I am the one who picks most of the songs, so I'm really curious.

Actually, the wife and I are from central PA (grew up around, and attended, Penn State) and just moved to DE 3 years ago, but still "close" to home.
