On Thursday night, I played an "opening" set of 7 songs, solo and acoustic, before the band that I do sound for came on. This was the first time I've ever played anything more than one song by myself in front of anyone other than a few friends (so if you're wondering why I didn't mention it, that's why). I did OK, for my first time, I guess. I totally screwed up on the first song and like the gibson ad says "No distortion to cover your ass" is true! I improved each one, getting a bit more comfortable with each song. I didn't do so bad, because they're going to let me do it again. So now I have to figure at least 3 new songs to do. I think I have an idea.
Here's the ones I did:
Fell in Love With A Girl –The White Stripes
…baby one more time –Britney Spears
How to Fight Loneliness - Wilco
Black – Pearl Jam
Sitting, Waiting, Wishing – Jack Johnson
Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town – Pearl Jam
It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) – R.E.M.
If anyone has any suggestions, post them here.

That is some varied setlist, kudos if you can pull it off. Add some audio to your site so we can here it.
Way to go!
I would add;
a. Clapton's - Wonderful Tonight
b. Monkee's - Last Train to Clarksville.
c. 1910 Fruitgum Co. - Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, I Got Love in My Tummy...Or was it the "Ohio Express?"
Rock On~
