Make your own Rolling Stones setlist


GivenToFly

Recommended Posts

People are talking about setlists in the Rolling Stones thread, so I thought I'd make this into a game. There are rules:

  • A total of 20 songs (including encore)
  • 2 or 3 song encore
  • 2 of the songs are Keith's: one ballad and one upbeat; they're in the middle of the setlist
  • staples: Sympathy, Gimme Shelter, Midnight Rambler, You Can't Always..., Brown Sugar, Tumbling Dice, It's Only Rock N Roll, Miss You, Start Me Up, Satisfaction, Paint It Black, JJF, Honky Tonk Women - at least 9 of these songs have to be played; the main set and the encore both end with one of these songs
  • options: after picking the live staples and Keith's songs fill up the rest of the slots with options (songs that are not 'staples' and are sung by Mick)
  • options must include at least one pre-Banquet song and at least one post-Some Girls song

Should be interesting....

19. You Can't Always Get What You Want

20. Satisfaction

The one rule I don't really agree with is 4-6 ballads, unless we really generalize ballads to mean any slow-ish song. First time I saw them the only ballad they did was You Can't Always Get What You Want, second time they did Wild Horses and You Can't Always Get What You Want, most recently they did Angie, You Got The Silver, and You Can't Always Get What You want. I honestly can't think of the last Stones setlist I saw that had 4+ ballads on it.

The other rule I suggest adding as they followed it the last few tours (At least up until 50 & Counting, and even then at a few gigs) is add a cover.

I also had to include Wild Horses as a staple. Too much cack there (It's Only R N' Roll; Start Me Up) to do otherwise.

Notes (yeah, I know, I'm rambling):

They shouldn't be allowed to play Sympathy anymore. I love the song to death, but they just cannot cut it anymore. Brown Sugar, Jumpin Jack Flash, Gimme Shelter are all still very good live. Keith cannot play the Sympathy solo anymore and the song is in general just too bloated from the original. I think its one staple they should retire completely at this point.

The Keith songs were chosen purely because I've heard Happy, You Got The Silver and Little T&A live already. And because its criminal Coming Down Again has never been played live. If they have to play 2 Keith songs it makes no sense this has never gotten an airing.

Songs also on the shortlist that didn't make it (but should be substituted nightly with the other 9 nonstaples:

Street Fighting Man

Let's Spend The Night Together

She Said Yeah

As Tears Go By

Tell Me

Rip This Joint

Till The Next Goodbye
