I wish I could've gotten Lift in there, but you have to keep the casuals entertained – couldn't find room for too many of the sing-alongs but it's an eclectic enough mix. Tried to make the last five songs relatively similar stylistically – that organic, choppy, but syrupy sound – but also the bangerzzzz. Most of it is about a good flow from one song to the other. Oh yeah, and Spooks is a 90 second thing so I won't count it as a song – it'd be good as a little prelude after the sombre numbers, then having Just come out of nowhere from it.

Considering they usually play 18 songs in the actual set, I wouldn't go home too disheartened with this.

I thought it was gonna be hard fleshing out a full 18 songs considering they've only released two albums, but I got there. The breakdown is 8 off Museum, 7 off Happiness and Surrounding Suburbs, 2 off the Conquer the Town, Easy as Cake EP and 1 off the really early, self-released Rolling on the Floor, Laughing Ourselves to Sleep EP.

I doubt they'd play any songs from those first two EPs ever again (maybe Sea Strangers considering it was a single) but it was fun to have them in there nonetheless.

That list was guarantee a fantastic concert. Needs more Street Spirit though :)

Love what you are doing at the end - would be a huge banging buildup, but then tempered by a beautiful finale. Either that or Reckoner would do that.

Jamie T reminds me so much of being about 13, 14 and getting right into music. Still into the lad, still holding onto the hope of him releasing that album that's been like... five years in the making.

Anyway, a good thing about JT, aside from sounding like London in 2007 like not much else, has really unique live versions of basically all his songs. So I've chucked in some links and it's definitely worth listening to if you're into him.

First three songs are faster numbers, building up to his self-dubbed dance number at four. Back in the Game is seemingly a sing-along but the acoustic instrumentation makes it easy to go into the similarly-paced Spider's Web. Then If You Got the Money, so a nice one-two-three to calm things down. I think the Man's Machine would go really, really well into (probably my favourite JT song) So Lonely Was the Ballad. Vampire Weekend do Horchata, Shots, all into Everlasting Arms and I'd see that as something similar.

Last few are just fast numbers. Ike and Tina live is a killer. End with the heaviest, fastest number he has. I've liked the idea of him closing a pretty sweaty set with something introspective, so Jilly Armeen, that acoustic one, would do that nicely. Encore is a mix but the last two are ones for jumping around.

"She's a fat bitch but I'd still give 'er..... one..."

This thing would kill you. Eighteen songs with an average of about five minutes a song, surely. I would have it pretty much heave from All My Friends onward. Movement goes into Someone Great purely for instrumentation reasons (and because they're both well known for the casuals). Then North American Scum coming out the end of an improv'd finish to Someone Great... man.

The encore starts with where LCD started. It'd be an okay set closer, but Scum is too good to ignore. Meanwhile, Big Ideas' massive climax and the feedback at the end would go nicely into New York I Love You, which is the perfect ender for them.

This would be amazing. I don't think he's ever performed "Why I Love You" live (the closing track on the standard version of WTT) but it's basically a solo Jay track anyway so it'd be cool. Plus this is the Dream Live Set Game, not the Predicted Live Set Game :)

Small venue, late night.

Pretty standard set formula here. Big opening, chilling out a bit in the middle before a big finish. Then a huge encore.

Very heavy on "All Eyez On Me" but I consider that one of the best hip hop albums of all time. If only it had the single version of California Love instead of the shitty 6 minute 'remix' then it could be the best. Tracks 16 & 17 are hard-hitting, the rest of it is basically a mixture of fast and slow pace. I feel like it's fitting to end the main set with Dear Mama and then the encore with Life Goes On – poignant considering some still maintain that Pac never died

Great work - agree with #10 down. Though All My Friends is my fave, so wouldn't mind that in the encore. But that is just a super super set :)

Indeed :) Bangin' !
 
I'll do a couple of festival sets for some of my favourite bands, I'll start with Two Door Cinema Club:

Intro
Cigarette's In The Theatre
Sleep Alone
(I think Cigarette's In The Theatre is how TDCC start most of their sets anyway, the intro riff is very engaging. Sleep Alone is the best song off the Beacon album IMO, these 2 will get the audience engaged in the set early on)

Solid/Keep Audience Invested
This Is The Life
Something Good Can Work
Come Back Home
Do You Want It All
(All from Tourist History Album, it has the better songs of the two and I'd imagine this group of 4 songs after the intro will keep the audience invested for the entire set)

Mid-Set
The World Is Watching
Wake Up
Handshake
(Just playing their songs, not as solid as their first 6 but hey, they're musicians that want to play all of their music)

Mid-Set 2/Building Back Up
Next Year
You're Not Stubborn
Settle
(Start to build the set back up for a climax with Next Year and You're Not Stubborn. Settle tapers off and settle's down, pardon the pun, towards the end so TDCC can talk to the audience and introduce their new single to the crowd…)

New Song/Close 1
Changing of the Seasons
Eat That Up, It's Good For You
Undercover Martyn
(Introduction of new single in Changing of the Seasons. Eat That Up is a very good lively song to build up to 'close'. Undercover Martyn to send the audience batshit crazy and screaming for an encore)

Encore
I Can Talk
Sun
What You Know
(I think I remember one of the Foo Fighters concerts I went to closed/encored with Best of You, Big Me then Everlong. I like how they went from a "big" song in Best of You down to a calm "smaller" song in Big Me then ended the concert hard with Everlong so I tried to emulate that to an extent. I Can Talk is the perfect song to begin an encore. Start with the "ah oh, ah ah oh's" and get the crowd chanting along before bringing in the rest of the band, would be awesome. Sun would be used as the come down song to an extent, still a very catchy song that would keep the audience up and engaged but the instruments behind the vocals keep the song a little settled. OK, first off, What You Know is my favourite TDCC song and two, the two times I've seen them they've closed with it. There's no other song I'd consider closing with. Live, they do a vocal intro to the song (with help from the crowd of course) and then hit you almost out of nowhere with the opening riff. Brilliant live, highly recommend seeing these guys when you next get the chance)


Breakdown
Tourist History - 10
Beacon - 7
Changing of the Seasons EP - 1

As I mentioned, I think Tourist History is the better of the albums so I ended up putting all songs from the album on the set-list. Beacon has some good songs no doubt and didn't have an issue putting any of those songs in but there's a reason that 5/6 opening songs and 4/6 closing songs are from Tourist History IMO. Changing of the Seasons will need some time I think. Feel free to agree or disagree with this. I'll look at doing The Wombats at some point today if I can be stuffed.

The fade to black after Last Nite, then the percussion at the beginning of Hard To Explain foo-eee that would be awesome, Hard To Explain is basically my fav song ever. Under Cover of Darkness would be a great ending track 'So long my friend' but Is This It is first song first album so that's kinda cute.

Probably broken every single rule here and the odds of Ghostface Killah, Cee Lo, and Damon Albarn just hanging around are unlikely, but those 3 just popping on stage in quick succession would be the best encore possible.

Agreed. Tourist History is a tremendous album. Just so many great tracks one after the other after the other. Good set :)
