ideal set list...

[veela]

okay, so tour time is coming around again and we have all had enough time to get familiar with the new album. SO -- if you could pick the IDEAL tori set list for this tour, what would it be? she played around 19-20 songs per show on the last tour but let's be (somewhat) generous (though realistic) and say you get 22 songs. what would they be???

i'm going to try and generate mine, though this could change drastically. i'm trying to think of songs i haven't heard her do live or haven't heard in a long time. or just ones that i think will be fun with a band again. here goes nothing... (in no particular order)

1. tear in your hand
2. talula
3. putting the damage on
4. raspberry swirl
5. siren
6. carbon
7. marys of the sea
8. purple people
9. sugar
10. take me with you
11. not david bowie
12. sleeps with butterflies
13. gold dust
14. pancake
15. digital ghost
16. code red
17. almost rosey
18. beauty of speed
19. bouncing off clouds
20. snow cherries from france
21. goodbye pisces
22. northern lad

wow. that was HARD!!! and i imagine it will change with my mood by day! haha. it'll be interesting when the tour starts and set lists start popping up to see what songs she plays often.

can't wait til those US dates are announced!

okay, so what would your list be??? ;D

[P a t r i c k]

I would love to hear lots of Pele and Choirgirl on this tour, and I love that she's putting Siren into her setlists this tour!

[veela]

i LOVE that she's playing siren too and really hope i get to hear it! (if US dates are ever announced that is). and i also love that she's doing code red every night because out of the entire album that is one that i most definitely want to hear.

however, i'm not so happy with "cornflake girl", "crucify" and "precious things" being back. good songs for sure, but i've heard them entirely too much and want to hear songs that i haven't heard yet. as her library of music expands, so should the variety, i think.

too much beekeeper too. we have JUST been there, Tori! i agree that i am really hoping to hear lots of pele and choirgirl. especially with the band being back (though maybe that's why there's a lot of beekeeper since she didn't have the band for that tour so she is putting a new twist on it??).

third thing i don't like -- that only one "girl" is coming out a night. that makes me sad because i want a mixture. however, i did notice that she played bouncing off clouds on a non-clyde night so that makes me hopeful.

wow. not meaning to be so negative about the tour. i was just disappointed with the last time i saw her and want it to be made up to me in a BIG way! haha... i'm sure i'll love whatever she does...

also -- so far no digital ghost. that would be another i'd want to hear.

^ yeah I dont like too much beekeeper. but then again its just because I didnt like the album, nothing to do with repartition.

dont wanna hear anything off adp yet, the album hasnt set in for me yet.

this will probably change, but for now...
bells for her
siren
jackies strength
spark
raspberry swirl
space dog
girl
suade
lust
bliss
datura
horses
blood roses
caught a light sneeze
in the springtime of his voodoo
crucify
pancake
scarlets walk
past the mission
take to the sky

[emilywatson]

Well, I would go for something like.......


Putting The Damage On
Flying Dutchman
Sister Janet
Girl
Secret Spell
Baker, Baker
Concertina
Carbon
Cooling
Taxi Ride
Almost Rosey
Goodbye Pisces
Jackie's Strength
Twinkle
Bells For Her
Mother
Strange
Toast
Cars and Guitars

and there's bound to be at least one cover so I'd say "Landslide" by Stevie Nicks


Some of these choices were easy and will always come to mind first. Some took ages, as lots of others seem just as good!
