Post subject: Acoustic set list
Archived from groups: uk>rec>motorcycles, others (more info?)

Forgive the x-post to uk.rec.motorcycles & uk.music.guitar, I read
both so here goes. I've done some acoustic duo stuff and I play in a
covers band doing guitar and backing vocals. I've been asked, by a
couple of venues, to do an acoustic set and have become tempted to put
something together. Trouble is, I'm struggling for ideas.

I'm no singer but there are some songs I can get away with. So far
I've got...

Wild Wood - Paul Weller
Back On The Chain Gang - The Pretenders
Maybe Tomorrow - Stereophonics

I rather like Pink Floyd's "San Tropez"; easy to play too, with only six
chords. Ideally you should have a piano accompaniment, but it's OK without.

Also the Floyd's 'Wish You Were Here' - or is that a bit obvious?

Joe Jackson's 'Is she really going out with him?'

Stones - Angie

Green Day - Good Riddance

Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah

Travelling Wilburys - Handle With Care

Don't be afraid to try out stuff that you wouldn't normally associate
with just acoustic guitar and vox.

A mate and I once did an acoustic version - me on guitar and him on
vocals - of Queen's Bo Rhap in an Xmas Eve set to a pub full of
people. It went down a bomb and the audience sang all the guitar solo
bits.........

In the end it all boils down to the song and the craic.

Steve.

C'mon young man, shirley you can do more than that?

Even songs like "All Right now" go down well acoustically. What about Hotel
California?

This is my acoustic set which seems to go down well pick a few from here: If
you need to TABS I'll mail them to you but I'm sure you've got most of them.

All or Nothing
All right now
Bad Moon Rising
Blowing In The Wind
Bring it on Home
Bye Bye Love
Cotton Fields
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Crocodile Rock
Dock of the bay
Games People Play
Get Back
Gimme Some Loving
Give Peace a Chance
Hi Ho Silver Lining
Honky Tonk Angels
Hound Dog
House of the rising sun
I can see clearly now
I hear you knocking
I'm a Beliver
It doesn't matter any more
Keep on Running
Keep the customer satisfied
King of the Road
Knocking on Heaven's Door
Let it be
Midnight Hour
Mighty Quinn
Mustang Sally
My-Girl
Oh Boy
Proud Mary
Rave On
Rocking All over the World
Roll Over Beethoven
Singing the Blues
Spirit in the Sky
Stand by Me
Summer of 69
Sweet Home Alabama
The Last Time
We love to boogey
The Last Time
We love to boogey

Crowded House

Del Amitri

Travis

....the list goes on and on.

A personal favourite "live/acoustic" is Thin Lizzy's "Dancing In The
Moonlight".
Everybody can sing the bassline, even if the don't remember the song..
