If I get up to heaven and am treated to a five hour set from the gang, I doodled a nice little 45-song set, with a couple covers (from the Roo) thrown in for good measure, that has just about perfect sequencing in my opinion... so anyway, read if you care.

The one that will be played on 12/27/08 in Chicago. You'll see 8-)
Reflecting on the summer concert run I can't help but remember all the great shows we were gifted with this Evening with MMJ tour. The anticipation for each and every show was tremendous.
One of the things I was always most excited about was experiencing the setlist that the boys had put together for us that particular evening. As each song was ending I couldn't help from jumping out of my skin in anticipation for what the next song was going to be. I was fortunate to be around to hear some pretty gnarly sets.
To digress...and finally get the point. What would be your ideal 'perfect' set list from the boys? Any song is game, as long as it is a mmj original. Tyrone and other covers they have recorded don't count.
Post your dream setlist with up to 25 songs...
What's mine? Many good songs left out...but we only have 3 hours together ;D

And let the nightmares begin. Thanks a lot.
I've actually had 2 dreams about asking Jim if he will play The Bear for me at NYE. That is the first song I've ever heard by them and haven't heard it live yet...and I REALLY want to. (Of course in my dream he plays in for me and I'm the only one in the audience.) :D
