Now for part 2: Choosing an order. We will decide this collectively. What do we want as the opener?
wordless chorus...such a wonderful way to open the show. He sings in pitch black, then BOOM the chorus hits and My Morning Jacket is alive. no better song to open with...in my opinion.
OBH is the best opener that they will ever have...
QuoteOBH is the best opener that they will ever have...
I personally think that OBH is too big a song to open with (sorry Ghosts, I'm not intentionally disagreeing with everything you say today!)
I'm going to agree with DaFunk & give Wordless my vote!

It's all good, DB. You have your opinions and I have mine. (even though I am right...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_ZMh_3Byrk)
I am biased though, I was at this show. :D
I thought you were drunk & going to bed?!! ;)
Thanks for the clip, I saw Alice In Chains do the same thing with the white sheet years & years ago at a tiny little club in London...

I'm drunk and (should be) in bed at the moment. :D
WORDLESS!!!! Cuz when those lights hit 8-)
I think Wordless should close the first set. One Big Holiday would work in any other setlist, but with a lot of slow-burners and rarities in this set, I don't think it will work here. I say open with Twilight at twilight!
dum... dum dum dum dum dum.. dum.. dum dum dum dum dum.. it's about TWILIGHT NOW... followed by MASTERPLAN.. and then fading the end of Masterplan into Wordless
Wordless (great opener)
Lowdown (not as fast so a good warmup)
One Big Holiday (Rock and Roll!)
Dancefloors
Masterplan
All Night Long
dancefloors and easy morning rebel need to be back to back...horn section ya knows? is easy morning rebel even on the list??? if its not, thats a shame, a damn shame.
PS...we should think about what are the most danceable songs and putting a few of those together...perferably towards the end of the show. that makes it funnnnnnn!
From what I hear, it should either be Twilight or Wordless. What do we want?
I say you have to take whoever puts in first. It may not be what everyone thinks is right but that will be part of the fun.
Song #2 OFF THE RECORD (Since there is no it beats 4 u)
I suppose you are right...otherwise this thread would never end. (I'd like that though.)
Still, if a lot of people object, which on these boards shouldn't happen, we should be able to take it back. Still, Wordless has every right to be an opener. I would like Off The Record later in the setlist, but I suppose it will work second.
I know i'm new ' round here but At Dawn makes an excellent opener, understated, cool and it has a nice mellow intro to warm you up for the journey to follow.
peace
either at dawn or the dark are my favorite openers because of good memories of these songs (especially at dawn). Off the Record isn't on the setlist so I don't think it should be number 2.
Off The Record is on the setlist. Number 14.
P.S. Welcome Unravelled!
Well, I suppose BH is right. We need to do this in an orderly fasion. So we've decided that Wordless opens and Off the Record comes next. Let's get some general opinions on songs though: Which NEED to go together?
I would put Masterplan and One Big Holiday as the next two. They come in order on the album, and master is a bit slower and builds up, which is a perfect precurser to OBH
Twilight Should come whenever the sun goes down, or if the set starts at like 10 then close to the end
I agree, TBCU. Here's what we've got so far:
1. Wordless Chorus
2. Off the Record
3. Masterplan
4. One Big Holiday
:D
Dark what do you think next, some accoustic (Steam Engine, By My Car) or Lowdown/Xmas Curtain (slower but still pretty rockin)
Let's do Lowdown/Xmas Curtain. Don't want to slow down the pace too much yet.
I'm also going to say Rollin' Back at #7. So we've got...
1. Wordless Chorus
2. Off the Record
3. Master Plan
4. One Big Holiday
5. Lowdown
6. Xmas Curtain
7. Rollin' Back
Dancefloors
Phone Went West
Lay Low
War Begun
1. Wordless Chorus
2. Off the Record
3. Master Plan
4. One Big Holiday
5. Lowdown
6. Xmas Curtain
7. Rollin' Back
8. Dancefloors

I suggest, in keeping with normal MMJ procedure, that the covers are grouped together into two groups at the most. But then again, this is our setlist isn't it? We can do whatever we want!
Exactly! MMJ will probably never play Tyrone, Weeks Go By Like Days, or Hard Helmet ever again, but maybe starting threads like this will help them see how much we want them played. Do you think MMJ ever looks at the forum? I think they might...
Patrick used to be on all the time. It wasn't that long ago that he dropped in.
And I am actually Jim, posing as an aging white male from suburbia with a wife and kids that likes to make really bad jokes on the internet.
Let's just put it this way, IF the band ever looks at this forum they most likely just roll their eyes at all the aging white dudes makeing really bad jokes on the internet. I'm willing to bet they don't come here for setlist ideas, but who knows. The fact of the matter is, unless they play the Pina Colada song it could all just be coincedence. The day they play "Escape" we will know with out a doubt that the band not only reads the forum but hold us in high regard.
Don't be so sure. I remember a thread just before the first OKONOKOS show where we predicted the opener. I heard a few people say The Bear and The Dark. And look what they opened with! And if I were a band member, I'd find it hard not to look at what people were saying about us.
I double dog dare someone else to try this. This is my ultimate arrangement. I want to see what someone else comes up with.
p.s. I switched out "Pina Colada Song" with "Stranglehold" because I was the one who picked it to begin with and it really just doesn't work in this setlist.
