What's your Eagles "Dream Setlist"?

[StephUK]

I don't know why you have a problem with my setlist. These are songs that I would like to hear. I would love to hear Bernie sing more than one song. I have always been a fan of Henley's voice, so I really like his songs. More songs could be added but these are the ones I really want to hear. It is my list, I can put down what I want.

Seems to me you'd be better of at a Don Henley solo show! except Bernie wouldn't be there, of course.

At an Eagles show, I want to hear each of them sing lead vocals. I would be very disappointed if they sang your set list; but as you say it's your dream.

I've moved BRD's post and its replies to the "Dream Setlist" thread. It pertains more closely to that since there's "no particular order" to BRD's list, and thelastresort's question was about one's thoughts on the structure of the current setlist. Plus, eliminating all of Tim and Glenn's songs falls under the category of "pipe dream" which we reserve for the fantasy threads like this one.

If anyone needs more clarification about what the phrase "setlist structure" means or is simply interested in reading more about it, there's some webpages on composing setlist structure here and here.

If anyone needs more clarification about the difference between a "dream setlist" and an "actual setlist," then feel free to ask!

I know all these related threads can be confusing. I do my best to try to keep 'em in order. Hope this helps!

It's a discussion board, so aren't any Dream Setlists up for discussion? I'll just add that BRD's list didn't include anything sung by Joe, either so it's an unusual choice.

When I saw the band, I was surprised at how different it was to listening to the records. I've never thought much of Those Shoes but in concert, it was a hightlight whereas some of the quieter songs that I usually love, dragged a little. It makes me realise that I couldn't put together a Dream Setlist on my own.

What I'd really like it to go back in time and hear the band play back in the 1970s when they played as a 4, 5 or even 6-piece. Probably the On the Border tour, though I'm tempted by The Long Run tour, too.

On the Border tour, a pretty up-tempo list but maybe not enough of Bernie's singing:

1. Take It Easy
   
2. Outlaw Man
   
3. Already Gone
   
4. Peaceful Easy Feeling
   
5. Doolin-Dalton
   
6. Midnight Flyer
   
7. Twenty-One
   
8. Desperado
   
9. Blackberry Blossom
   
10. James Dean
    
11. Tryin'
    
12. Witchy Woman
    
13. Chug All Night

The setlist from the infamous Long Beach concert which I love for the inclusion of After the Thrill is Gone and King of Hollywood:

• 
  
  1. Saturday Night
     
  2. After the Thrill Is Gone
     
  3. Keep On Tryin'
     (Poco cover)
  4. Seven Bridges Road
     (Steve Young cover)
  5. Pretty Maids All in a Row
     
  6. Hotel California
     
  7. Already Gone
     
  8. In the City
     (Joe Walsh song)
  9. King of Hollywood
     
  10. The Sad Café
      
  11. Lyin' Eyes
      
  12. I Can't Tell You Why
      
  13. Wasted Time (Reprise)
      
  14. Desperado
      
  15. Those Shoes
      
  16. Heartache Tonight
      
  17. The Long Run
      
  18. Life's Been Good
      (Joe Walsh song)
  19. Life in the Fast Lane
      
  20. Rocky Mountain Way
      (Joe Walsh song)
  21. Sea Cruise
      (Huey "Piano" Smith cover)
  22. Take It Easy
