If you could choose a set list for a wildhearts show on the next tour what would you have?


heres mine :

Rooting for the bad guy
The Sweetest song
Nothing Ever Changes
Stormy in the north
geordie in wonderland
tv tan
pissjoy
So into you
Move On
Liberty Cap

Sucker punch
shut your fuckin mouth
sick of drugs
all american british homeboy crowd
Weekend

Encore
Nita nitro

Anthem (dunno how that would pan out without danny)

I think the venue would probably have turned the power off by the time they get through that lot.

Long as they play The Hard Way and Sweetest Song i'll be happy. oh, and Headfuck is always a belter live. oh, and Caprice (this could go on all day)

This is my ultimate Wildhearts setlist!

Sick Of Drugs
T.V Tan
Nothing Ever Changes But The Shoes
Caffeine Bomb
Shut Your Fucking Mouth
Hate The World Day
Loveshit
Vanilla Radio
Return To Zero
Everlone
Drinking About lIfe

Slaughtered Authors
29 X The Pain

See, I've never been much of a fan of Caprice to be honest...

I'd really like to see Shame On Me back into the set list, and Red Light Green Light, and Getting It, and about 90% of the new album, then a whack of B-Sides; S.I.N., Dangerlust, Two-Way Idiot Mirror, Shut Your Fucking Mouth...this could go on forever really!

Perhaps controversially, I wouldn't mind loosing Caprice, Headfuck and, although it's not played much, Jonesing For Jones.

Not that I don't like them, although how much I like them is debatable, just they don't really move me live. See also O.C.D. - I always enjoy it when it's played but I always feel a bit dissapointed when I see it on the set list.

It's funny cos Iove absolutely love OCD and always pogo like a demented gibbon when they play it live.

I was never especially in to Caprice until they played it live at a couple of gigs I went to and suddenly it just seemed like the greatest song in the world to jump about to. Also really like the version of it on the Hultsfred(?) festival bootleg.

Two Way Idiot Mirror & Getting It would be my first requests.

Also Channel Bop, Pissjoy, and The British All American Homeboy Crowd.

But I could go on all night as I think of others...

I'll be at the new york shows, and I have two wishes -

1) anything but the standard, predictable, Wildhearts-by-numbers setlist that they played at Scarborough castle in 2005.

2) at least 25% variance between the two shows. Lord knows they have enough songs.

I've never been to a Wildhearts gig. I'm going to the LA show @ the Key Club in October. And I'm pumped. Here's my set list:

VANILLA RADIO
GREETINGS FROM SHITSVILLE
THE SWEETEST SONG
GIRLFRIEND CLOTHES
STORMY IN THE NORTH
THE HARD WAY
NOTHING EVER CHANGES
JONESING FOR JONES
BI-POLAR BABY
ROOTING FOR THE BAD GUY
NITA NITRO
SUCKERPUNCH
---------------
TURNING AMERICAN
CAPRICE
I WANNA GO

As many b-sides and obscurities as possible, really. And things I've not seen live before. Not in order, cos I'm lazy, but something along the lines of:

Rooting for the Bad Guy
The Hard Way
Bi-Polar Baby
Caprice
Dangerlust
Show a Little Emotion
Just Stay
Bad Time to be Having a Bad Time
Two-Way Idiot Mirror
Beautiful Thing You
Hate The World Day
Loveshit
Something Weird
Sky Babies
Bang!
---
Jonesing for Jones
Nita Nitro
Anthem

that would do for me!
