Title: A brilliant idea...
Post by boynamedgoo on Nov 27^th, 2004, 3:46pm

Now that the dust has settled, and we finally have our Goo DVD... I want to bring this up before I forget about it. I know this was a rare event to have a band record a live concert to be released, but after watching the behind the scenes portion of the DVD... I was thinking...

One thing that is mentioned early in the bonus video was that the original idea was to do a 2 night set at Shea's. Knowing that the Goo's 20th anniversary is coming up in 2007 (I know, holy crap!), wouldn't it be cool for the Goos to do a couple nights at Shea's as a special event in '07 to make a special video/CD to be released? During the buildup of the USJ gig, there were claims that the set list would "span the career". Unfortunately, it was half-Gutterflower and only 4 songs pre-DUTG were performed.

As a special 20th anniversary thing, they could do one night of early stuff and the second night of later stuff, performing no less than 2 and no more than 4-6 songs off of each album, a better way to "span the career", IMO. The only exception would be A Boy Named Goo, because I think it fills out the lists very well...

So the set list could be like... (not in a particular order)
Night 1
(from First Release)
1 I'm Addicted
2 T0rn Apart
(from Jed)
3 No Way Out
4 Up Yours
(from HMU)
5 On Your Side
6 There You Are
7 Two Days in February
8 Never Take the Place of Your Man (w/Lance Diamond)
9 Laughing
10 Out of the Red/Hey
(from SSCW)
11 Cuz You're Gone
12 Domino
13 We Are the Normal
14 String of Lies
15 So Far Away
16 On the Lie
(from ABNG)
17 Long Way Down
18 Only One
19 Burnin' Up
20 Ain't That Unusual
21 Slave Girl
22 Flat Top
(B-Sides)
23 Lazy Eye
24 Don't Change

Night 2
(from ABNG)
1 Name
2 Naked
3 Somethin' Bad
4 Eyes Wide Open
("B-side")
5 Iris
(from DUTG)
6 Slide
7 Broadway
8 Black Balloon
9 January Friend
10 Amigone
11 All Eyes On Me
(from GF)
12 Big Machine
13 Tucked Away
14 Here Is Gone
15 What a Scene
16 Sympathy
17 Smash
(from LIB)
18 Give a Little Bit
(from next album)
19
20
21
22
23

What do you guys think? Wouldn't that kick ass?

if I remember correctly from the set list the camera guy in front of me had, there were about 25 songs on the original set list... several were cut due to the rain... because if you remember the pre-event press, they had planned an extended set... an average set from the Gutterflower tour was 22 songs... the longest set I saw was in Orlando, they played 23 songs...

Definitely e-mail them that. I would SO be there for all those old songs! I don't think they realize there are so many of us that LOVE their older stuff ;D

Still a good idea, IMO.

That would be an awesome bad ass concert line up!! I might change a few of the songs around though. Other than that...brilliant idea, definitely!!! :rockin:

Although, I think the Goos might be a little worn out from playing so many songs in such a short period of time. Robby said the only reason why they did that LIB concert was because so many people wanted them to do it. So, if we want this two night thing to happen guys, we've got to let the guys know about it ahead of time and promote the idea somehow. :)...anyone got "connections"? LOL. ::)

WHOOHOO....Hell ya I'd be there, that would be a slammin setlist. I think it'd be a big turn out, especially with the older stuff bein played. What better timing to do something like that too! I bet the ticket would be pricey though!
