Looks pretty good although Granny is a fairly weak closer. Any reason for it being a primarily DMB setlist? Will your audience be familiar with most of these songs?

Looks pretty good, I'd put some Halloween before that Granny and maybe drop the So Much And Too Much, but my thoughts however.

hey in response, September 27th is dave matthews day... so we are playing our setlist accordingly to play tribute to such an amazing person. In regards to your comments, i personally like finishing with granny. The night is going to be pretty laid back, hence the slower/quieter songs. The encore picks it up a little bit. I think the Halloween before granny is a great idea. Also, what about instead of SMTS-->TM .... PNP-->TM . That would shorten it a little.

honestly our band never plays dmb outside of this specific date so we wouldnt have time to learn seep up as well as it should be, but i just redid the setlist and incorporated a couple suggestions. let me know what you think!

How about TM into TB?

Oh, but I would also scrap WAYG, that song bugs me.

i originally had TM in the setlist but dropped it out when DN came in.

im not sure if your audience will be familiar with all these as dave, such as long black veil, the stone, and maybe pig. i also dont know if your covers are really similar to dmb or have a bunch of your own style. i think crash might be one to put in that everyone knows regardless of if they know dmb. and what about ants?
