So... I've been thinking lately about starting a band. Finally found a bunch of guys that play instruments (my school days proved that I had no friends with musical talent ? ), and was thinking about pieces that make up a good gig.
As always happens, whenever I'm daydreaming I remember awesome songs that live bands I've seen before have performed. Then, when I sit down and think about it, I can only think of a few. SO....
What do you guys recommend? The main genre would be rock. All members of the proposed band are fans of the old-school stuff (AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Led Zeppelin, etc...) but aren't against some of the newer stuff too. As long as it's good music that makes the audience want to sing and dance along, that's awesome.
Ok, so a couple of songs that seem to get the crowd going (from what I've seen):
- Summer of '69 - Brian Adams
- I love Rock and Roll - Joan Jett
- A rock version of Lady Gaga's Poker Face (I've heard this, it's actually impressive ? )
- Highway to Hell - AC/DC
So, other suggestions? I know I'm gonna be kicking myself when I read the suggestions, but hey, that's life :-[
