  • What would be the ultimate 80s set-list?

    Hello everyone,

    It's me again asking for songs to play! But I think this one is damn cool. Our bass player came to us with this idea last evening: he asked us to add a complete set dedicated to the best hard rock tunes from the 80s. [ On a side note, the guy is a video game enthusiast and I think he played too much with Guitar Hero lately... ]

    Anyway, I tought the idea was brilliant and I was wishing that we would make such a move in the coming months... And to my big surprise, everyone in the band agreed with the idea. Cool!

    So, we are 4. 2 guitars - 1 bass - 1 drums. No synth. What would composed a cool set? I'm mostly thinking classic songs that people would recognize on the first few notes of the riffs... Songs like GNR's Sweet Child and AC/DC's Back in black pop to my mind...

    I'm looking for like 12 to 15 cool titles... May be some of you are already doing so with their bands... So any ideas are welcomed!
