2012 Setlist Game Thread

[Rogue]

Where's Hangout? Will it be added? Is this finally my year?

[PenguinMRD]

I'm gonna give it a go this summer.

[BruceW]

cant wait! hope I remember to fill it out EVERY show lol

[antinseattle]

someone explain to me how people nail the set list each and every show???? I went to 29 shows in a 12 month span in 2009-10, and I still sucked balls. its amazing that I go check the game and see the number of points people get. I always figure Stef is playing the set list game on ants or a roadie.....(?)

You must spend many hours studying dmbalmanac.com and find trends. You need to be aware if there are 2 and 3 night stands at venue and understand that these shows will be much different to the setlists at venues that only get one show. There is more but I can't remember them now... it's been many years since I participated. The first few shows will be more of a crap shoot because a "rotation" has not been established. There will be songs that get played more often in the beginning of the tour then fall off the map and others that come out of nowhere and are played more at the end of the tour.
Yadda Yadda Yadda.

They don't usually count festival shows as part of the setlist game.

[PenguinMRD]

What are the odds of me hearing #34 at my 34th show this summer? 1 in 100? 1 in 1,000? 1 in a million? So you're sayin' there's a chance!

Quite welcome! It's also quite helpful to be spot lucky.

just quit now

[hbktonyb]

You want tips...take them from me, the Setlist Game champion of the world. 2007 - 4th place. 2008 - 2nd place (lost by one point on the triplets during the last show!). 2009 - 2nd place. 2010 winter - 1st place. 2010 summer - 1st place. 2011 - 2nd place.

Plus, you guys should check out dmbgame.com. A little different spin on the setlist game. Sometimes he updates it during the show.

I fully plan on 1st place this year. Good luck!

Lol go for it. I can probably tell you at least 12 of the songs that are going to be played . A night 2 - probably 14.

[hbktonyb]

I never won a year where they gave prizes but Jake was nice enough to give me a front page mention...truly an honor as an 8 year member

[K3nTaKa0s]

I wonder how many new songs I should put in for Friday. Hmmmmmmmm.

[Faz#41]

Whats he gonna open with.... Mmmm

[seekup41nancies]

Tried to play it safe for my 1st show and my 1st time every playing. We shall see!

[hbktonyb]

First show...gotta go safe. Putting in songs that were in heavy rotation for the last 2 years. Simple opener, simple set closer and encore. Done and done.

Now, let's hope I score like zero points

[SmoothRider[PL]]

I am so ready for the 2012 Setlist Game. Oooooooh yeah!
I hope there is a special gift for non-American players

[hbktonyb]

There is actually only one real trick to the Setlist Game. Choose Cornbread. That is all.
