Re: Set Lists

Agreed. I dont miss wdwgdas or BEG. My assessment so far though is that the songs he has picked that are "lesser known" have been played frequently on recent tours. In other words, dig deeper.

Re: A Few Thoughts on the Tampa Show

my thoughts on the first show: i'm glad brown eyed girl is gone, and hopefully for good. now drop southern cross. zac brown songs should be played by zac brown. not surprised at all by the lack of buffet hotel songs. i figured 3 or 4. as much as i love jamaica mistaka its been played a lot. how abou...

Re: This is getting a bit old

i'd be angry to if that was me. but i gotta say, i'm more annoyed at the song selection than anything else. how many of these encores arent even jimmys songs? half of this album was written by other artists. i know for me i look forward to his encores in the hope i will hear a real treat of a song ...

Re: Opening song for Under the Big Top Tour?

i still cant believe that there are so many fans that want him to add even more cover songs into the setlist. by adding songs that belong to and are popular right now for zac brown kind of makes jimmy look pathetic. the exeception to me is if he plays it with the artist. guys,seriously look back the...

Re: Big Top Set List Suggestions

Keeping this simple:

No Covers
No non-yellow album songs that have been played in the last 5 years of touring
Keep the Yellow Album Songs to a 7 song limit (trying to be realistic)

Re: Buffet Hotel

Anyone figured out where this album ranks in the discography? I'm still working on it but I do know for me it is above the following: Last Mango In Paris Riddles In The Sand Far Side Of The World Don't Stop The Carnival Where else it will fit in has yet to be determined. I suppose a song by song ra...

Re: Opening song for Under the Big Top Tour?

maybe its just me but an opening song should be something thats uptempo, gets everybody up on there feet and for the most part, people know. the songs on buffet hotel i dont see doing that with the exception of summerzcool because it was played last year and is very tongue and cheek. for some reaso...

Re: live or studio

i gotta agree with some of the above comments. most of the songs he does live i feel are better than the studio versions especially the anguilla album and tuesday, thursdays, saturdays. but at the same time i wish jimmy would concentrate more on singing then resorting to shouting.like someone else s...
