Subject: GW Reunion

Ok, everybody has a different opinion on whether the guys should do any non GW songs. Let's hear which GW songs you'd like to see them do. We'll call it the "Dream List". Here's mine:
Bye Bye Babe (BC should have sang lead in the first place)
Attila's Blues
Palmyra ( Perfect time to complete this lost gem)
When the Band Was Singin "Shakin All Over"
Proper Stranger

> How about an updated Ballad of the Last 5 years (Ballad of the last 30 years)?
I'd vote for Take it off my shoulders., Pleasin for Reason, Share the Land, Sour Suite

NO TIME
SHARE THE LAND...great as a rocker or a softer tune.
SOUR SUITE
GUNS GUNS GUNS...why wasn't it a bigger hit?
BACK TO THE CITY..."Rockin'" is TGW's most under-rated disc"

Well, we can pretty much guess that they'll do all the major hits (all the Pan-Am songs), so here's my list:
FRIENDS OF MINE (good rocker to showcase each member in a solo)
GUNS, GUNS, GUNS
LIFE IN THE BLOODSTREAM
WHEN FRIENDS FALL OUT
STAR BABY
DREAMS
SPECIES HAWK
BROKEN
A WEDNESDAY IN YOUR GARDEN
DO YOU MISS ME DARLIN'
MUSICIONE
BACK TO THE CITY
DANCIN' FOOL
Some stuff from the Quality days would be cool too like "Clock On The Wall" or "It's My Pride".
And if they do solo stuff, Randy could do "Main Street USA" and Burton "Meanin' So Much" or "Mile A Second". I know this won't happen, but I'd really dig it! Could you imagine?!

Besides the usual hits, these would be great to hear:
Talisman
Proper Stranger
Three More Days
Pain Train
When Friends Fall Out
This Time long ago
Rock and Roller Steam
Lie Down
Dancing Fool
From BC's solo-albums they could do Charlemagne and
You Saved My Soul. And from Randy's solo-repertoire
Prairie town and Born In Canada would be great to
hear by Guess Who.

"Tramp" is from the first BTO LP (the one with "Blue Collar") with Randy singing. It's got the "Lady Madonna" or Steve Miller's "Space Cowboy" riff (copies riff up the 4th with the chord change).
("I'll gladly take a dime, anytime")

Let's see - if I have to limit this to less than "all of them", here's my list:

Of a Dropping Pin
Proper Stranger
Runnin' Down the Street
Share the Land
Do You Miss Me Darlin'
Life in the Bloodstream
Broken
So Long, Bannatyne
Attila's Blues
Loves Me Like a Brother
Roseanne
Heaven Only Moved Once/Don't You Want Me
Lie Down

And from Burton's solos (anything he wants to), but I'd love to hear:
Your Backyard; Charlemagne; Wait By The Water; Had to Be You; The Rock's Steady; and Lay It on The Line

Here are some gems that were not hits but would be fun to hear: All Hashed Out, Grey Day, Do You Miss Me Darlin, Proper Stranger, Cardboard Empire, Bye Bye Babe (a terrific show starter), Wednesday In Your Garden, When Friends Fall Out, Broken, Heaven Only Moved Once Yesterday, Dreams.

> Forgot Heartbroken Bopper. Best vehicle for Burton to let it out and scream a rock and roller.

Rise from the gutter, there's too much that's gone to waste!!

Like the idea of Back to the City
