I was just thinking, if bad luck and craziness had not hit The Beatles so strongly and their history was pretty much like the Stones history (still all 4 of them alive, all together as a band, and doing tours today) what 15 songs would be EXPECTED from the group in the same manner as The Stones have their "must play" list of songs/warhorses. I broke it up like this 6 Lennon/6 Macca/2 Harrison/1 Ringo. Here's my list (you can assume all the best stuff from the solo albums would have made it onto future Beatles albums or you can just stick to The Beatles catalogue - how ever you wanna do it):

MACCA - Hey Jude/Let it Be/Yesterday/Get Back/Saw Her Standing There/Maybe I'm Amazed --- BONUS: (Replace one with - Here, There, and Everywhere)

LENNON - Come Together/A Day in a Life/Strawberry Fields/Lucy in the Sky/Help/In My Life --- BONUS: (Replace one with - I am the Walrus)

HARRISON - Something/While My Guitar Gently Weeps

RINGO - A Little Help From my Friends

OR, if you pretty much agree with my Warhorse set list how about putting up a 20 - 22 song list of your perfect Beatle concert today - you pick the songs you would have wanted to see and hear....

Waterloo
Knowing Me, Knowing You
Money, Money, Money
The Winner Takes It All
Dancing Queen

... aah, never mind

- Doxa

Ok here is a setlist. Even though it's a complete waste of time, I have some time on my hands. However, there are more songs, because lots of the beatles songs are around the 2min mark so you can get plenty of songs in a 2hr 30min show.



Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club band
With a little help from my friends
Day Tripper
I wanna hold your hand
Drive my car
If I needed someone
Help
A hard days night
In my life
Taxman
There's a place

Two of us
I'm looking through you
Here there and everywhere
Across the universe
Eleanor rigby
Blackbird
Julia
Here comes the sun

Back in the USSR
I saw her standing there
You won't see me
nowhere man
and your bird can sing
got to get you into my life
lucy in the sky with diamonds
getting better
Something
The long and winding road
Lady madonna
Let it be

Yesterday
Come together
Get Back
Hey Jude

Please please me
Golden slumbers
Carry that weight
The end



Can you imagine seeing this live, THE BEATLES?!

Good list Mr. Jimmy.... I forgot all about it but I'd also throw in REVOLUTION (DON'T LET ME DOWN would probably be one Lennon would wanna play...)

Any Chuck Berry tunes???

Oh yeah! Don't let me down! Forgot about that gem. One of my favourites. Ok, I'd put revolution after 'something', and john would do a solo acoustic version of don't let me down after blackbird!

Jeez i don't think anyone could get through that show without crying, screaming, shouting, weeping, and jumping for sheer music-induced joy...
