If you had to pick two from each album...

[adypole]

In chronilogical order (both track and album), pick two from each album to make a setlist.

this could be fun and challenging!

okay, here we go:

Out of control

I threw a brick through a window
Tomorow
new years day
40
a sort of homecoming
MLK
where the streets have no name
exit
who's gonna ride your wild horses

phew! that was hard. It's actually looking quite cohesive as a show-one step, and moment of surrender-exit and who's gonna, daddy and mofo.
