Title: Birthday request suggestions needed
Post by: mshray on February 28, 2005, 11:08:10 AM
My b-day is Sunday, but Friday sets are usually pretty good without any suggestions to Dave.  So, I thought I might drop Dave a line & tell him my birthday is Monday and ask about having him play the Don Pardo clip "And now ladies & gentlemen...the LOOOONG Version," followed by a suitably long song.  IIRC, the only songs we've heard the last few months that would have qualified were "Loan Me A Dime" & "Time Has Come Today".

I'd ask for something else, maybe even offering a short list of ideas.  Songs that come to mind off the top of my head are:

Green Grass And High Tides Forever - Outlaws
Closer To Home - Grand Funk
Telegraph Road - Dire Straits
Marquee Moon - Television*
Three Days - Jane's Addiction**

Anybody got other nominees?

*this is my top choice that I think might have an oustide chance
** this is my top choice that I am sure Dave would never play

Mine would be the Doors' "Soft Parade" but that's '69 which was today. Didn't we hear "Telegraph Road" recently?

"All By Myself"

"In a Gadda-da-Vita"

(which make for an intriguing sentence when read back to back)

In a garden of resumes? :P Then there's "In a Gadda-De-Vito" (insert Rhea Perlman joke here).

(I believe the Iron Butterfly tune is spelled "da Vida".)

I haven't heard CCR's "Suzie Q" in ages...
