I had an idea recently to expand upon the Ultimate Set List category. I thought that if I were to put together a “dream tour” scenario into the aether, that maybe, just maybe, it might come true. The first one I came up with involves Mastodon, Neurosis and the very awesome, O’Brother. All three of these bands have released fantastic new albums. Mastodon’s Emperor Of Sand is well on it’s way to my album of the year for 2017. O’Brother put out Endless Light, one of the top 5 albums of 2016 and, Neurosis, well they continue to put out quality albums with their newest, 2016’s Fires Within Fires.
With all that in mind, here are the guidelines for this now expanded category.
1: Where would you want to see the show
2: What is the order/set lengths of the bands
3: What line up of the band would it be (If necessary)
4: maximum 25 songs (In order of how the set should go)
