(Finished October 19th, 2019) A Recent Tyler Bryant and The Shakedown Setlist

Hello,

This is the most recent setlist for Tyler Bryant and the Shakedown that I could find. They're opening for Guns N' Roses here in Salt Lake City on October 29th, 2019. Obviously they won't be playing as long as they did on the night of this setlist, but I thought this would give a flavor of them as a band, the songs and whatever else. Their most recent CD, "Truth and Lies" was released June 28th, 2019.

This is their setlist for their September 16th, 2019 show at the Capital Ale House in Richmond, Va. (Thanks to setlist.fm)

1) "Drive Me Mad":


2) "On To The Next":


3) "Ride":


4) "Shape I'm In":


5) "Trouble":


6) "That's All Right"/ Blues Jam:


7) "Downtown Tonight":


8) "Without You":



Let's see how Bluesy they really are by taking on this Muddy Waters classic. 9) "Mojo Workin'":



10) "Eye to Eye":



11) "Judgment Day":



12) "Couldn't See The Fire":


13) "Lipstick Wonder Woman":


Encore

14) "House That Jack Built":

(Finished October 17th, 2019) How Is Axl Sounding in 2019?

Hello,

I'm going to the Not In This Lifetime Tour in a little less than two weeks. I've heard some pretty terrible instances of Axl Rose's voice lately, I'm hoping he sounds good on October 29th. Since I paid full price I expect a full performance.

He doesn't sound as good as he did back in the day, which I didn't expect him to. However I'm relieved he sounds so much better than he was last year. I'm looking forward to this concert.

The first time they've played this song since February 20th, 1992.  He sounds pretty good here although the sound quality isn't great. And will that lady please stop screaming? 1) "Locomotive":


2) "Coma":


3) "You Could Be Mine":



4) A cover of Soundgarden's "Black Hole Sun":



5) "Double Talkin' Jive":



6) "Mr. Brownstone":



Great audio and video. If they sound this good in Salt Lake I would be very happy.
7) "Paradise City":



8) "Welcome To The Jungle":



9) "Sweet Child O' Mine":



10) "November Rain":



11) "Nightrain":

(Finished October 16th, 2019) Best Songs By Those That Died In Aircraft, Part 1

Hello,

James Horner died June 22nd, 2015. He wrote music for over 100 soundtracks. His most famous work is for "Titanic", which sadly is one of the worst movies ever. I still want the 3 hours back of my life I used to watch that movie. Horner was the only person aboard the plane that crashed into the Los Padres National Forest. Three days later the crash was ruled an accident. (Thanks to Wikipedia.org)

I didn't plan on one blog to only have one musician, this blog just took on a life of it's own. The plan is only to have one to a few songs per musician, which is what I'll try to stick to with future blogs.

1) "Lighting The Fuse" from "The Magnificent Seven":


2) "Futile Escape" from "Aliens":


3) "Following KGB/ Releasing Sables/ End Credits" from "Gorky Park":


4) "Main Title" From "Clear and Present Danger":


5) "Combat Drop" from "Aliens":



I spent a lot of time researching this. When I wasn't satisfied with the songs I found I Googled and found a Buzzfeed article that gave me the following songs.

6) "Main Title from The Wrath of Kahn":



7) "Main Title" from "Aliens":



8) Linda Ronstadt, James Ingram and James Horner "Somewhere Out There" from "An American Tail":



9) "A Call To Arms" from "Glory":



10) "The Chase" from "Cocoon":



A song I found from my own research. 11) "Achilles Leads The Myrmidons":
