Imaginary Unplugged Setlist

Recommended Posts

I'm inspired by the "What would you do if you were Matt for a day" topic, that I thought I would pose this question to you.

 

Let's say that Muchmusic decided to produce it's own Unplugged series and they invited Matt to perform on their first show.

 

So what song(s) would you want Matt to play on this imaginary airing of his own Unplugged? Would you want him to do any covers?

 

I'll get it started. I would want to hear acoustic versions of:

 

1) Apparations

2) Near Fantastica

3) Fated

4) Any Bob Dylan Song

 

What do you think?

Hahahaaa....it' a long show, but hey.....who's gonna complain eh?!?!?!

In my opinion Matt doesn't need to do any covers....his songs are all brilliant & he has a plethora of his own stuff from which he could make a set list plenty long enough. Man, I'd love to see an acoustic show. Hell, I'd just love to see him live. He never played in Oz (where I am from) & I live in South Texas now & he don't get down this way either.

See, I would agree, but the covers he's done have been brilliant. I say any Bob Dylan cover because, I don't know if you remember, but Matt had(has) a short video of him doing an impromptu Dylan cover during the recording of the video for In A World Called Catastrophe. I always wanted to hear him do a full version of his version.

 

Also, MGB's cover of Depeche Mode's Enjoy The Silence is easily one of the best covers I've heard.

Great thread!

 

I'd like to hear him do a cover of "That's the Way" or "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" by Led Zep, "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd and/or "Subterranean Homesick Blues" by Bobby D. I'm just so curious as to how those would work with his vocals.

 

As for original Matty G songs I'd like to hear acoustic (in no particular order)...

Avalanche

Apparitions
