Setlist.....

Post by maxman142001 »

So I know Jack has said time and time again that they never used setlists...does anyone know if they used them ever? Maybe in the early years around the S/T or De Stijl years?

I had one once from the DW live at TMR show.

I don't know if that Live at the Gold Dollar was a set list on stage or one that Ben wrote out as they played. He would always write down the set for posterity.

He had what appeared to be a setlist at the RSD show at TMR this year. I saw Lalo set it on top of one of the tube amps and Jack referred to it several times during the show. But the band did not have copies, and it seemed like he was still going around and telling them what to play between songs.

Good Question Leland.

The White Stripes only used set lists occasionally during the early self-titled era of 1998-1999.
It's possible they may have used set-lists very early during the DeStijl tour in 2000, but I don't remember 100% for certain.
My recollection is that by DeStijl they did away with set-lists completely.

That's a good question to ask Jack on the next vault chat.
He's the only one who'd know for sure.

I thought there were two versions of the setlist that was included at random with the LP, as in one was Meg's, one was Jack's?
