Of course this is near impossible, yet I did my best. Some of you may be surprised by my choices, but I will explain my reasons for each.

(*note: I have left Genesis + troup out of this consideration*)

1. Lineup
Incubus **Headlining**
311
John Mayer
NIN
The Used

2. Headliner
Incubus
**REASON** I chose Incubus only because they are the 1 band that I have been most frustrated with their song choices nearly every show I’ve seen (minus the Riv). I am always pleased with the set list for my other choices, so I felt I needed to have Incubus headline so I COULD PICK THEIR SET LIST DAMMIT.
Oh and Brandon Boyd is a God. That too.

3. Set List
Idiot Box
Pardon Me
Azwethinkweiz
When It Comes
Vitamin
Sick Sad Little World
Wish You Were Here
Certain Shade of Green
Stellar
Pistola
Deep Inside
Echo
Warning
You Will Be a Hot Dancer
Favorite Things

4. Venue
I would say Metro - but it’s just a little too small for this. I envision an outdoor venue - early summer. I, of course, would have preferred box seating on the side of the stage with full access to an area front & center. Loree too of course.

So I’m going with Northerly Island Amphitheatre. That was a great venue!

***NOTE***
I am having a second stage - because I said so. Those performers will be:

Mudvayne **Headlining**
36 Crazyfists
Bleed The Dream
My Chemical Romance
Funeral for a Friend

Playing before the mainstage of course, so I don’t miss anything!

Line Up:
Jason Mraz
Jack Johnson
311 - (they must play My Stony Baby and 8:16)
Coldplay (they must play Green Eyes)
Dave Matthews Band (featuring Tim Reynolds)

Venue:
Red Rocks

Since this is my concert and my set list I make the rules on this one. What this concert will feature is the Band, then an accoustic interlude with Tim Reynolds, then the band comes and joins Tim and Dave on stage and does an encore. (and of course VIP rules apply.. I WANT TO BE FRONT ROW AND CENTER!!! AND THEN BACK STAGE)

Set List
One Sweet World
Jimi Thing
Grave Digger
Long Black Veil
Grey Street
Smooth Rider
Recently
Lover Lay Down
Joy Ride
Stay
Louisana Bayo

** Dave and Tim accoustic**
Crush
Bartender
Dancing Nancies
Two Step
#41
Stay or Leave
I’ll Back You Up
Wild Horses

** Band comes back and joins Dave and Tim (not accoustic)**
When the World Ends
Stolen Away on 55th and 3rd
Trouble With You

Stay or Leave is one of the best songs ever!

What no Space Between?????????????? man.

Ima come and leave after 311 plays, ok?

Whatever… I don’t know how I am friends with you.. hehe.

I can’t believe you like stay or leave. WOW. I LOOOOOVE that song. (really hit home when it came out if you know what i’m talking about… hehe..)

Actually I am not going to go to your show until the Used is done playing… who names their kid Burt McCracken anyway?????? Give it up for the TAH… BLAH!!!

Sara made me listen to “Stay or Leave”. C’mon you knew that I would never listen to a DMB song without being forced. hahaha..

and YEA I’m sure it hit home.. sheesh.. DO NOT GO THERE WHILE YOU ARE ON VACATION OR I WILL…. hear the story when you get back..

You like The Used, admit it, I seem to remember burning their cd for you??????????

How are we friends?? Shall I count the ways???
Because we both love 311 and we both use to come to work still drunk together. You’re the only person who has witnessed me drink 3-5x my body weight in a few hours time AND THEN DRIVE US HOME. (more than once). We drove to Wisconsin on 1/2 hrs notice and got back with 45 min left before work. The 12-Step. Camping. One word = Macky. Doing shots in my kitchen at 6am when we have to be at work at 8. Don’t you people have mothers?!???
Can I stop now?

But MUSICALLY?? Sometimes I have no idea how we are friends.

Well its seems to me that Loree has good taste in music. Good Dave Set, especially w/ Tim Reynolds. I’ve seen several concerts at Red Rocks b/c that is where I’m from. Definitely the bestvenue. Oh and green eeys is my fave coldplay song!

and joy.. mudvayne deserves SO much more than 2nd stage!

To tell you the truth, it doesn’t really matter who the opening bands are. Just as long as Pearl Jam headlines and Lacuna Coil plays a good hours set before them!

[...] Create-Your-Own Concert was something that I started back in 2005.   It was a fun way to dream up the ULTIMATE concert with whoever you wanted to play.  So let’s do it again!  2008 style!   The rules are the same as they’ve always been: [...]
