After that, I purposefully took some slower songs, to let my fingers take it easy after some fast songs and soloing, and finally, I chose some classics I know they show know (unless they've lived under a rock. Knockin' is a perfect sing-along and I know they've at least heard Sweet Child, and quite likely also Dream On). And the two set-in-stone Encores, for if they want more, are their favorites amongst the songs in my repertoire (I chose Sailing and Smoke On The Water specifically because of that). The Encores need to, in my opinion, need to get some sort of special treatment, and thus, I chose some that I know they'll love.
haghj500: I'm actually pretty much just copying what works for others. I don't know yet how it'll go, since I've never played with a setlist before... I should probably consider printing out the setlist and having it placed so I can see it while playing... Would make it easier to remember the order of the songs :)
