It seems like if you were going to see a band play, you'd already know the names of their songs. Whereas you wouldn't necessarily know the stuff the dj played.

last i heard, club management "strongly encourages" DJs to post their setlist on the forum.

a'front: some bands take control of the music before they go on, so what you're listening to is whatever they want (they usually provide a mix CD).  otherwise, the 930 club has a DJ (like ravedubin) play toons… and they posts what they played here on the forum.


Well if the club is encouraging him to post his songs he plays on here I shouldn't be busting his chops.   But it is strange to me that they post what songs a dj plays and not what songs the actual band played.  Which would be more interesting to me.  But like I said there are already sites for that.  But if someone lead off the set list the band played on stage it might lead to interesting follow-up.  But whatver I am done bitching about this.



For the most part, I agree but occassionally a band will pull out some obscure number that catches the crowd by surprise. They often announce those sort but it's not always all the easy to understand what someone is saying over a PA system, especially if you are stuck next to a group of obnoxious talkers. A posted band setlist would be nice but that's asking too much from Seth as it would be hell for him to expect one from the band.
9:30 tumblr sometimes posts band set lists.

I also don't mind DJ setlists getting a new thread for each show– easier to find them that way.  It's a little bit different for the SLDC thread, where when I update this week's "recently updated" list, I'm also deleting last week's– so no history is preserved.  Very different from the band DJ lists, where each show is a completely different DJ set list.
