I have emailed you my old play list it covers the age group you are aiming at.

hi tommy just like you been around a long time i try to suss the gig as i go usually not to heavy at start i find the eagles,neil diamond etc are nice starters some sixties medleys,the slosh,line dance dont forget some country and the golden oldies love letters in the sand etc i finish my set with a dancie number usually (we love to boogie)
there are also some sing song lounges still so being a good busker helps (guitar)
enjoy your gig tonight im out sat/sunday maverick(jim)

G'day,Frankie,hey that playlist of yours sounds pretty interesting mate,it hits a lot of the age group i regually play to, any chance of a copy it would be much appreciated as i need to keep adding a few new ones to keep the interest up,also when i get back to busking (hopefully soon) i am sure that i can find a few more to add to the list as i play to quite a varied age group,many thanks...Simmo

Hi, Frankie, I'd love to see a copy of your old playlist, too, please. I haven't gigged for a while, but just trying to get myself up & running again & you may have some ideas that I haven't thought of. I don't just want to do the same as every other act I see

[freeway]

Me too Frank........always looking for something new and diff to do......

Just be aware that songs on my list were for a duo with 2 vocal harmonisers eg,Beach Boys and Turtles etc
