These are songs that we've played or are working on playing well. The LIST column describes how much we play the song. A is something we can play well at the drop of a hat. A minus means we're working on it getting on the A list. B means we've played it at least once, but it'd need a good amount of rehearsal to get great. S means it's a seasonal piece, so we will play it when appropriate. C means we tried it out and it would take a long time to get great. |
