If Brian/Al/David/Blondie continued after this year's successful tour, but without the joint billing with Jeff Beck, what 40-45 song setlist would you like to see?
Off the top of my head, here's mine:
1. Funky Pretty (with all 4 trading leads)
2. This Whole World
3. California Girls
4. Darlin'
5. I Can Hear Music
6. California Saga (On My Way to Sunny Californ-i-a) (Al on full lead)
7. Here She Comes
8. Do It Again
9. Sloop John B (Al lead)
10. I Just Wasn't Made For These Times
11. Add Some Music To Your Day
12. Your Imagination
13. Good Kind Of Love
14. Orange Crate Art
15. Sail Away
16. Sail On Sailor
17. Bye Bye Babe
18. California Dreamin'
19. Then I Kissed Her
20. Catch A Wave
21. Hawaii (David)
22. Marcella
Intermission (if necessary)
23. Heroes & Villains (1973 In Concert arrangement with Al on lead)
24. Surf's Up
25. Til I Die
26. Lookin At Tomorrow
27. Little Bird (David)
28. All This Is That
29. Please Let Me Wonder
30. You Still Believe In Me
31. Midnight's Another Day
32. God Only Knows
33. Wouldn't It Be Nice (Al)
34. Honkin Down The Highway (Al)
35. Summertime Blues (David)
36. Do You Wanna Dance
37. Dance Dance Dance
38. Wild Honey (Blondie - MIC live arrangement)
39. Rock And Roll Music (Al or David)
40. Good Vibrations
41. Surfin' USA
Encore:
42. Barbara Ann
43. I Get Around
44. Fun Fun Fun
45. Love & Mercy
Other possibilities: Good Timin', Lookin Down The Coast, Lady Lynda/Little Lady, Little Deuce Coupe, Shut Down, California Feeling, a lot of Brian Wilson solo stuff, Big Wave, etc.

The whole damn Wild Honey album. With some Love You material thrown in, whether Foskett likes it or not. Let Blondie sing the two songs he did this year and add "Leaving This Town" and "He Come Down". And what the hell, "Carry Me Home".

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

All of Wild Honey would be such fun... and pretty damn short so you could cram in lots of other stuff and yer basic slab of da hits.
Here's something not too stressful that can mutate as the tour continues:
Their Hearts Were Full of Spring
California Girls
Catch a Wave
Hawaii
Dance, Dance, Dance
In My Room
Surfer Girl
Please Let Me Wonder
Then I Kissed Her
Don't Worry Baby
Old Man River/Cotton Fields
Little Bird
Do it Again
Summertime Blues
Do You Wanna Dance?
Run, James, Run (if it sucks, replaces it with car song #53435435)
I Get Around
Set 2
Our Prayer
Heroes and Villains
Vega-tables (Al lead)
Goin' Home
God Only Knows
California Saga: California
Sail On, Sailor (enter Blondie)
Wild Honey
A Mess of Help to Stand Alone
Honkin' Down the Highway
Marcella
Right Time or Guess You Had to Be There, ie: another new song from the album.
Pet Sounds
Wouldn't It Be Nice
Sloop John B
Good Vibrations
Surfin' USA
Fun, Fun, Fun/Rhapsody in Blue/Shortnin' Bread
Summer's Gone
Then start swapping songs out and sprinkle in stuff like You're So Good to Me, Forever, Here Today, Your Imagination, Custom Machine, Our Car Club, Take Good Care of Your Feet, Johnny B Goode, Darlin', Monster Mash, Til I Die, Kiss Me Baby, Add Some Music, Southern California, Lay Down Burden, Caroline, No -- keep it fresh and fun for the band and distribute lots of leads around.

I really hope they do continue as this tour (and the setlist) seems to have gotten better and better.
The most important thing for me would be more Al songs. Honkin Down the Highway, Then I Kissed Her, Cottonfields, California Saga, Lookin at Tomorrow etc.

I really hope they do this. The hourlong sets this fall were
way
too short. The grouping has real promise, especially with Blondie. Although you begin to have the wall-of-guitars issue onstage again ...

Girl Don't Tell Me
In My Room
Surfer Girl
Please Let Me Wonder
Then I kissed Her
Breakaway
California Saga
Darlin'
Summer's Gone
...and those are just from looking at the shows from this summer!

I'd be picking about 4 songs from the new album, maybe more if Beck joins the group again.

Bye Bye Babe, eh, Eric? I love the idea of adding some solo Blondie stuff – he's one of the most creative ex-BBs of all. Maybe even a Flame number as a tip to Carl's history too.
I also think Brian's been missing a trick for 13 years by not including Rio Grande in the set list while he's got that big, versatile backing band to call on…

You guys need to give Blondie more to do. Let's see, Wild Honey, Sail On Sailor, He Come Down, Leaving This Town, Funky Pretty, and Mess Of Help would be good ones!

Well in my opinion if Dave gets three leads then Blondie should get three. Also its kinda hard to find more than 6 or 7 songs that Al could do unless he takes over some of Brian's leads.

I woukd like to see more Al, Dave and Blondie leads. Or co-leads with Brian.
One of Howie Es articles mentioned a BADB tour this summer to support the new album. So mix in 4 of those songs.

To be honest i'm more interested in the idea of them making records, in fact it's the first time i'm excited to hear the next Brian Wilson album!

I'd prefer Riverboat Queen over Bye Bye Babe if we're choosing from Blondie's first solo LP, but as someone who's heard his unreleased Fragile Thread recordings, it isn't fair to limit his solo spot to
a obscure release from 36 years ago... Lets see what he has in his bag-O-tumes .

I would love to see "Wouldn't It Be Nice To Live Again" with Brian on lead during the verses and a soaring Blondie on the chorus.
Totally do-able and the coolest tribute they could pay to the man.

over here
