I mean, the songs that get everybody out on the floor dancing, and cheering the band.
Let's do a list for both country and rock.
For rock, in my experience, if you played these three all night long, you would be a hit:
Gloria
Twist and Shout
What I like About you

Who'da thunk Sam The Sham and the Pharoes would make this list.
Les Yeux Noir always works for us.
I actually played it with a balalika player last night, it went over well.
Lady Be Good done swing.
Ill thin on rock and country later. |

I always thought it would be great to play Alabama's "If your'e gonna play in Texas," but without having a fiddle in the band. I would love to see the reactions you get. But I guess that only works in Texas.
