Lightbulb Set List Suggestions Please

Hello everyone, hope you're all having a nice day.

I'm just looking for some suggestions for a setlist I'm trying to make. I've been offered a regular gig at a local pub but I need to increase the length of my set a little bit. Any suggestions have to be songs that won't take months to learn well and can be done by me and my guitar.

Here's what I've got so far:

Time Is Running Out (Muse)
Insane (Damien Rice)
Breakdown (Original)
Hotel California (The Eagles)
Older Chests (Damien Rice)
Save Me (Remy Zero (smallville theme tune))
I'm alright (Stereophonics)
The Professor (Damien Rice)
Hallelujah (Jeff Buckleys version, not Lenoards)
Crossroads (Don Mclean)
Creep (Radiohead)
Running You Down (Original)

I Can't Stay (Original)
I Need you (Original)
I Remember (you) (Original - named before discovering Damiens song)
Never Leave (Original)
We're Not In Love (Original)
Where's The Pain? (Original)
With You (Original)

These aren't in order, I'm just trying to get everything I could do written down. Another Potential is Ride On, by Christy Moore, but I can't find the song anywhere to learn the melody for the verses.

Any suggestions or ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Ben.

Well some suggestions along the lines of what you mentioned...

Stereophonics - Just Looking/Billy Davey's Daughter
Bell X1 - Rocky Took A Lover/Slowset
Radiohead - Last Flowers Til the Hospital/Karma Police
Tom McRae - Silent Boulevard/Boy With The Bubblegun
Del Amitri - Tell Her
Counting Crows - Kid Things

They're just some of the things I'd like to cover...you'll probably dismiss them all

mate! i know how to play ride on by christie moore! do u have guitar pro4? if not, i can just tab it normally?

i don't know how good a guitarist you are, because it's actually 2 guitars playing, so ur fingers will handle the picking and ur thumbs will have to deal with the lead line. unless also of course u use a loop pedal. either way i'm sure u could work out a version to play from the tab .

Thanks closing doors, haven't heard a lot of them, have to give them a listen.

Penguinboy, thanks for the offer, i completely forgot about guitar pro, i just found a tab for it on mysongbook. The moment i pressed play and it hit the verse i couldn't believe I'd forgotten the melody. tututut.

Any other song suggestions?

Lover, Should've Come Over - Jeff Buckley
Star Star/What Happens When The Heart Just Stops - The Frames. (That would be awsome, if you could medley them two!)
Still Selling Shoes - Bell X1
Wickid Games - Chris Isack
Apple Of My Eye - Damien Dempsey
Night Blindness - David Gray
The Professor ~ Babylon ~ Silly... ~ La Fille Danse - Damien Rice and David Gray! (lol! That would be class, sounds ace when Damien does it)
Any Dire Straits (Brothers in Arms, is ace)
Angel at My Table - The Frames!

Dontt know if there the kind of songs you want, but i would love to see someone cover them!

TIPS
====

1/when it gets to the chorus, i usually strum the rest of the chord with my thumb on the first beat of the bar.

2/don't rush the chords on the chorus. (bad habit of mine)

For some reason i can't work out how to attatch the GuitarPro4 file. i'll e-mail u it if u fancy.
