What is the purpose of the 311 setlist site? The purpose of this site is to maintain a comprehensive listing of the songs played each night, in each city where 311 performs. With the assistance of those in attendance and 311 Management, this site is updated frequently with submissions from each show. How can I submit a setlist? It's a good idea to take a pen and small note card to the show in order to jot down the songs as they are played live. Please do your best to get the setlist down in ORDER, as we're striving for 100% setlist accuracy. Also, take note of any occurrence that stands out at the show which makes it unique. Examples may include: a stage dive by Nick, extended song intros, stage chatter, song dedications and equipment changes or difficulties. Please be sure to make note of approximately when the random event takes place. As soon as possible, email the setlist from the show to me with your name so that you can be thanked (if no name is given I will use your email address). Please be sure to include the date/venue/city in the subject line when submitting the setlist. How long does it usually take before a setlist is posted? Generally, setlists are posted to the site within 48-hours of when the show takes place. If the setlist has not been posted within the 48-hour period, it usually means that one has not been received or I am waiting for further confirmation on details. Sometimes, setlists will be posted as early as the end of the show! Why does the stage setlist sometimes differ from the actual setlist? Often, 311 will choose to play songs that are not on the stage setlists due to a last minute change, dedication, crowd request, or simply because they get the urge. How does 311 choose songs for each setlist? There is no specific method. Each night, the band puts together a list of songs they feel like playing. If you have looked at the tour stats, you can tell they like to mix things up. They consistently perform rare songs to keep things fresh. If they are touring in support of a recently released album, the setlist contains a higher concentration of songs from that album. Who are you? My name is Ryan Harris and I live in Kansas. I'm 26-years old, and I love to play guitar, appreciate music and travel. My day job is working as a consultant for The Hartford Financial Services Company. I'm basically a huge 311 fan like all of you with a pretty sweet gig. Who else is involved in the 311 setlist website? The setlist site was created in 1999, by Mike Ganezer from NYC. He formed a partnership with 311 Management (Peter Raspler) to receive stage setlists from every show. In 2002-2003, Mike turned the site over to me because I was a loyal and detailed setlist submitter. I've since enlisted the help of many other dedicated 311 fans like Megan McTigue, Christine Wong and Joseph Jones. The site also receives the occasional graphical aestetic from Daniel Patterson. Will you please tell 311 to come to (location) or can you have them play (song name)? No, I'm not directly involved in where 311 schedules performances or what songs they put on the setlist. If you want 311 to come to your town or play your favorite song, try making a request using the 311 BB. I emailed you a setlist, but I don't see my name under the "thanks to" list. If you have submitted a setlist after the "final" version has been uploaded, you likely won't receive credit. Please submit setlists as quickly after the show takes place as possible to ensure that your name gets added to the "thanks to" section. I noticed an error, can I email you a correction? Yes, please be sure to include specific information along with the date of the show. Keep in mind that everyone remembers events slightly different, so even if you're sure of an occurrence, another person's recollection may differ. I take the consensus opinion from all the information received to determine accuracy. How can I contact you? All setlists and correspondence should be sent to RyHex311miT@aol.com. |
