ok -
Your favourite indie band have asked you to play 5 songs to warm up the crowd before their big dublin show. what do you play? (you can be as willfully obscure as you like - as long as the crowd can react without knowing the songs!)
1 love will tear us apart - Joy division
2 stone roses - i am the resurection
3 bow wow wow - c30 c60 c90
4 i bet that you look good on the dancefloor - Arctic monkeys
5 radiohead - idiotheque
crowd ->

Nice choice
Right, warm up to an Indie gig (or for the benefit of Google: indie indie, indie britney spears, indie, mp3, indie gig), probably clear the floor but...
1. 4th of July - Galaxie 500 (doesn't get any indier)
2. 16 Tons - Bo Diddley
3. Solex All Licketysplit - Solex
4. Kiss and Make Up - Saint Etienne
5. Kids Rock - Loo and Placido (Queen "we will rock you" reggae with kids vocals mashup thingy)
indie schmindie, I think I've hit the google motherlode!

WITHOUT knowing the songs? Surely, that makes your own selections redundant? Or am I just being dumb?
