Setlists...
The thing I'm mostly jealous of really pro bands is that they have a set list and they stick to it. They don't deviate except on rare occasions and that's that.
I've always had set lists, but often someone in the group gets cute and wants to switch it around based on how they feel the audience is reacting.
In my experience this has rarely helped improve a show and simply never worth the confusion it can cause the band and also the downtime that it creates between songs.
Do you have any characteristics of really pro-bands that you wished your group would take on?
