Set List is an open book with any genre that comes along. Set List is an open visual with any YouTube video that comes along. I may not always prefer a genre, artist, or song but I value the genre, artist, or song on Set List because there may be one reader who does.
Poison is not necessarily my cup of tea but the band and their impressive success shows worth of being noted on Set List where as always -
