I’ve been in garage bands, basement bands, dad bands, marching bands, jazz bands … even a wedding band (for one night). I have probably forgotten how to play more songs than I currently know, but I did try to capture the master playlist of songs I’ve performed in front of an audience of 1 or more. My high school years include a number of originals that maybe I’ll document elsewhere some day, but I feel like this is a list that should be documented on my personal site. This is somewhat in reverse chronological order based on the various bands I was a part of, and is probably missing more than a few.
