Steve will almost certainly play the following.......

REDCOAT IS A MEAN MEAN COLOUR
THE COAST OF BOGNOR
THE LIGHTHOUSE (OUT THERE, LOOK IF ITS NOT TOO FOGGY)
JOURNEYS END (OF THE PIER)
STAR FOR A WEEKEND (AT BUTLINS)
THIS OLD MAN (IN A BATHCHAIR)
AUDIENCE WITH THE MANAGER
MY ONLY ICE CREAM
MR SOFTEE
MR WAFFLES
TRUE LOVE WILL FIND YOU(BEHIND THE BIKESHED)
ALL THE CAMPERS ARE HUNGRY
MAKE ME SMILE (AND FIX THE PLUMBING IN CHALET NO.78)
BED IN THE CORNER (OF CHALET 237)
HAPPY HOUR (HOUSEMARTINS COVER)
HEARTBREAK HOTEL(ELVIS COVER)
HERE COMES THE SUN (FOLLOWED BY PROLONGED SHOWERS)
I WISH IT WOULD RAIN (SPEAKS FOR ITSELF)
AMONGST OTHERS....ENJOY B)

Here is the song set from Isle of Wight 2004:

1.: Here Comes the Sun
2.: Mr Soft
3.: Judy Teen
4.: Sling It!
5.: A Friend For Life
6.: Riding The Waves
7.: Sebastian
8.: Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)

Mr. Raffles... AWESOME:

I dare say something from Stranger Comes to Town would be on it. I'd hope. Good stuff there.

I'm sorry I questioned you being a fan, it's just how you said this "But because he hasn't had quite as many hits as the others like Brotherhood of Man or Mud will he do some of other people's songs do you think to be on stage for longer?" Mea Culpa if you really like Steve and I'm just misunderstanding, but Steve's music can be heard everywhere and in plenty of films, both in England and over here. I mean, I'm a music nerd and I've never heard of Brotherhood of Man. And after research it looks like they had...one hit. From Eurovision.

Hope any of that helped.

Mr. Waffles. Oh lord. I was going to name any cat/dog I eventually got Mr. Raffles, but ffff Mr. Waffles just has me crying with laughter just thinking about anyone named that. You slay me.

The thing is Ana a lot of the old british humour in those song titles may be lost on you, e.g.MR SOFTEE IS AN ICE CREAM COMPANY THAT USED TO COME ALONG EVERY STREET IN THE COUNTRY BACK IN THE SEVENTIES/EIGHTIES.
Also Butlins,until recently,had a reputation for very cheap,dodgy,by the seaside holidays for families,but apparently has now gone upmarket(ish).
anyway your cat/dog should now be called MR WAFFLES,I insist.!! :laugh:
