I recently did a 10-mile run in the city and there were a few bands playing along the race route, some better than others. While running, I thought to myself, "You know, that's really cool, and it really does get me pumped up."

With that, I decided on my next goal: get a band together to play at running events. As marathon season tends to be in the fall (but really can be at most times of the year), I guess that's my rough target: cobble together something by the fall.

I know a few people who can play bass and drums, and I'll try to put together some others to sing and do it for fun, but more importantly, I need a good set list. Any suggestions for covers to do at a race if we're performing on the sidelines?
