The second weekend of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival is now in the books and we have set lists from four veteran artists who played.

Friday saw Widespread Panic play a set that was all over the map ranging from their earliest songs through to their 2010 album Dirty Side Down and a number of tunes that have not made it on their studio or live sets.

Old Neighborhood (from Night of Joy, 2004)
North (from Dirty Side Down, 2010)
Street Dogs for Breakfast
Disco (from Mud Island ’97, 2009)
Greta (from Bombs & Butterflies, 1997)

On Saturday, No Doubt took the stage with a very hits laden set, moving away from their best known songs only for Magic’s in the Makeup, a track from 2000’s Return to Saturn and a couple of tracks from their last album, 2012’s Push and Shove.

Closing day saw two icons from different eras take the stage. Jerry Lee Lewis only played seven songs for his NOLA set but they were some of the highlights of his very long career, touching on both his rock roots and his country ventures in the 1970’s.

No Headstone on My Grave (from The Session, Recorded Live in London With Great Artists, 1973)
Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On (single, 1957)
Roll Over Beethoven (from Together with Linda Gail Lewis, 1970)

You Win Again (single, 1957)
Drinkin’ Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee (from The Session, Recorded Live in London With Great Artists, 1973)
Great Balls of Fire (single, 1957)

Later, Elton John played what was essentially an abridged version of his regular show to fit in with festival times.

Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding (from Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, 1973)
Bennie and the Jets (from Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, 1973)
Candle in the Wind (from Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, 1973)
