I thought it might be fun to create a place where we could post our own setlists--i.e., put together a hypothetical concert (in whatever style, and of whatever synths you might choose) and plan out the songs for it.
I decided to put together a Mirai-style setlist. You can see it below. (You may want to click the arrow to open it in a new tab and zoom in. Also, the links to the songs are clickable!)
In this setlist, the Day 1 set is a baseline, whose songs are carried over to Days 2 and 3 unless those days provide an alternative song. Alternative songs are only present on the days for which they are listed.
For my own setlist, I tried to pursue a few goals:
1. Prioritize usage of songs that hadn't been in a concert before/hadn't been in a concert often.
2. Create a consistent rise/fall of energy--i.e., get people excited, then give them an opportunity to rest before turning up the energy again.
3. Create a coherent flow in terms of the singers on stage. (I've always personally thought it was cool when a performer could stay on-stage between songs, rather than appearing/disappearing for each one.)
4. Try to produce a coherent flow of genre/vibe between songs--not that it will stay the same, but that the transitions will feel smooth, unless a sudden change is desired.
What do you think? Love/hate it? Have a favorite day?
Feel free to post your own setlists, too!

Your idea to include the BGM songs was neat, too--I wouldn't have thought to plan those out.
