Electric or acoustic, read off the Kinda Due tab

809 songs on record. 347 sit in Kinda Due today. Here is which of them want an amp, and which songs outside the tab belong in the same pile.

347Kinda due
31Due because the rig came down
142Electric-first, still waiting
87Electric, not on the tab at all

How each column was decided

Two different kinds of claim sit on this page, and they are kept apart.

Measured. The stream log labels its own nights. Four of the 98 streams are the garage run, three of them titled Electric:

106 of 3,874 plays on record happened on those four nights, so a song being garage-only is weak on its own at that sample size. What the log does prove is which songs were played with the electric rig up, and that is the garage badge wherever it appears below.

Judged. Everything in the second and third sections is my call on the song, which means a distorted riff, a named electric tone, a solo that carries the arrangement, or a part the acoustic duo flattens. Call those read-and-argue, not measured.

1. Due because the rig came downmeasured, 31 songs

These are in Kinda Due and were played in the garage sessions. Every one of them sits at 15 to 28 days, which is the gap since the garage run ended on 5 October. They are not cold, they are stranded. Taking them acoustic is the wrong repair; they come back when the amps come back.

2. Electric-first and still waitingjudged, 142 songs

In Kinda Due, no garage play on record, and the song wants an amp. Ordered by how much is riding on it, which is play count against how long it has been sitting. The top of this list is where a garage night pays for itself.

3. Electric, and not on the tab at alljudged, 87 songs

Kinda Due needs two plays and a last date inside the record. A song last played before the video record begins on 2026-06-02 never qualifies, so the heavy end of the catalog is invisible there. The Sabbath block, the AC/DC block, Rush YYZ and Ozzy's I Don't Know all sit in that hole. This is the answer to what is missing from the list.

4. Leave these on the acousticjudged, 50 songs

The counter-list, so section 2 does not get read as the whole tab. These are in Kinda Due and the acoustic duo arrangement is the right one. Pixies at 142 days and Cyndi Lauper at 138 are the two oldest songs in the tab, and both of them are fine unplugged.
