My buddy is a songwriter and is working on an album right now. He was showing me the lyrics and I could almost map which songs were about who.

Half the album is sad bastard and the other half is just how certain relationships sucked.

I'm really looking forward to it. I run sound from time to time at a place where one of his exes works and I really want to queue it up between sets.

I really want to queue it up between sets.

I hate to be that guy, but since it appears to be related to your gig, I feel like it might be beneficial for you... The word is "cue" in this case.

I guess "queue" gets the point across though. And maybe "a queue of songs" is a valid descriptor.

M-W defines the verb forms of cue as queue. It seems like in historical use, cueing up media is typical, but queuing songs isn’t wrong.

Well there ya go... Makes sense.

Don't be afraid to be that guy. You're right, and I wrote it incorrectly. I actually appreciate the gentle correction.

I should have written "I want to add it to the song queue between sets".
