set list - Eid - freaking out here. HELP.

okay so I need to run my set list past you all.

I'm doing two sets tomorrow night to celebrate Eid for an Egyptian crowd - he said he wants - Egyptian Pop but in the same breath - Om Kalthoum, songs everyone knows.  I ran a couple artist past him... so Amr Diab & Hakim are on my list  & drum solo... I usually do Lebanese crowds and I'm more than a little nervous for some reason.  Must be because I've mostly done retirement homes and medieval fairs this year.

So I've picked
First set
Alf Leyla Wa leyla - (I've got a pop version)
Habibi Habibi (Carmine T. Guida - drum solo)
Oulooloo - for a touch of classic
Nour El Ein - to get everyone up dancing.

Second set
Layali - by Djinn  for the drum solo
Azziza - for the touch of classic

And I can't decide between Hakim's  El Salam or Talakik
Maybe Amr Diab Ma'ak Bartaah to open the second set  - but they I should probably cut Nour El Ein from the first set?

and I was thinking maybe Heli Mely  to close out the set?   

HELP!!!!
