If we need to use a bit of contingency time then that's fine.
Hard to handle is a perfect example of that.
So there are two guitarists on stage and both don't want to play the lead.
Fine, no problem, one of us will and we'll sit back in the mix until you need us.
THAT was the whole floating thing in its essence HOWEVER if I or anyone else happy to do this is not needed, NO Problem. I'll sit and watch.
That ok?
To answer one of your questions directly, yes we can work out who plays lead and rhythm, no problem.
I'll sort that out over the next week.
Yes, we'll have a running order and some kind of itinerary for the day and yes I agree with your example. It won't be like that and in this next week, we'll start tightening things up a bit.
I think It's fair to say that although we said: "If a song is popular we don't mind playing it more than once....."
Can we agree that 3 times is the limit so now please no one else Pick Learning to Fly?
It's just a case of being fair now. Us being fair to you and you being fair to everyone else.
Those who haven't got their name down for a song or don't want to, if that's how you want to play the day that's cool but just remember that if you suddenly feel like doing something and it's not going to fit in or work out, but by all means play it by ear if you want to.
We all understand a lack of practice time!
No, Let's not drop 'Midnight Hour'.
@hywelg makes a good point although so does @TTony in that it's not going to have a horns section.........we do however have the mighty @horse and his keyboard.
Pete........can it be done?
If the answer is yes and that one hasn't been subscribed yet, I'll take that one. It's an old favourite. I *think* I can sing it too.
If Pete can cover SOME of the gaps that no horns will leave in the sound, I can craft something to go with it and make it sound ok - goodish.
We'll use that to work out how many gaps need filling in.
Please everyone provide this info asap so we can sort this out for YOU.
Ta.

Also, when I do Midnight Hour in the three-piece version of my band, I do the horn parts on guitar! :-)
@TTony @Alnico @digitalscream
I've put you down for your preferred 5.
If we put you down for everything, you'll not have the space to run all the workshops. Perhaps if we check in the final week before the jam to see if we've got any other critical gaps in the bassing and guitaring and vocaling that we'd need to slot you into so that we can play the song sensibly, but only do that by exception so that we don't take you away from the workshop sessions?
Tony makes a very good point about the workshops and keeping you away from them but we will balance it all on the day.
Lee, I think that's probably a good idea. We're not going to have that many people who can play it anyway.
Thanks for piping up on that one, it's removing weight we don't need to carry.
If I'm not otherwise busy, which the idea is that I'm not,.......I would LOVE to be asked to play lead on that song.

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youEbay mark7777_1
I'd forgotten that but you are right and it's yours to do, I'm honestly cool about the whole thing.
I'm not sure about LTF either but if you don't want to do that, That's perfectly fine also.

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youThese are small alterations and easily sorted out.
Thanks for letting us know both of you.
If EVERYONE can look at what Tony has done with the spreadsheet and make sure you're down for the right songs, that would be very useful.
Over the next few weeks we will be pulling all this together and drawing up a running order and itinerary so getting the details ironed out now will be very useful for us.
Thanks everyone.
're ability int -
Playing lead please and happy to drop out of midnight hour and mustang Sally if needed.
Playing bass on a lot of tracks so if someone wants some ask well see what we can do
