Emp. the more you talk about him, the more of a bell end he seems.

Can't you sing them?

No thanks.  I'm already the only guitarist - I have to learn solos, play rhythm and stop the drummer from fucking up the settings on the mixer, my voice isn't suited for lead vocals (it doesn't have the power needed - I'm far better with harmonies), plus I'm a big girl when it comes to playing live.  If I could play behind a Marshall stack I would ! - There's no way I'm standing centre-stage and being a one-man-band with accompaniments.   Plus - I'm a bespectacled 50yr old man with a pot belly.  He's half my age, athletic and good looking.  If you want young women jiggling cleavages in the front row, he's the singer.  If you want a row of sagging, dyed blond divorcees with varicose veins and arthritis, I'm yer man.

*Sigh*

Bellycaster

Dr Feelgood - Milk and Alcohol

Queen - We Will Rock You (Live Heavy Version)

Ramones - Sheena

Tom Petty - Running Down a Dream

Kinks - ??????????? take your pick

Slade - Feel the Noize

Sweet - ???????????? take your pick

Georgia Satellites - Battleship Chains.

Although the trouble with these is, everyone in the audience will have to be at least 50 to recognize them.

So Roll Over Lay Down's presumably a none-starter then?

That song's not about sex.

I didn't actually think it was 'about' anything, if I'm honest.

I was just going for a cheap laugh.

the best kind.

Emp_Fab on none of these songs do you have to learn a solo - blues scale widdle in the appropriate key ( all key sigs in large letters on the set list just in case) is what is required.

Probably need a blues standard in there - Hoochie Coochie Man, I just wanna make love to you, sing if you're glad to be gay,etc.

If all else fails: Wipeout with tuneless widdly solo in the middle. People love Wipeout. Na nana na na na ner na na...

Oh, sure

I saw an interview with Mr Rossi - he says it's about getting his wife to roll over and give him room when he comes to bed later than her. I like that.

Yet some people are so eager to dismiss popular music as facile....
