    @bobblehat do you want to play rhythm/2nd guitar on Keep Your Hands to yourself, as well as Vocals. You did last time.
    You could take a solo if you want to as well.

    Yes, I'll play rhythm .I'll leave the solos to you young shredders  ;)

    @Neilybob I'll put you down for those at the next update.

    @mart should I take you off Fortunate Son and substitute @Neilybob to give you a break? Or, if you want to play it as well, you could each play bass on separate run throughs.
    Happy to do either tbh.  
    It makes sense for me to drop that one, but I don't mind either way. 

    When we've got a fixed list of songs and line-ups, we can shuffle the order to make sure everybody gets some breaks.

    Yes, at the moment the focus is on finding songs with a full line-up. But we need to check people get breaks because the load is heavier on Vocals, Drums and Bass.

    Also, the list isn't intended to be too proscriptive, but just intended to create some level of organisation and a framework to build on. Last time things flexed and adapted on the day and @Brocco ran things really well.

    It's not a competition.

    Amongst all this techy modelly stuff, I'll bring my '79 JMP and a 1x12.

    And I fancy a proper go on an SG, if anyone fancies bringing one.
    I have a 2004 SG Standard I can bring, in D standard with 11s, stock except for 500k volume pots and 50s wiring

    Or a 2016 SG Faded with A4 PAFs and a Bigsby in E standard with 10s, again 500k pots 50s wiring

    Haven't looked at the song list yet sorry. Been a hectic few weeks with festivals and work
    Ooh, decisions, decisions.

    The Faded sounds interesting.

    The latest list is below.

    I've put @Vibetronic and me down as joint lead on Keep Your Hands To Yourself, as there are a couple of solos. But we could do separate run throughs if that's what's wanted on the day.

    @Neilybob replaces @mart on bass for Fortunate Son.
    @Neilybob down for bass on Tush, which means we just need a drummer for a full line-up.

    @mart on bass means Wishing Well now has a full line-up.  

    Blue fill = full lineup. So we can do the song.
    Amber fill = Available role. Good to have, but not essential
    Red fill = Role needed to allow the song to be played.

    @spark240 could you have a look at the latest list (a couple of posts back) and see where you can fill roles. And, if you want to, also add song suggestions of your own.

    That sounds interesting.  Like me some P90s.  I mostly play my LP Special, but it's a heavy bugger - 9lb, so that's full-fat LP weight - and I know about it after a couple of hours' rehearsal.

  • @Jonathangus, I just wondered, are you OK to sing Under The Bridge, which you did last time? If so, we've got another song with a full line-up.

    Yeah, I can do some 'singing'.  Go on, then.

    Here's an update.

    @Jonathangus added for volcals on Under The Bridge, which adds another song with a full line-up.

    Blue fill = full lineup. So we can do the song.
    Amber fill = Available role. Good to have, but not essential
    Red fill = Role needed to allow the song to be played.

    I've worked through a few more songs this evening, so I'd be happy to do bass on Strange brew and You really got me. Does anyone remember who sang that when we last did it?

    @TimmyO would be nice to see you....

    Question for @roberty - it looks like there could be 14/15 of us, how cosy will that make things at Firebird?  Should we put the heat on Factory as we know the large room there can easily accomodate us?
