Kevin Carter is a difficult one I love the voicing he gets on that song with his non-standard tuning but I just play it in a way that’s not as good but it’s playable in standard tuning.
I used to play Honky Tonk Woman at every gig, and to start off with I'd have a guitar tuned to Open G, but I soon realised it was too much faff and playing it in standard made no difference whatsoever to anyone else in the room, the rest of the band included.
There's been a couple of songs over the years I've HAD to do in a different tuning - e.g. Tenerife Sea by Ed Sheeran has something odd like the G tuned down to E, or summat like that, it's easier to just tune down that one string than to try and play it in standard - but generally, I tend to stick to standard.
It's like most of these things, if you worry too much about replicating the record accurately, no-one will care, notice or thank you for it!
Absolutely fella!!
is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?
Most of our audience are female, aged from 18-28, and they honestly mostly don't want to hear absolutely up-to-the-minute chart stuff. That said, a lot of our covers are from the last 3-5 years, but it seems they need to be at least that old to be part of a collective experience.
Just to qualify .. i never meant to piss on dannys thread by my comment , ive done ALL these things to my detriment and the need at one point to pay the bills ... for the ones that it is of no consequence good on yer ! but it made me ill .... even my steely dan tribute foray , one if not my fave band turned sour after a short while ... which envokes the paraphrase "to thine own self be true " alternatively uncle morty would say " i will never play the Dane ... "
I always thought it was tapped until I saw DLR band play it and the guys played the wide stretch - Joey Holmes I think?
Anyway - our last couple of gigs have been:
Hammer to fall
hard to handle
why can`t this be love
by the way
love in an elevator
in these arms
hold the line
pride
go your own way
wanted dead or alive
i want it all
boys of summer
only thing that looks good on me
i believe in a thing called love
dude looks like a lady
jump
power of love
walk this way
under pressure
crazy train
final countdown
under the bridge
pour some sugar
livin on a prayer
I know it`s all cheese - but it`s fun to play! :-)
Love you set, done all those over the years and all of them have gone down well. Used to do loads of Leppard stuff along with Pour some sugar like Animal, Rock of ages, Hysteria, Photograph, Lets get rocked .... great fun to play

We did Photograph and Animal up until last year when the 2nd guitar player left - actually Animal is a song I really miss playing!

Where you guys based - love to come and see those? I keep angling for Just Like Paradise to go in, and I do miss playing Panama.
