    The Boys Are Back In Town' is in A. The original is tuned down a semitone.  We could tune down, if it's a probelm for the vocals

    So are we in A or tuning down please ?
    Can I change the drum beat as well - the original is a git to play ;)
    Can you drum in Ab?

    Regarding The Boys Are Back In Town, it's one of the songs I've never sang live so couldn't honestly say which key suits me best but I reckon the fraction higher will be ok... we'll find out tomorrow I guess!

    see you all tomorrow  - I'm still trying to memorise the five sequences and get up to speed with the harmonised outro on The Boys Are Back, so hope your ears are ready for some disharmony!

    It seems like The Boys Are Back is going to make or break us! Does anyone know what room number we are in tomorrow? Just so I can find you all.

    @mrkb - I seem to recall you may be partial to backing vocals ?

    If so, there are two worders on the Hanging Around chorus - should you fancy…

    Nice one, thanks @mrkb and if anyone fancies doing backing vocals on anything I'm singing them that would be very welcome.

    Yep great job @Norm , fantastic vocals and some great harmonies too! Great to see everyone and catch up. I don't get out much at the moment, and this jam/meet-up is always something I look forward to - really relaxed and with a lovely bunch of people :)

    Echo everything that has already been said. It's so nice to be able to attend a jam which is focused on performing songs with a supportive and ego-free group.

    For anyone who might like to join us at the next jam, this is likely to be arranged for early Autumn.

    I absolutely loved that today guys. Pleasure to sing with such a fine and talented group. Would love to do it again if you'll have me. So many highlights, I really enjoyed Rocks actually but we might need to come down a notch on Fortunate Son!
