... the newcomers don’t think “ oh shit, everyone’s better than me” 

Must be just me, then. I want other players to be better than me otherwise I get complacent and lazy.

mrkb said:
start with something simple and, maybe, slightly shambolic

I can do that. Gi's a job!

I don't mind starting from cold so long as everyone else can tolerate a few clams. The rest of the time, I would prefer to be doing a bass version of Alnico's workshop idea.

is there a list/google sheet of what’s proposed so far?

There is a list. It resides in an Excel spreadsheet in my Mac. At present, to look at the spreadsheet for very long risks snow blindness.

I do not subscribe to Google. Therefore, I cannot provide a Google sheet.

get it to someone who can - getting folk collaborating/feeling like they are part of things is how these things work best :-)

or:
All right now
Free (Fire and Water album version)
Lead guitar or bass
No vocals, I cannot sing this
A

I can probably sing that.

Could also add Born to Be Wild - I can sing and do a simplified rhythm part (simplified cos I'm busy singing lol)

Okay.

Does anybody want to host the Song List as a Google Sheet? I would prefer that a willing person volunteered than impose on @mrkb ;without asking first.

I’m happy to stick it on googlesheets and keep it updated. Once the days songs have been agreed I’ll create a Spotify playlist and link that as well.

will PM you tonight.

Funkfingers

Thank you, Mark. 

I can send the Excel spreadsheet as an .xlxs e-mail attachment.

OK, current song suggestions listed here:-

Spotify playlist of suggestions:-

Are there any that have been suggested so far that are missing?

Funkfingers

PM'd you about that.

Vibetronic

I'm going to suggest...Get the Funk Out by Extreme (guitar, in G) and Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth (guitar, E). And no I can't sing Something simpler - You Really Got Me (the VH version in A). Do I need to stick those in the spreadsheet?

Happy to help out on guitar/bass for anyone else on whatever too   @mrkb for info!

roberty

@Vibetronic I'm up for doing the Megadeth one on bass

As of 21:30 yesterday, the song list became available as a Google Sheet.

It is hosted by Mark Blagdon. Only he can grant editing permission.

Just to complicate matters, as thread starter, I still receive all of the Discussion posting notifications. To draw the attention of Mark to your song list nominations, I suggest that you tag him in this Discussion. That way, it should be self-evident to him when song list edits are required.

Go for it.

TimmyO

Anyone can turn on notification and you should be able to turn them off

Only globally. I cannot select individual Discussions.

Vibetronic
