@TimmyO My £8 belongs in TheFretBoard funds rather than my pocket

Thanks Roland,
Very good of you man.

Sorry to hear that @ ;

OK this is going to be a bit of a logistical juggle - I'd just agreed to a reunion do on the 1st in London, so I'll need to sort a way to get from there to Leicester, then Leicester back to Wiltshire.

I'll sort something out...

Drive from Wilts to somewhere N of London where you can leave your car and get train into town.

Reunion.

Get train back to car, drive to Leics.

Jam.

Drive home.


Done!  Be good to see you again @Timmyo.  What do you fancy playing??

Is there a song list somewhere for this? I'm interested to see whats going to be played...just to get an idea of what is likely for the Darn Sarfer......which you can guarantee will be on my working weekend!....fingers crossed it's not!

Might it be in the "song suggestions" thread?

It's also stickied at the top of the "Recent Discussions" view (rather than the "by Section" view) of the forum, as is this thread.

Good call - have found a friend of a friend who says I can park at theirs :-)

After much swearing, pulling of hair and general frustrated can kicking, I have produced running order V1.0

It's subject to comment, change, the weather, all sorts really.

Some comments:

- I have tried to get things as equally spaced for everyone so there isn't a mad lot of changes and there are, where possible, similar groups up for a while
- I have put breaks in (for poor old @Octatonic and @Horse)
- Repeats are split for the simple reason that it helps to break things up and it means beginners don't get intimidated by "I'm never going to be that good" straight after the last go through

There are quite a lot of vacant vocal spots. Please please please please have a look at the songs you are doing and if you could bear to bang out a rough vocal then please do say. If we get a couple of vocalists for the less confident, then even better!!

Once we have all kicked tyres, I will insert it into one of the early posts in this thread and the songs thread so we know where we are with it!!

I can probably bang out a couple more sets of vocals bud. My only request is that if I'm playing and singing, that I'm not the only one playing my guitar part...I still find it quite hard to do both together and the vocal suffers a bit. I'm practicing hard so it'll be better by the day.

Things I could sing at a push, although it might end up an octave lower than normal:

Fortunate Son
All right now
I'll have a crack at Midnight Hour and let you know.

Cheers for all your hard work guys

Will do - tho an "acoustic" column would fuck up my spreadsheet
