Do we not have anyone willing to have a go at the bass for Cupid's Dead?

Bueller? Bueller?

Not at the moment.

I'll have a listen and see if it is a goer - my problem at the moment is time to spend learning anything to a half decent standard!

Oi oi. 

Guitar slots look filled up but I used to sing lead vocal too so anything that doesn't have a vocal I can take on.

Presume these are all in original recorded key? 

@Bridgehouse look /\ a willing vocalist.

@TimmyO  

Spotted

I shall update tonight if there are no more willing volunteers

Legionreturns

If @TimmyO  wants to sing at least one rendition of the songs I'm repeating then I'd be able to concentrate better on doing the guitar playing justice! I've offered on the other thread to sing a couple of others though

The organisation of this is immense, great work guys!
Is someone going to do some filming and post it up here for those of us that can't make it?

Yes.
To reiterate that point though we will only film with permission and not everyone wants that. 
We've fully understood this issue already so no one who's going needs to worry about that. 

To answer the question here, yes, we're hoping there'll be some good footage to post here afterwards for those who couldn't go from those who wanted to or didn't mind being filmed.

Some filming yes, but not everything, and only if agreed by everyone playing at the time. The idea was to give some guys good experience of playing in a band, and they're nervous enough...so also have a camera pointing at them can add to that pressure.

.......and thank you.
The majority of the organisation and skill is down to @Bridgehouse ;;

Without involvement from @TTony we wouldn't have such a Streamlined song list and we're also very grateful to @horse and @octatonic for being the soldiers for us on the day and propping all this up and to @bigjon and @digitalscream for offering the workshop classes.
What started as a spark of an idea has grown naturally based on interest and enthusiasm and that's the best way for any project to develop. 

I think on the day we'll have a lot to be proud of as a community.

I could do bass for Cupid's Dead and I won't be doing the workshops at the time because you'll be co-leading the workshops with me! I think it was marked as N/A rather than left blank because you had said you fancied including the bass sound from your guitar-playing via electronic trickery, Royal Blood style. If that option no longer appeals, stick me down for bass on that.

When it has been decided when the workshops are going to run, I will be able to volunteer vocals on those songs which are currently vocal-less and which do not clash with the workshops.

@digitalscream @Bridgehouse ;

You have a choice actually @bigjon ;

You could either wait till the song list is finalised and then pick a time you aren't playing/singing to run them, or you could run them at 17.45 during the last bit of the day. Or, of course, a combination of both!

@digitalscream @Bridgehouse ;

Ah, I see - well, the trickery option doesn't look too good at the moment, so your help in providing the rumbles would be much appreciated

Bridgehouse

I will do a general update tonight and allocate out some more vocals, fill the bass slot and tidy up. We should have enough volunteers to fill the gaps.

Blimey, @octatonic is going to have to take his food and water intravenously on the day...

...and maybe have a little bucket behind him for comfort breaks

I'm secretly hoping someone else fancies a couple of drumming outings to give him a proper break...

Just to emphasise, I will play whatever wherever whenever I'm asked, so I don't view this choice as final. However, my personal strong preference would be for the 17.45 option, so as not to pull people way from the performances and so as to maximise the audience of encouragers and supporters for the players to have their moments of glory in the spotlight.

Not a problem. I will pencil that in for now.

I play about the much most days- don't worry I'll be fine.
I'm not a heavy hitter so I don't tire that easily.

Bass now all accounted for.

Vocals accounted for - but we have a big ask for @bigjon - if anyone else would like to ease the burden on him and take a few onboard then please do let me know. 

Ta!

Hi @Bridgehouse as offered in the other thread at one point I don't mind doing one or two more vocals.

Not promising I can sing mind you, but I'm going to be hanging around the stage cheering the team on as much as possible so happy to get involved

Nervously anticipating the day
