I have to be in india for work for a week in May 

Actually Tony, my team is now in Mumbai, not Delhi. A major improvement. It's still utterly bonkers (and sodding hot) but I look forward to it.

Do you know when you'll know the date @McToot?  It'd be good to have you there.

Pretty soon. Best to get it all sorted sooner rather than later. I'll revert this week.

Water Rat looks good @poopot.

Whatever happens, I'm in. @poopot ;

Looking at the calendar, the 12th or the 19th are the only Saturdays that are not bank holibobs...

Bridgehouse

Ok, looks like it’s a go-er and we have a couple of willing volunteers to help me out.

We will do some work in the background and then start a proper logistics and signing up thread. 

Let the Pretty Vacant/Beat It challenge begin

Bridgehouse

Oh, and I might actually learn/try the bass lines before I turn up to this one *blush*

Also worth remembering that All right now has a mini bass solo ...just in case you didn't know

Yeah. And I know it. And it got to it and 

a) I completely lost where we were
b) fucking missed it

We are doing it at the next Jam, and I am remembering it... grrrrr

There's a visual clue usually... All the other guitarists stop playing and the drummer keeps playing the same bar over and over again whilst looking at you

Look, I was tired. It was the last chunk of songs and I was spent by then. 

I did wonder why Differs was on his own and everyone else was looking at me. To be fair, us bass players never get any attention. 

Bridgehouse

Oh, and I’d just learned Come Together on the fly...

That's a bit subtle for a bassist.

I will come armed with a narrow piece of pvc piping and a bag of frozen peas. When one of those little green spheres of loveliness pings you on the forehead, play the solo.

If the date suits me, I don't mind having a go at bass for one or two songs if @bridgehouse wants a break.

He gets a break during All Right Now.

Apparently

The bass solo in All Right Now is overrated.

I prefer the song without.

HAL9000

Definitely Interested in turning up if shifts allow.

Flanging_Fred

I'd be interested in coming if commitments allow. 

@McToot the dodgy Crawley pub (The Black Dog) in now a Turkish restaurant so unlikely to be a viable venue!

If other venues come up blank then I might be able to have a chat with a fellow muso about the availability of the studios in the Hawth theatre in Crawley. I know they've run similar type jams there before.
