Also - especially if we're struggling for money - I think we should self-produce the recordings this time.  Get the stems off Bob and do it ourselves.  There's the Mixing Challenge on here, I think @poopot said he'd welcome any raw material for the challenge to work with.  Also maybe amongst us on here we could have a go at producing a few tracks.  I certainly could do a fair few at home.

Are there people attending that are actually fussed about being recorded?? Could this save money if we just "jammed" instead of being recorded?

AFAIK we've hired the whole of Bob's place (and Bob!) for the two days so I'd be surprised if it was any cheaper if it wasn't recorded.  I do like having an aural souvenir of the weekend.  But we could spend more time jamming in the studio room than we've done before and record that - an epic 20 minute jam recording would be awesome!  Maybe on the Sunday.

If it's an aural souvenir I'm getting, then crack on ;-)

I think of it more as an inspiration to improvement rather than a souvenir. Much like the scars that remind you not to cut things you're holding in your palm, or unblock an injection moulding machine without letting it cool ...

I'll be thinking of you all when I'm shivering in -30°C. Sasquatch in February will be balmy by comparison

I thought Legionreturns had been training up all the kids in Yorkshire with his YBTB thingy. Aren’t there hoarders of 10 year old virtuosos dying to join the old folk in a jam?

@Modellista I'd totally forgotten about Highway to Hell on the gig list.  Feel free to drop that if others don't step up - I'm only in there as a kind of generic "Yeah, I like AC/DC and most of the rhythm parts are manageable" position.

I think we had better drop that one.



^ I'm quite liking this amended gig list.  @mrkb can you sing Paranoid?  And we can shuffle at least three of those into the studio as well.  @Legionreturns do you fancy doing Rick in the studio?

Will check it out, I might be able to do it better than Ozzy, but won’t be able to belt it out like Ed.

Legionreturns

I think it's high time @darthed1981 mounted his white steed and rode in to rescue us from mediocre vocals...

I need to pay (and book hotel) but stick me down for one of the guitars on Brown Sugar!

Excellent, do you want to try the solo as well (make up the horns part)? 

mrkb

@Modellista - might as well drop wishing well, I can play drums on my own at home

promote Pretty Vacant to the studio list

Ok, Brown Sugar is staying but Wishing Well and Crossroads are gone.  Anyone want to shout for another song to be promoted from the gig list?

Legionreturns

Dancing in the moonlight?

I’m not really a guitar solo kind of player (if that makes any sense) I’d rather do what I did at Hertford yesterday ie rhythm and a few fills if possible ...

Legionreturns

Anyone clever enough to cobble together a quick flyer for the club to distribute? 

Ping me here or on Facebook for details that need to go on it

Ok, that’s fine with me, I’ll come prepared to wing a solo.

@Legionreturns If you do Dancing and no-one else is stepping up for vocals I'll add it the list for my teacher (oh yes, singing lessons have started here, too)

Totally geared up for this - was playing all night tonight!
