So we still need someone to sing AC/DC, no amount of bribery will persuade munckee jr to sing it.  I have also borrowed a bass this week to practice my parts.  I'm okay on Steppin Out.  At this point I cannot get near playing Saw Her Standing There as it is meant to be played.  I think my hands are too small : )  If I can't get it to speed I will have to play the rhythm on root  notes on the day and ask a real basser to record a version for the mixing afterwards. 

I can see if Jr fancies it if you like?

EDIT: Bass that is not vocals 

Tell him I will give him 5 English pounds if he does!  In cash!!

Well I've torn a callous on my best guitaring finger and it's killing me and I have a week to grow a new one.

This looks pretty close for 29 x The Pain: https://www.guitaretab.com/w/wildhearts/20881.html

As it says, the original is in Eb tuning, so we need to decide whether we do that or just play in standard.  As far as the parts go,  Ginger plays the intro riff and I think mainly sticks to open chords with the odd A7 and Bm thrown in, while CJ just plays power chords.  There are a couple of other little riffs which I could probably tab out if you like, but that's pretty much it.  (The part marked as Ritch's End is the extended ending which we're not doing.)

So, I'll do Ginger's part and leave grappagreen to do CJ's, if that's OK?

I’m cool with that..

Thirded, actually (as it saves me having to rip some fairly fresh strings off and put some 10s on!)

No one really plays in Eb tuning do they, I thought that was an urban myth : )

Slightly off topic @channel, but it occurs to me that the Jam session is also a good opportunity to satisfy GAS pangs in a convenient way. 

If anyone is interested in the Jet City Custom 22 head that I have here, then let me know and I'll bring it along. for no obligation trials and giggles 

I'm also likely to advertise a <2-year-old Fender Blues Deluxe in tweed finish  at some point if anyone might be interested in trying that out too. 

Maybe others can add their current FS and WTBs in here (or open a new thread if there's much demand)...?

I will be bringing my 68 custom princeton which I'm considering selling at some point soonish.

I’m thinking of letting go of my early 90’s Japanese HSS Squier Strat if anyone is interested?
