Water Rats April 19 - Song List

@grappagreen - do you just want me to play the chords for Times like these? I’m not sure what part the lead you are playing is, but I’m assuming that’s covering intro and the rhythmic fills?

@Jonathangus - I assume we aren’t doing the extended ending on 29 x ? It will be difficult to get the timing right, and I’ll laugh trying to sing the lyrics .

Ooh, good question.  This is the version I know best:

(And, while we're talking about keys, are we doing it in Eb tuning?)

Ah Ok - I was listening to the version on "The Best of the Wildhearts" which has another 30 secs on the end. Will learn the version above.

@munckee - suggest you get a spotify playlist together to avoid these sort of issues. Usually the playlist is the version (and key) that everyone learns.

My version of 'Best of the Wildhearts' has the version I posted.  Odd.

Any chance of a volunteer to put a spotify list together?  I'm struggling for time a bit through to next week at least.

Thanks, though that has the version of “29 X the pain” with the stupid ending - @jonathangus can you find the correct version on Spotify?

soma1975

I've literally never heard that song before in my life so yeah someone else will have to point me to the right one.

'No' would seem to be the answer to that one.  All the non-live versions have the extended ending.  Best bet is probably the YouTube I posted above.  Which also has the (superior, IMO) original lyrics.

As an aside anyone ever wake and suddenly can't play the guitar anymore? Like everything I play sounds shit. Usually I'd solve this by buying a pedal but I've just this week put the finishing touches to my new pedalboard. 

Luckily I haven't signed up to play leads on two of the most famous songs in classic rock/blues. ffs... 

I'm now just doing all the old basic exercises to make my hands work again.

Just turn your volume down a bit or add more gain.

Don't panic, I am playing lead on Hey Joe and am bound to fuck up one of the most iconic solos known to man! And.. I have never solo'd in a public place before

I fucked up comfortably numb last time and I was playing rhythm!

I'm sure it will be fine, it's just i feel like my playing is worse than it was a month ago before i actually started to learn the song(s).

Fuengi

I shut my left hand in the shower door last night and still can't feel my first three fingers. 

Don't worry, you're in incredibly inept company

Problem is you are assuming the others will be in time. Very dangerous.
