tFB south eastern jam session at Powerhouse Studios, Weybridge on Sat 25th May 2024 12-5pm.

Weybridge is nice and local, but work's a nightmare over the next couple of months so no joy - maybe see you on the next one for some gentle rhythm parts?
If I had been coming I'd have suggested:
REM country feedback 
Warren Zevon - Werewolves of London 
Bowie - Heroes 
Stones - any of the Open G classics

No worries. Will keep you in mind for the next one.

Blimey so we have drums and bass? Amazing.

Anyone who wants to play about and enjoy a jam on 'Who Knows' with me here's a nice wankathon backing track. 

Just stays on a one chord the whole time and the main riff is simple as anything if you want to play it.

Thanks for doing all this Neil!

Happy to play rhythm on the Jimi tracks and Ramada Inn.

Still need to come up with a couple of songs myself... How many do you think we'll need/fit in?

I sent this a while back @soma1975 but I think it got lost in the mix. So yes mate, I'll play on the Jimi tracks

soma1975

Nice one mate. Should be fun.

I've put Sweet Home cos it's so ple chords.  I put Sweet Chikd cos ita simple chords and some of you might like the solo opportunut. It's also the same chords. I put Can't You See cos it's even simpler and the same 3 chords and the solo is pretty easy for many /most  people (amd it doesn't really matter what you play over it.
At least one of them ought to work
We need simple songs like this cos at the moment none of us is volunteering fpr anybody elses songs

We're gonna need circa 10 songs.
But with all that we are struggling without a drummer and a bassist.  Bass we might get away with if we all pick one and just play the chord notes - probably ok if someone has a bass to bring ?

But drums - that's the hard bit.  I could hit a snare drum roughly in time but add other drums and feet too and I might as well be rubbing my stomach and patting my head

Whatsour numbers now and cost with the dropouts ?  

We do have drummers from @TeleKinesis , @mrkb ; and @FastEddie son Harley. 

We are 17 strong so £135 / 17 = £7.95 each.

Definitely need more song suggestions.

We lost FastEddie and son (drummer). 

Down to 16 so £135 / 16 = £8.44 each.

I did capture this in song update. I'll also add this list to the OP front page. 

Any other song suggestions?

Sorry my dad is recovering from a stroke and I will be driving him through France on the 25th as he’s not allowed to drive.

I could play bass on the Jimi stuff. Been meaning to change strings on my bass for ages and this will give me a good reason too. 

soma1975

Excellent. They are both very simple but good fun. 

Neilybob

McToot can't make it so we are down to 15.

@Neilybob ;; Sorry it's probably probably safest to assume that I won't be there. It's a long trek for me and I has hoping to combine it with a visit to family in the area. But I can't currently make the date fit with seeing family.

No worries and thanks for letting me know.

Less than a month to go.

Well, I don't have anything on on Sat 25th, so if there's a bass player needed it could be fun.

I haven't played in a band for years and I don't know any of the songs, so I'd have to do a bit of prep.

If anybody's up for giving "Carry On Wayward Son" (Kansas) a go, I do know that one, plus I can noodle my way around "Money" (Pink Floyd), "Roundabout" (Yes), "Vital Signs" (Rush), if they're of interest.
