Weybridge is easy for me & Guildford should also be fine.   I’m not sure when the A3 / M25 Wisley interchange work finishes - but if it’s still going on in May and they shut a motorway it could really get in the way of getting to Guildford.

Do you book all day, or is there a time you normally book from and to?

We normally bookk all day to be honest so people can come and go as they see fit. 

Good shout about the A3/M25 works. I guess this means I'll book the Weybridge studios then.

I've done some research on these 2 studios I've suggested (though I haven't ever been to either)! 

Assumptions I've made are -

1/ Prices are based on a weekend day for 5 hours per room. We can book for longer or shorter periods as required.

Run down
PowerHouse Studios - Weybridge - Large room No5 and small room No4 - Open
Some what limited car parking though it is on a trading estate so it might not be an issue.
Good size rooms.
PA and Drum kit available.
Hot beverages and snacks available on site.
Total price is Large Room £80 + Small Room £50 + Drum kit package £5 = £135

Silent Hill Studios - Guildford - Large Room and a Small Room - Open
Ample car parking on site.
Good size rooms.
Work on the A3/M25 junction would impact people coming from London.
PA and Mics are included. Drum kit isn't 
Hot beverages and snacks available on site.
Total price is Large Room £75 + Small Room £60 + Drum Kit hire £4 = £139


Really not a lot in it to be honest and due to the works at the A3/M25 junction I'm suggesting using that as my reason to book PowerHouse Studios at Weybridge.

Enquiry email sent.

In the interest of getting this going I've gone ahead and booked 2 rooms (a large and small) at  Powerhouse Studios, Weybridge 12-5pm on Saturday 25th May. 

In terms of payment it will be a pay on the day which we can split between everyone.

Lets make some noise!!!

Gutted! Maybe next time? 

Would be good to get these jams going at least twice a year or more if there is interest?

If Tony is going I might give him something to take along if he doesn't mind

I got round to creating a song list from what’s been proposed so far. 

If you would like to fill in and do any roles please let me know. 

@Neilybob ; I will have a crack at vocals on Ramada Inn too.  IIRC it's (mostly) in G.

@cathodyne added to vocal on Ramada Inn



Need more offers of taking roles and more songs. 


We will remove songs nearer the time that don't have all roles filled. 

soma1975

@Neilybob Could you remove 'I Feel Free' and replace with 'Who Knows' please?

mrkb

What version of Ramada inn are you proposing?

Ramada Inn as on Psychedelic Pill by Neil Young & Crazy Horse.

Something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5h6eBX3mRE or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=is3kjnnvvGY

Any solo / melody on my part will not be a note for note facsimile of any specific version I’m afraid.

Sorry I don't have Spotify if that is a Spotify screenshot.

@Neilybob  I think I’d be happy to have a go at rhythm guitar backing @TeleKinesis on the Dodgy track if that helps.  On Friday or Saturday I will dig out the chords and have a bash so I can make a proper commitment.

I’ve not played it yet, but I heard it a lot back when it was a hit.  A friend at work was an early (and big) fan so it was regularly played in the workshop.  Happy memories!

Neilybob

Updated song list.

lovestrat74

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?

soma1975

Happy to play on Wishlist if nobody else wants to?

EDIT: Although I just listened to it for the first time in ages and not really sure what else I'd play on it as it is very minimal.
