I think 'Susie Q' might be a cover version done by CCR (Creedence Clearwater Revival ).
That's okay I can scribble those down, they ain't complicated lyrics anyway.

Mics are good but no cymbals might become a problem.
Do we have any actual drummers who are attending who could bring some?
If not, I could maybe pull a favour and try to borrow some but (sorry for all the questions ) do they have cymbal stands ? Is it just the shiny gold bits we need ?

In which case I'm showing some serious age there - I've been looking for a song by Suzie Quatro called CCR, ffs!! Oops. Sorry, guys.

Yes, they have stands, as you can see in the shot on this page.

@TheOtherDennis
@strumjoughlamps
Thank you both. After a hard day on the road you both made me belly laugh.

If none can bring cymbals I will try to borrow a few but I can't promise it will work so if a drummer can bring some, please do.

I wasn't joking though, I really was looking for a Suzie Quatro song.

Glad you got a laugh out of it, though.

Alnico · June 2015

If you want to wear an all-in-one leather jump suit and play bass that's cool man.

Do what you feel !

There's another idea for the setlist.

Although someone would be bound to turn up in a leather catsuit.

Just double checking that it's the 3-9 slot booked? Looks like able able to get there for the last couple of hours.

Yes as far as I understand it is 3pm until 9pm.

Would be great to see you even if only for the last few hours.

Guys...despite my enthusiasm, fate has intervened in the form of my wife having an accident and doing damage to her already fragile back. Sadly, I can't make it

iseverynamegone · June 2015

I'm in the ill see how I get on camp. Still might be able to make it down for last few hours.

ennspek · June 2015

My match has been moved forward so there is actually more chance I can make it. That said because I thought I couldn't I haven't looked at any of the material. I'm pretty sure I used to know the Buzzcocks one though.

Alnico · June 2015

Hey guys if you can't make it, don't worry - life happens.

I can't borrow cymbals from anywhere. Do we have anyone who is coming who can bring cymbals ?

TTony · June 2015

Apologies all - I'm still planning on coming along

Flink_Poyd · June 2015

Who and what room are we asking for when we get there?
Probably be there early bird as it was the sons birthday yesterday and if we don't take him to see the Minions movie he could hold it against me for eternity.

booking is under 'Dennis' I believe

not_the_dj · June 2015

Bit of a question mark for me....poorly no.2 son, but if I can make it later I will.

TTony · June 2015

Just about to stick a guitar in the boot and head off.

It's a bit of a journey, but I should be there for kick off at 3pm.

Alnico · June 2015

me too around 1.

See you all there.

i hope we can get some cymbals !

Flink_Poyd · June 2015

I'm off over now, a bite to eat, a wander round town and I'll be there

I was just about ask if you knew your way around then seen you are a fellow Leicesterfarian

Alnico · June 2015

I haven't been back to Leicester since I lived there In '91.
It will be interesting to see how it's changed.

@LittleGreenMan

Are you coming to Leicester today?
Won't be the same for me without you there man !

We could go to see if any of the old haunts are still there ?

vasselmeyer · June 2015

Bloody hell. I'm gutted to be missing this. These little get-togethers are a lot of fun. Especially ogling other people's gear and jamming stuff out.

At least I have my new band's first gig tonight although I have a horrible feeling that Mustang Sally may be on the request list from the venue we're playing at.

Howdy, Stranger!
