    Are you trying to fix a core set list so you don’t need to learn any new songs  ;)
    Not at all.

    Well, not entirely.
    ;)

    It's also about have a few in the set that we know work well and that people can play (or learn) reasonably easily.  A large part of these sessions is to give those who are less experienced/confident an opportunity to get up and play in (friendly) public,  and those songs seem to have helped that happen in previous sessions.
    Yeah, I understand, having learnt to drum on 10 songs for the Northampton Jam , I can see the benefit in finessing them rather than start from scratch each time.

    The three songs I drummed on in Hudds were better as I’d played them in Northampton.

    Will start learning the core songs in case Im needed to bang stuff.

    Apparently there’s a version of Fortunate Son with a guitar solo in it it, by Joe Lynn Turner, but I can’t find it on Spotify. 
    Have you heard about the version of Alright Now with a bass solo in it?

    Paid ppg :)

    hmmmm ..... songs.?  @Clarky will insist I do Don’t Believe a Word seeing as he insists I’ll have the solo sorted by then 

    but how about one from :  
    - Heaven and Hell (sabbath) - 2 bluesy solos in there 
    - Ain’t no love in the heart of the city (whitesnake) - same again
    - All night long (Rainbow) - single simple solo

    so, suggestions only, take your pic if any meet the criteria

    One I nearly got into the Northampton one was - Bad Company - Feel Like Makin’ Love - has some great opportunity for solos and has great dynamics.

    Choose any or none of the following as my suggestions:

    American Idiot, Green Day
    Sweet Emotion, Aerosmith
    Tube Snake Boogie, ZZ Top
    Mrs Robinson, The Lemonheads
    Holy Diver, Dio

    I can play none of the above, but then I haven't played a whole song (all the way through) since 1988

    Right, sod it, I'm in. @TTony ;; I'll sort out a payment. 

    As for songs, I have unfinished business with No surface, All Feeling... But I really think it's about time Teenage Kicks featured at a jam. John Peel wasn't wrong and I think it would very much suit @mrkb on vocals

    I don't think I'd ever heard that before @McToot.  Most interesting!

    That would add some variety.

    So true.  

    Although I hated the reggae that he played back in the day.  Now I'm buying those same CDs.  Should have known he was right at the time ...

    I don't believe it, as Victor Meldrew would say.

    Water Rats is 10 minutes drive from where I currently live and I've rehearsed there many times. But we've sold our house and, all going to plan, I'll be in Exmouth in June.

    It's not a competition.

    Haha @poopot ...Mrs Returns made a brief appearanceon Saturday to show me some moral support, but I think she got distracted and just wanted to sing stuff. She certainly didn't make me a brew!
