    @FelineGuitars ?  Or is Saturday a working day for you?
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    Saturday is a working day for Jon. We've tried to do the odd Sunday for Gearfests so that he could attend and bring tasty guitars...

    @PonchoGreg - let us know.  

    Be good to get a few more names on the attendee list, then we can get a few more songs on the playlist for the day
    :)

    Sounds like we've got the drumming and bassing slots well covered - which always helps these sessions go really well.

    Will do. I'd need some serious time (perhaps some sort of Rocky montage) to get my chops back up to speed. The guitars have been collecting a bit of dust since the little one popped up two months ago...

    I call BS - your guitar playing knocks me into a cocked hat (not that this is especially difficult). 

    Besides the whole jam days are pitched at all abilities. Otherwise I wouldn't have stuck my hand up like a class-swot 10 year old.

    I can assure you that I played well under my meagre abilities in Leicester and got cheered, encouraged, pointers on technique and a custom lesson from Big Jon. IMHO it's a distinct advantage to be not very good. And if you are good you can show me what to do.

    I've been looking for catchy easy songs that are fun to play but with the scope for extended solos for people inclined that way.. So far...

    Handle With Care Travelling Wilburys D
    American Woman Guess Who E
    Alright Mungo Jerry G (watch out for the drum breaks)
    Cuz I luv U Slade Dm

    I'm not precious about them. The principle is to find easy chord songs  (ie not Birdhouse In Your Soul or Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft.)

    No worries bud! Seeing as it's round the corner from you it made sense! We've been stalking each others progress on the beginner player recordings thread for a while...be nice to get to jam with you!

    Short notice I know, but, if anyone fancy’s a pre jam meet up and beer, pop down if you are close enough!...

    Well that will teach me to not look at all bits of the board! 
    Would love to come but as I am unemployed at the moment will have to wait and see if there are spaces still once I have got some money. Fingers crossed!!

    @bridgehouse.

    We should probably publicise the event in other sections?

    We can't let lack of 15 quid stop you having a nice day, I'm sure we could cover it between us. I'll put in a fiver.

    Yeah, I started the original thread in “guitar” - but this one has been in “events” only

    Maybe a newsletter type email every now and then publicising events, as they're becoming more regular

    If you're suggesting a song then you should volunteer to take lead vocals on it ;)
    One day I'm going to make a guitar out of butter to experience just how well it actually plays.

    Totally agree, doing a passable vocal is the tricky bit !

    My two song suggestions:-

    Magazine - Shot by both sides
    The Brought Low - Blues for Cubby - (if you don't know it, it's a cracker!)

    What's the deal with backline? Are amps provided or do we bring our own?
