    So I am happy to sing Johnny B Goode and You Really Got Me. Another rock'n'roll song I know well is Maybelline. I would quite like to give the vocals on Richard III a go if you aren't dead set on it @nickos236 

    From the other list above I like the look of Bohemian Like You and Ain't No Sunshine. Happy to participate on those in any combination of guitar/bass/vocals

    As two of the tracks that I originally had my name down for are no longer on the list, I don't have much to do, so happy with that!

    As far as 'classic tracks' go, I find your lack of faith AC/DC disturbing...  :)

    If we have someone who can sing an AC/DC track I might even propose Working Man by Rush!   ;)

    I can sing AC/DC. Might not be pleasing to the ear but can definitely hit the notes

    @roberty my long list of tracks shows @Jonathangus as previously down for Under The Bridge and Rock of Ages, so if you are able to join him, we can hopefully pull a full band together

    Yes mate count me in. What instrument I playing? :-)

  • to complete the band for Rock of Ages we need vocals, bass and rhythm. For Under The Bridge we need Bass and possibly guitar, depending on whether @Jonathangus will play guitar as well as sing?

  • Singing and playing at the same time is a no-no, I'm afraid.

    Just a point about 'classic tracks', though - @onlyonebradders has learnt a bunch of new songs already, and throwing more at him at this stage might be getting a bit much.  Plus, drumming all day, he'll need a break or three!

    I know that really well apart from the intro, will only need a bit of brushing up if you want to do it?

    Cool sign me up for bass on UtB. Anything by Flea has got to be simple, right?

  • Better consult @onlyonebradders about the drum part on Under The Bridge.

    The bass guitar doesn't come in for quite a while. Then, the rhythm section goes through some tricky changes. Good luck with running that down on the day.
    Be seeing you.

  • Are we still doing Talk Dirty to Me?  Thought we'd dropped that one (not least because it was mrkb's choice, and he's no longer coming).

    And I can probably fill a lead slot on H2H if needed.  (I mean, I bollocksed it up royally when we attempted it live the other week, but hey...)

    Yes I thought that Talk Dirty was dropped. Also, I thought "Since You've Been Gone" was dropped as well.

    It would be great if you could play a lead slot on H2H. It seems a bit greedy that I'm the only one down for that one. I think the same applies to "Keep Your Hands To Yourself". If anyone else wants to play a lead slot as well as me, I can play rhythm or stand aside.

    There's currently nobody down to play bass on the following. If the 'proper' bass players aren't interested, as a fall back, I could do it? I'll stand aside if a real bass player is up for any of them.

    Cold Hard Bitch
    Richard III
    Lil' Devil
    You Really Got Me
    Johnny B. Goode 

    Just to note that I believe @bobblehat wanted to do Lil' Devil a semitone down.

    I don't mind the key of "You Really Got Me" but I think @Vibetronic wanted to do a Van Halen type version which might work best in A. Van Halen tune down a half step, so it sounds like it's in Ab.
     
    It's not a competition.

  • thanks @Jonathangus - have added you as lead for the 3rd run-through of H2H

    Regarding Talk Dirty and Since You've been gone, thought it worth adding back one final time just in case @roberty fancies  contributing on vocals, but will otherwise remove again, and will do so regardless if @onlyonebradders has the slightest concern, as he already has so much to cover

    I might want to do everything a semitone down!  , I haven't sung anything properly for 18 months so we'll see how it goes

    Ok with JBG and YRGM. I’ve been learning the VH version as I had it on the iPhone already… other two I don’t know yet, so will need to give them a listen and revert…

    I think we can just turn those tuning things on the end of the guitar...;-)

    My floating vib. guitar isn't a happy bunny if I tune down. Some use of the originals use open strings, but I've found work arounds with all of the songs you're singing for a semitone down without having to tune down. So it wouldn't be an issue either way to me. Or maybe I'll bring my fixed bridge Tele as well, just in case.

    It's not a competition.

    I think @spark240 has a half step mode on his digital amp?

    I can probably manage the bass of Lil devil, so maybe me and @stratman3142 can do one turn each if we're playing it twice.

    Indeed…I can step down a key with the Kemper ….I’ll bring a couple of guitars anyway, so happy to tune one down,
