@mart thanks for that. That's filled a few bass slots. Here's an update list.

The blue rows indicate where we now have a fully lineup.
Note.People can still put their names down for these as we can have multiple run throughs with different lineups.

Note: there are actually a couple of guitars and brass fills on Rocks. So there's room for smeone else to chip in on that one. But I think it can be done with one guitar.

Last time we brought our own amps, but hired a kit as @onlyonebradders 's kit is (a) here in Reading, and (b) would need a load spent for new heads.

Hey up. Another Reading-ite here. Car share?

Nice idea, but I'm likely to be heading over on Friday evening and spending a couple of nights with @onlyonebradders (he's a bloody liar, there are definitely two of us), so unless you've got accommodation for the weekend, probably not going to work.

Note. I'll include that in the next update I post, after I get a few more responses.

@mart can you do bass on Fortunate Son. I believe you played on it last time? That would give another full line up.

I cant drum and play guitar on Hard to handle - Im not that good

Am happy to sing and play rhythm guitar on the second run through though.

@mrkb well spotted. I'll sort that out at the next update.

Ah no it won't work then as I'm planning on traveling down for the day.

Just double checking if we have a date for this jamboree yet?

mrkb · August 2022

Have been trying to do this, but failed on both instruments

If I could still manage to do everything I've done in the past, I'd be a happy man.

But yes, I've just checked Fortunate son and sure, I can (still) manage the bass on that.

...

Are you saying you'd find it hard to handle both guitar and drums at the same time?

stratman3142 · August 2022

I think that gives us 5 songs that are covered and highlighted in blue. I've marked a few available slots relating to 2ND GTR/RHYTHM. So if anyone wants to take those it would definitely help, but I think we could get by without.

@stratman3142 you have greater confidence in my drumming and multitasking abilities than I do, re Run to you (Drum too? Yew!)

Another typo. Good that I've got a few proof readers

Jonathangus · August 2022

Put me down for rhythm on H2H, You Shook Me, and Pretty Vacant.

stratman3142 · August 2022

@Jonathangus noted. Did you also want to play lead on H2H on one of the run throughs? I think you did last time.

Put me down for Lead Guitar on Lil Devil and Fortunate Son and Rhythm on H2H , I prefer to play while I'm singing anyway.

I can bring cymbals, kick pedal and snare for drums if needed. Just need studio to provide basic drum kit shells

i have cymbals and kick pedal here. No snare though.

stratman3142 · August 2022

@onlyonebradders can you have a look at the latest list and say which ones you can play drums on.

https://i.imgur.com/HTlrbbr.png

onlyonebradders · August 2022

Songs I'm happy to drum on based on remembering them from last time...
Rocks, H2H, Under the Bridge, You give love a bad name, lil devil, richard 3, keep hands, is she going out, you really got me (learnt the VH version last time), just what, rebel rebel, entertainment,

Songs that I'll have to learn, fortunate son, my hero (pretty involved drums; it's the late great Taylor after all), you shook, get back (jammed it last time), run to you. Perhaps some of the others at the end of the list but kinda depends on time for me.

@mrkb has Fortunate Son covered on drums if you don't have time.

stratman3142 · August 2022

@onlyonebradders input has created a few more with a full line-up.

Latest list below, but let me know if there are any errors.

I can cover the bass on Just What I Needed, which I did last time. But happy to stand aside if there's a better offer.

Do you still want to do sing Lil Devil in C# now that @mrkb is singing it in the original key of D.

No problem, if so, because we can tune down a half step.

No that's fine , happy to just play lead.

Brocco · August 2022

calling @Tele-scopic @Vibetronic @spark240 @roberty - we could do with your input on the song list discussion

no worries mate, I'll take a look shortly. Might suggest one or two but probably easier to join in the list we already have. I'm not fussy, happy to play rhythm or lead on most stuff and help out

In terms of backline or whatever, I'll be bringing my AX8 + monitor (or maybe a cab) which anyone is welcome to use, plus prob my Musicman, Ibanez and a Strandberg, which again anyone is welcome to if they are coming from further afield/have less capacity for gear.

bertie · August 2022

@Vibetronic ;; makes a good point - is there any gear (not that I own much) that anyone wants to particularly see/try ? If that's within the scope of this

I realise its not a "show and tell" type of event

Howdy, Stranger!
