    sorry - had a few "paw" related issues taking my focus  -   havent run through it with Mrs Bert - but still pencil me on for JWIN  maybe me and Brocco take one each ?    

    So do you want to possibly have a go at Vocals and rhythm or lead guitar as well? Let me know when you're sure, but you can just decide on the day, now that we've got enough roles for the song to stay on the list.

    We just need one more role for the following songs:


    Vocals for 'Just What I Needed'



     @bobblehat : Can you do 'Be Yourself. and 'Gold on The Ceiling' without a second guitar. If so, we just need a bass player for those two and I'll but 2nd guitar down as 'good to have' but 'not essential'.

    I'll have a bash at vocals on "Just what I needed"   
    Can do without a second guitar on "Gold on the ceiling"  and "Spread your Love" They are both pretty much just 3 chords so I'm sure someone will jump in.

    @roberty has offered to do vocals on 'Just What I Needed' so, if you were offering just to help out, it's not essential now. I've put you down with a ? mark for the second run through. Let me know if you really want to do it.

    'Gold On The Ceiling' and 'Spread Your Love' just need a bass player to complete the line-up.

    I've had a quick listen to 'Spread Your Love' and 'Gold On The Ceiling'. I could possibly cover those on bass but, as I'm already doing a few on bass, I'll give someone else first shout. How about @Neilybob if you want to play bass on something? Otherwise @mart or @roberty but they're quite busy already.

    I think 'Spread Your Love' is in drop D on guitar, but think the bass is still E standard tuning. It's certainly playable in E standard on bass.

    Here's another update to the song list

    I can take the bass on Symphony of destruction. 
    @neilybob do you fancy taking over the bass on any of the songs I originally signed up for? I probably played too much last time, and don't want to stop anybody else who wants some bass fun.

    OK. On 'Let's Dance' I was going to play the Nile's rhythm part followed by some SRV (type) lead at the end. But It would be good to have some rhythm under the lead at the end.

    I guess we could also double the Nile's rhythm and have fun debating the exact voicings he uses

    Wondering if we should consider removing suggested songs that do not have both a drummer and vocalist by a given date?
    Quite a few drummer roles have now been filled by @onlyonebradders , so should we give it a little longer before dropping any?

    Agree - maybe consider removing suggestions that do not have a full band at the end of the month

    Is anyone up for doing vocals on any of the following? If we can get a singer, I'm sure we could rustle up a bass player..

    Still open for suggestions from attendees for 3 songs each. It's especially good to get suggestions from singers, as that's usually the hardest slot to fill.

    There are quite a few vocal slots still open for some that are already in the list. Plus we can do multiple run throughs with a different line up, if you want to sing or play guitar on a track that already has a full line-up.

    It's not a competition.

    @bertie do you want to be down for vocals, lead or rhythm guitar (or a combination of those roles)?

    Can you update title or first post with the agreed date? It might drum up other attendees, and I need to stick it on the calendar before I forget and book something else.
