Hey all,
I thought maybe we should take a look at who’ll be playing what this weekend.

I’ll be bringing an acoustic, an electric and a bass and can do vocal duty on any of the songs. I’ll also bring an amp in case we need it.

This is what I’ve had a look at:
What's Up? – Rhythm, lead and basic bass
Down on the corner – ‘lead’ and bass
Hallelujah – finger picking and simple bass
TNT – Bass and rhythm

What have other people been looking at?

Though my bass is medicore at best (Only started playing again now after +-7 years) I'll be able to handle:
What's Up?, Down on the corner and Hallelujah

Can do vocals for hallelujah and backup on Down on the corner.
The playing and singing together thing still escapes me

Yeti I will being electric guitar, ukulele, and a rehearsal amp with multi effects pedal. Also a kazoo for Down on the Corner.

What's Up - Rhythm guitar
Down on the corner - Will work on simple rhythm to go with the repeating lead pattern (which I could also do, albeit not brilliantly)
Hallelujah - Strumming (should sound nice alongside a finger picking pattern)
TNT - Will probably be very dodgy for me, I haven't spent time on it

NO SINGING FROM ME!!!!

      William Beetge - Bass, vocals - Lu22
      Stefan Cronje - guitar - Hasie
      Adrian van der Merwe - Rhythm - slowpoet
      De Sousa Norio - - NorioDS
      Denuyschen Andre (backup singers)
      Bevan - guitar,vocals - yeti
      Makushla - vocals

      slowpoet De Sousa Norio - - NorioDS

      I haven't had a chance to practise anything so I'll open and close on the day and cheer on from the sides ?

      Will still bring my main axe and my micro terror coz I need to hear it through a 4x12 cab ?

        I forecast a severe case of G.A.S...great thing about rehearsal studio's - is the chance to really crank your gear ?

          Same here. I will be hitting my name with a plank. Will try not to break the rhythm, but you okes can tell me go outside and rather drink beer than play - that's okay too.

              But it's part of my master plan :-) Choosing songs that you could learn in 20 minutes and so still be able to play along.

              I tried yesterday and this morning. Can't even learn one in 20 minutes. I will bring my smallest amp so that it will be drowned out by the others. ;-)

                Thanks guys, that was great fun. Looking forward to the next one!

                I wanna say a special thank you to @slowpoet for organising the event! Herding musicians is not different to herding cats ?

                And @Yeti, thanks for coordinating on the day. You really helped keep the jam moving forward. It's far too easy for us musos to get sidetracked and just generally be disorganised. So your work on the day was appreciated!

                I think we all had a lekker jam.

                So... shall we get going on organising the next one? I'll start another thread and we can take it from there?

                Awesome!
                Many thanks to all for making it a success.

                    NorioDS Haha, I thought I was just being bossy.

                    I'm definitely keen on joining for the next one.

                      Yeti If it get's too much, we'll just start ignoring you :-)
