    I know the feeling! We'll muddle through without you. I'll just have to show you my amp next year. ?

    Is there any chance we can borrow your cymbals for the day? I don't think that Nick has been able to get his hands on any yet.

    guidothepimmp Awesome, thanks. Will you be around for me to pick them up on my way to the garage on Saturday or should we make a plan to get it before then?

      Anyone got chord sheets for these songs. In E-standard? I'm learning the bass but if I have the chord sheets, I can skip some of the frilly bits and get a bit "tighter" before Saturday. Right now my bass playing on these is a joke ?

        Just to confirm. Time on Saturday is 12:00.

          But which version of "House of the Rising S"? Because not all versions on the interwebs have the same chord progressions (especially between sung parts) I'm going with The Animals chords (as near as I can get, anymore)

            I've been playing the animals version. From memory...
            Am C D F
            Am C E
            Am C D F
            Am E Am

            Yeti You've illustrated my point very well.

            The animals have another section after this - essentially the intro. So it's something like: Am C D F Am C E7 E7 / Am C D F Am E7 / Am C D F Am E7 Am E7. But many sites give something similar to what you've got (perhaps an E at the end). Listen to the Animals version. For what it's worth, I got those chords from Justin Guitar.

            And it's E or E7 depending on source.

              slowpoet I'm going to list that as a solid plausible. ?
              I learnt the song ages ago, before I knew what a 7 was and haven't checked the chords recently. Shouldn't be a problem though.

                My uncultured opinion: On the Uke, the E7 sounds much better, but on the guitar, the E works very well.

                  Be prepared, we may have to go acoustic. There may be some load shedding.

                    For those about to jam in Silverton today... Our power is out so I might not be able to leave the house.

                    And then also there's rain forecast for Silverton. Do you guys wanna risk it?

                      Thanks everyone, that was good fun.

                        Yeah thanks, that was lekker! Possibly the most fun I've had playing bass so far.
