Garage Days 5 - Garage Days vs Predator

Cage the elephant eh? Cool song for sure. Open g tuning?

Dayum oaks... some schweet songs here... yes... I have not disappeared completely yet :-P.

So I've finally had a chance to actually listen to the suggestions so far and they are very cool. I reckon we should be able to muddle through a version of Ain't no Rest for the Wicked without mucking too much with funny tunings (unless someone is up for a little slide guitar) I'll take a proper look at tabs/chords when I have some time.

Here are another couple of ideas that have been suggested in the past for your consideration...
Slow Cheetah - RHCP
Eyes of the Panther - Steel Panther (really cool but I think we should only put it in if someone already knows the guitar riffs)

@guidothepimmp do you have anything else you'd like to add? You seem to have a good few songs under your fingers.

Nick the drummer has given me a tentative yes. Once we've got a few more confirmations here I'll chase him to firm it up.

Oh, and I see that I messed up tagging @klaasvakie in the opening post... hopefully this fixes it. ?

guidothepimmp

Yeti well... as it turns out.. i know how to play eye of the panther by steel panther ?

Im easy... dont mind either way.. we can add hells bells to the mix.

For a slower tune.. elderly lady behind the shop counter. Pearl jam methinks

Yeti

@guidothepimmp > guidothepimmp we can add hells bells to the mix.

Lol,I got the wrong ACDC song, didn't I? If you can play both let's put in both.

guidothepimmp well... as it turns out.. i know how to play eye of the panther by steel panther ?

Awesome!

No, this means we have a pic for the newsletter ?

But yes I intend to be there!

Yeti

NorioDS ?

Should I get hold of Greg to arrange or would you like to?

I'd love it if you could!

Yeti

NorioDS Can do.

The Garage has been booked. (Link for anyone who hasn't been there before https://goo.gl/maps/TjwKiJPLi2U2)

So far we have:
Nick - Drums
Norio - Bass/Guitar
Claudio - Guitar/Bass
Bevan - Vocals/Guitar
William Bass/Vocals

That gives us enough to be getting on with but it would be great to have some more people too and doubling up on any of the instruments isn’t a problem.

Set list is as follows:

New Songs
Ain't no Rest for the Wicked - Cage the Elephant 
Plush - Stone Temple Pilot Running Wild - Airbourne
Slow Cheetah - RHCP
Eyes of the Panther - Steel Panther
Hells Bells - ACDC
Highway to Hell - ACDC
Holiday - Green Day

Reruns
Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen
 Just Got Paid - ZZ Top/Joe Bonamassa
 Down in a Hole (Unplugged) - Alice In Chains  

That should be enough to keep us busy but if there are any other suggestions, please drop them here.

I'm not sure if this is going to work, but here is a Spotify playlist of the songs.

I'll be there. Will be nice if I can bum an amp off someone again, my practice amp isn't loud enough. Looking forward to it.

Yeti

klaasvakie I could possibly put my amp through one of the cabs there and then you can use the code... assuming that other people don't need the cabs.

Are you keen to sing at all of would you rather stick to guitar?

guidothepimmp

klaasvakie no worries.. i can sort you with one

Yeti

klaasvakie

klaasvakie my practice amp isn't loud enough

I found a solution for you :-P

klaasvakie

Yeti I'll stick to guitar ? Not sure the world is ready for my singing.

guidothepimmp

Yeti im not using that rubbish cab again. I will bring my orange cab and the JP.

You can prob put yours through the 6505 cab.. i think its 16ohm assuming its stock. Maybe check with Greg

Yeti

guidothepimmp hmm, I should do that. I only have an 8ohm out unfortunately.

klaasvakie

Much appreciated @Yeti and @guidothepimmp. It's nice to have a target date to keep the practice sessions focused! Hopefully this time I will be more prepared.

guidothepimmp

Yeti hmmm. It might be 8.. the 6505 comes in both. My cabs are only 16ohm unfortunately otherwise you could have used one of them
