Yeti Fingers crossed but I might be able to manage some of those

    Yeti looking forward to Tracy Chapman. Right now I'm just looking forward to strumming. Managed to strum a nice Sigma in a second hand shop today.

    guidothepimmp Scadewegian I think... Just not sure where.
    And they are definitely worth checking out if you don't know them.

    If I remember correctly the lead singer was the star of their theater scene before starting the band.

      Yeti Does anyone have any other songs they'd like to do... @klaasvakie I seem to remember you had a couple.

      I think lets keep the list like you have it. I'd like get these songs down proper instead of diluting the effort with more songs. There are a bunch of these where I was just strumming along last time and I could use the time to learn them properly.

      In that case let's make it exactly the same list as we did last time:

      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
      Holiday - Green Day
      Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams
      Give Me One Reason - Tracy Chapman
      Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen
      
Just Got Paid - ZZ Top/Joe Bonamassa
      
Down in a Hole (Unplugged) - Alice In Chains

        Confirmed the garage with Greg. We should be getting our own key this time.

        Good Day

        Just some questions regarding the chords provided.

        Running Wild seems to be in a different key. Using a capo?
        I've got F for the Intro,
        |Eb Bb F |Eb Bb C| - Pre Chorus
        |F Eb |x3 |Ab Bb| - Chorus

        Crazy Little thing called Love
        The solo part I have as Bb D Bb and not G C G . - Might be wrong?
        On the bridge, the A should be on "Fever" and F on "leaves". - confused me initially xD

        Ain't no rest for the wicked. Chorus sounds off.. still working on that one.

        Hope this helps =D

          Yeah, they play Running Wild with a capo... but we decided not to last time to save the poor singers ?
          Similarly, we usually keep our guitars in standard tuning, even on songs that are normally played with a lower tuning.

          I'm pretty confident in the chords for Crazy Little Thing because I took it from some decent tabs (although the chords vs words might be off)

          I'm a lot less certain on Ain't no rest... any input would be great.

            @Yeti

            Thanks,

            So that means that I'm playing Running Wild a full step down?

            The solo part on the link for Crazy Little Thing does start on Bb though.. But I'm playing from a Bass point of view so the notes played might just be outlining something different.

            I've got a good idea about Aint no rest, will check later tonight.

              Yup, full step down on Running Wild.
              I'll check out Crazy little thing... might have made a mistake when putting the chords together.

              @RCVN

              There definitely was something fishy with the solo chords on Crazy Little Thing. Since I was the one attempting to play the solo, I remember stopping halfway during both takes because it just sounded so off. I was determined to figure out what was wrong, but haven't got to it yet. I'll try to play it over @RCVN 's progression tonight and see if it's any better.

                Confirmed and corrected. Thanks gents.

                  Anyone else keen on playing bass next week?

                    Garage is paid... in theory we'll be getting our own key this time. ?
