w.r.t. Acoustic stuff, I think the Zombie suggestion is good since it has both in it, and maybe Ramble-On by Led Zep
Garage Days 8 - From Another Dimension
If we keep Slow Cheetah, that also has both in it.
klaasvakie ahem... meant poison
I've never heard either the KISS or Poison songs before today, but I've listened to it a couple times now and I think it will make a good Garage Day song. Looking at the tab:

it doesn't look too brutal to learn either. I vote yes.
Good for me
@Klaas, i think you called it. This is an opportunity for that hectic psychedlic pink fiddle ?
guidothepimmp I don't know what you are talking about!
Right, so here’s a preliminary set list for the 12th. Thirteen songs in total, which is a lot but let’s see how we get on.
Not set in stone yet, so comments welcome.
Old songs:
Crazy Little Thing Called Love – Queen
Plush – Stone Temple Pilot
Give Me One Raisin – Tracy Chapman
Slow Cheetah – RHCP
Just Got Paid – ZZ Top/Joe Bonamassa
Zombie – Cranberries
House of the Rising Sun – Animals (snigger)
New songs:
Black – Pearl Jam
Africa – Toto (more synth than guitar… but we can give it a shot)
Creep – Radio Head
Last Nite – The Strokes
Talk Dirty to Me – Poison
When We're High – LP (another more dance track but could be fun… anyone up for the finger style?)
There are a couple of suggestions that I haven’t included simply because I don’t know if we have the vocalists to pull it off… if anyone feels strongly about them (or feels they can sing them) we can add them
Cochise - Audioslave
Welcome to the jungle – Guns 'n roses.
I already have chord sheets for the old songs, will try to get tabs for the new songs soon but between a 7 year old’s birthday party, writing a year end show at short notice and trying to record some vocals for this month’s challenge I’m a little short on time at the moment…. Watch this space
Spotify playlist...

I'll update this if there are any changes
I'm going to do my darndest to be there. I can definitely get to Centurion, so I'm going to be begging for a lift from there. In the meantime, I'll see which of those I can play with my left claw!
Give Me One Raisin?
So glad you added LP thanks, we will be there, my bud Tuckster and I that is. Oh and I'll bring a raisin for you Yeti. Where do I find the time and address please?
Right... kid's party done, script complete... and finally had some time to look at some chord sheets. You can find them here.

Please check them out and let me know if there are any mistakes... I'm afraid I haven't had a lot of time to double check them.
On a different note, I'm adding Whisky In The Jar - Metallica to the list because it seems I forgot it when I put the list together.
As usual, we will be playing everything in standard tuning for convenience, so if a song is normally tuned a step down, we'll be playing it a semi-tone higher.
Working through Zombie on the Uke, and the Em9/F# doesn't work. I've tried various Em9 voicings and they all sound wrong. Any suggestions on what to use, I hesitate to try Em, because after Em9 it always goes to Em.
