hates R&B, funky stuff or disco-sounding stuff, and prefers country, southern
rock or "just plain" danceable rock. They're also pretty conservative in taste
there, with a preference for oldies. I don;t really like stuff like "old time
rock n roll", but this particular place (WAY out in the country) likes it.
This playlist is a 'cater to the club' list; in particular, we usually avoid
certain old saws that are herre, and we'd usually play less country.

Beatles is good stuff too, especially as a study of how classic pop chord

Basic blues, both lead and chord work, is easy and applicable to a wide

It seems to do well almost everywhere. No one expects to hear it. Easy tune,
but a lot of words and somewhat odd phrasing.

Because your band does a DYNAMITE cover of this song with great vocals
and a lot of energy. It always gets me on the dance floor when I'm there!

We thought of learning "Freebird" just on the off chance someone shouted it.
Any Skynrd is really inappropriate for our sound though, but it would be
funny. Not sure it's worth the work though.

Does this work for you? When we played it, it was one of those 'in between'
tempo songs; not good for slow dances, too slow for fast.

My band only does originals, save one cover tune medley which changes every
time we do it. Some of the usual suspects for this medley:
Maneater
Papa Don't Preach
Lover (Spice Girls)
The Sign (Ace Of Base)
All That She Wants (ditto)

California Love
Billy Jean

This week's flavor: Genie In A Bottle
I hardly ever make it through more than two verses of most of these tunes. I
like to play a different song than the one I'm singing a lot of the time too. I
use the Maneater groove for most of the songs on this list.

Ever tried Freebird, live, in a minor key? Really pisses people off!
howl dog
experiences at gigs..... no, down South, you dont EVER want to fuck with the
song Freebird.
Speaking of Born To Be Wild, once we played it at a biker rally/field event
thing and a bunch of guys jumped on their Harleys and cranked them all up
riding around the stage. Then the singer got this brilliant idea to hold his
mike up to the tailpipe while the guy revved the engine full up
I dont think the PA ever recovered

that's only because I went over the list twice. Thank God for Twist and

the Rising Sun". It's a pretty simple tune, 3 or 4 chords if I remember.
I've talked to a lot of guitarists who told me that that was their first
song also.

"song" I ever learned, with vocals and the whole thing. The first piece I
learned was "Walk, Don't Run" by the Ventures. Used it for my final exam
for my guitar class in high school, too.
What about the rest of you? First songs or pieces you learned ??

I do that all the time. People seem to get a kick out of

"Ring of Fire" next to AICs "Man in the Box." Keeps it
interesting.

Sef, we play it a little slower, and it seems to work out real good. The

end.
