At the planning meeting for SoCalCon, we talked about attendees posting wish lists/song lists for songs we want to play at the confluence jam session. It 's a really good idea-one that was done last year IIRC, and allows us all to have an idea of what we want to play, as well as an opportunity to learn them ahead of time. A lot of these songs can be learned straight off the web via You tube videos, which most probably already realize, but some may not have, especially for those of us thinking "I know it's these notes, but where on the fretboard did theyplay it? I'm no zealot when it comes to Beatles covers, but watching a couple of their "live" performance videos helped me out with a couple of short bits wrt to the best spot on the fretboard to play some of the bits on "I Feel Fine" and "Day Tripper".
Anyway, since SoCalCon is this weekend, we should probably put our thinking caps on and start coming up with some songs.
I'd like to hear/maybe play/jam on:
Under the Milky Way-The Church
Any song by the Jam
The Killing Moon-Echo and the Bunnymen
Any Plimsouls!
I Feel Fine-Beatles
Day Tripper-Beatles
Does anyone want to attempt The Smiths? (Johnny Marr is a tough Ricknut to crack!)-there are a number of instructional YouTube vids on Smiths songs
Some early Who-no smashing, please.
That's all I can think of at the moment, but it's a start.
We might want to coordinate who's going to play what for which song as well!
