Real Talk Though

Firstly: here are the first few journal entries I did in my book (before I decided to use this monstrosity again)

11/2

So we've come up with a rough list. Here it is so far:

Aeroplane - Red Hot Chili Peppers (Pat's Prescribed)
Hysteria - Muse (My Prescribed)
Tomorrow - Silverchair
Love Shack - B-52's
Rock Lobster - B-52's
Foxey Lady - Jimi Hendrix
Purple Haze - Jimi Hendrix
Sultans of Swing - Dire Straights
Covered in Chrome - Violent Soho

Here are some ideas, we need eight. I'm nervous.

1/3

In the last three weeks, we have practiced twice with our bass player. And now he tells us that he can't practice because he has work till 5:30.
Fair enough, he has stuff on. But he could of told us earlier! I'm freaking out man, what song do we play at the end of the term and I  have no idea what I'm doing at the moment.


Now that that's over, here's what we have!! We know the songs, I am listening to them religiously. We know what songs we're playing. We just need to learn them. It's hard, me not having a drum kit, the band not having a bass player, and Pat having too much other stuff to practice on this sort of stuff, but we'll get there I guess.
I think the songs we'd probably do at the end of the year, looking at the list now, are probably:

Aeroplane
Hysteria
Love Shack
Foxey Lady into Purple Haze
Sultans of Swing

That gives us a wide variety of different styles, as well as many different things we're each playing. I wanna do Sultans of Swing because Pat wanted to do it last year, but we couldn't, because it didn't fit in with my style. But this year, we have to do it.
Love Shack is completely and utterly different from everything else, like, totally
And we wanted to do both those Jimi Hendrix songs, and because they sound similar, we think we'll totally blow the judges minds if we go from one into the other without any hiccups.
The two prescribed songs are also completely different, we have heavily synth rock with reggae. I  think we'll be alright :)
