The following songs to audition for a cover band Sunday.

Harder to breathe
Creep
Comfortably Numb
Hard to Handle
Hash Pipe
Rockin in the Free World
Just What I Needed
Tush

Those are some serious covers. Good luck man!

Thanks guy, it's been forever trying to get in another act because nobody wants a greying 42 yo for originals and the cover acts are kind of spotty. This one seems promising... the song list is very rock oriented (I really have to bring it) but geared towards playing loud to a lot of drinking, partying people. And that is fine.

Hope your gittar man is up for it!

Every now and then I need to remind myself :rolleyes:
---------
Chain Of Fools, from the Commitments Soundtrack

Vinyl
 

More than just something. Albums forced artists to think about how songs would flow together, how one song would follow another. And that nice "crackling bacon" sound added a tangible reminder of the physicality of the medium. And the tactile and visual pleasure of just holding and looking at the album cover...how can one replace that with a CD or just a naked song on an iPod?

Most audiophiles still swear by vinyl with tube amps. Sweet.:)

My dad is looking at 1000 dollar amps at the moment, slowly starting to try to build up a sound system for when we leave taiwan.

Jesse Cook - On Walks The Night

Fall Out Boy, "borrowed" from my older brother

Tragically Hip - Flamenco

That really tickled me :P

Undertoad, let us know how your auditions go:) Comfortably Numb is one of my all time favourite songs. "Tight as a tournequet, dry as a funeral drum" what incredible imagery.

Ages ago, I got introduced to a band, via a tape my brother was given. It was such a good album, but the tape warped, and now I can't find this band anywhere. I've tried looking on various filesharing sites, I've asked at the local music shops etc. Has anybody heard of them? They're called "The Colour Blind James Experience". I think they may have been Canadian.

excerpt: This will come as welcome relief to average looking or ugly, tall, thin, male smokers.

Pantera - Avoid The Light, from the Dracula 2000 Soundtrack. ANother example of a great soundtrack to a REALLY BAD movie.

Black Sabbath - Into The Void

Thanx!

They want me back to run through another set with their keyboard player, who couldn't make it for this one. They complimented me on my playing and my tone and my rig. They seem a lot like me. I think this will work out.

They rehearse LOUD AND I WILL NEED TO USE MY CUSTOM EARPLUGS but that's fine.

Man Who Sold the World - David Bowie

Alanis Morissette - Front Row

Fuckin' left my iPod at home, so nothing. My dad would bring it down, and was about to, then it started raining.

Let It Be - The Replacements

Dawg Duos - Grisman + Edgar Meyer, Bala Fleck etc...

Tragically Hip - On The Verge

Search and Destroy - Iggy Pop

Jamie Cullum - Next Year, Baby

I Robot - Alan Parsons Project

Two thumbs up, Spexxvet. Love APP.

Lonesome Cowboy Bill - Velvet Underground

Jesse Cook - Fall At Your Feet

India Arie - I am ready for love

Love this song - used to sing it when I was down in the dumps about always being the single friend :)

Relayer - Yes

I am having a Moby moment. Dug out the Play album. Haven't listened to it in years.

Panic in Detroit - Bowie

HOLY FUCKING FUCK THATS EXACTLY WHAT IM LISTENING TO!

No, seriously. I fiiinally got around to downloading all of Aladdin Sane, so I'm listening to it.

I think Panic In Detroit is about Iggy Pop.

Unknown Hinson

Anything but country or rap. Mostly been listening to Staind, Audioslave, Metallica, and Crossfade. Rock is usually what I listen to.

Dido

Since Aug 25 I've had no HS connection (and thus no radio dj'ing - sniff), dial-up SUCKS, so I've been cycling through my pile of never-sell samplers.
Right now I've got a Blue Note sampler from 1999 spinning.

Stratosfear by Tangerine Dream

Um...any chance of a tasty mp3 copy, there, big boy?

I am listening to Volume IV of Johnny Cash-Vintage Vaults, courtesy of Sam's Club. Before that, the $7 unopened copy of "Stand!", Sly and the Family Stone I just bought off of Amazon. Sigh.
