I love Bananarama - cool suggestion! or was it Curiosity Killed the Cat you were thinking of?Haych said:If we're putting song suggestions forward then could I nominate:

I'll start a song list spreadsheet soon. Should we go for up to 3 suggestions each for now?
Would that not result in 45 new songs ?stratman3142 said:I'll start a song list spreadsheet soon. Should we go for up to 3 suggestions each for now?
Presumably we could still retain some from last week (after not learning the four chords of Molly's Chambers in time, I have since sorted it - doh)...
Having said that, I was going to propose "Steady as She Goes" by The Raconteurs. And would still love to get in a rendition of "Hanging Around" (@mrkb - I have the drum notation in the event you were ok to take a look).
I'd love to come :)
Some won't get a full set of roles and will get dropped. Also, you can propose less than three. I'm happy not to propose any songs, and go with what comes up.SPECTRUM001 said:Would that not result in 45 new songs ?stratman3142 said:I'll start a song list spreadsheet soon.

I use to play Steady As She Goes that you suggested, so that's an easy one for me.
I think I'll add a Youtube link for each of the tracks this time, so at least there's a chance we'll learn the same version
When people propose a song can they also say what role they want.
@stratman3142 would it be possible to combine all the tracks that have been performed at the various Western Jams in the past into a master list, ideally showing who the drummer was and who provided vocals? Sharing this may be helpful to those who joined us for the first time on Sunday, or will be doing so for this forthcoming jam. Thinking that this would give us all the complete picture in terms of tracks we have done before that could be considered again.
We usually carry over/revisit 50-70% of previously covered songs at each jam (this was the 5th jam I think, so weve done a fair amount of songs!). Its alot of work to cover the non-guitar roles (Bass, Vocals, drums) and theres many less volunteers for those parts than the guitarist parts ;) so revisiting songs means they are usually performed to a higher standard than the new ones.
Yes that's OK. I've got lists for the following Western Jams. The dates in the names are in reverse order, which helps with sorting. We did a number of impromptu songs at the first Jam in the list, so I'll include those as well. I'm not sure how long it will take, so bear with me.Brocco said:@stratman3142 would it be possible to combine all the tracks that have been performed at the various Western Jams in the past into a master list, ideally showing who the drummer was and who provided vocals?

Can’t do 15th/16th or the 22nd/23rd. Soz.
Like I said before, though, don’t change anything for me if it all works for everyone else.
Well you asked for it. Below is a master list, It shows who played (or was down to play) at previous jams. Apologies if I missed anyone out, or for any errors.Brocco said:@stratman3142 would it be possible to combine all the tracks that have been performed at the various Western Jams in the past into a master list, ideally showing who the drummer was and who provided vocals?
