This means it's basically a concert for us, that's the good news, the bad news is we only have 2 songs prepared for it because we thought that's the amount we were going to get. What are some songs we should try, we need to come up with a setlist for tomorrow when we have practice again. |

Total Posts: 112 | We havent figured out what our genre is because we havent made enough original music yet, so we're just a cover band. We have like two original songs that we don't have recorded, but we've covered everything from classical to punk to heavy metal. Our setlist for now looks like this
1) Symphony of Destruction - Megadeth
2) Iron Man - Black Sabbath
3) Woman - Wolfmother
4) Blitzkrieg Bop - The Ramones
That right there is about 15 minutes worth of music. We need a couple more songs. |

I find it funny that 3 out of those 4 songs are from Guitar Hero... |

Edit | Mmm, guitar hero...
No suggestions here... though, I'd add in something absolutely silly just to have some fun. A suggestion: "Joker", or as my friends call it, Space Cowboy. Why? I dunno, I really don't like the song itself. But I'm sure you could get more than a few laughs. |

Total Posts: 112 | Well, it's all over, we've played and stuff, but im really dissapointed. We got a call yesterday from our drummer who said he couldn't make it to the show (extreme circumstances out of anybodies control). We threw together a set of everything we could do and just played it today. It was the best we could hope for, but not nearly as good as I had wanted it to be. |
