Bassmonkey Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I agreed to dep for some pals tonight as my band have a night off. Jeez. 33 songs learned. Bloody hard work. Some I'd never even heard hefore. They're great guys and we have jammed lots of times but this is a daunting one. Will be glad when it's over! Wish me luck kids!

Ran thru it a couple of years back and it was all good. Song is a busker even after all these years If people gave me a set like that nowadays, I wouldn't really embrace it with enthusiasm unless the money was very good or the band was very good..hopefully both.. I have to say some people's sets are thrown together with little or no thought and there is a distinct lack of imagination in some. I tend to look at the vocalist suggesting sets now...and go from there, I don't want to do standard Disco...unless it is great Nile Rogers stuff... but Delta funk is Coooooolll!!
