The world of depping

Nice set list, most are pretty standard fare for covers bands, but for a reason, they’re decent songs that get a crowd going.

They do down well I'm told!

Decent set list but also lots of information to work with. 

It's definitely helpful. I'm paying attention to the recorded songs that fade out, as I'm pretty sure they won't on the night! Will be checking with the drummer who is in top of the songs and has more time before the gig (he plays in their other band I just started depping with).

Looks pretty typical, should go down well at a younger venue. 

 

Let's dance is great fun to play but sooo easy to get out of synch if you aren't paying attention (don't ask).

 

Enjoy!

Thanks for the tip. It's a long record and I don't think they'll play it that long, so hopefully be less opportunities to get out of sync!

One thing I've learned through depping is a greater appreciation of some bass players and lines I'd never have given a second thought otherwise. Being forced to learn material and being exposed to genres out of the usual familiarity zone is also a great way to freshen up the playing, I've found.

I’ve had the set list for Saturday now. Nothing challenging, and I’ll chord them all out in the next few days and embed them through active and passive listening.

I'd prefer specific versions to included on the list.

 

Actual YouTube versions or mp3's. I've seen people turn up knowing the original studio version only to find they were supposed to be playing the live arrangement from 20 years later!

The 'gold standard' is a link to the exact version.

 

Beware I found an official lyric video and it turned out to be a semitone flat! Annoying but not terminal!
