Dom in Dorset Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I always used to play Spinal Tap's "Tonigh I'm Gonna rock You (tonight)" in sound checks, last night i was practicing scales when a new tune happened! There are better versions on youtube, this guy is a few steps ahead of me, but I'm not gigging for nearly a month , so plenty of time: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib9gMLjOXS8"]youtube clip[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisnameistaken Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I like to sing theme tunes that date me for soundchecks. Recently it's been Record Breakers and Rent-A-Ghost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Do you play much Bach in your setlist? I usually just run though the main part of one of the songs i'm going to play during the set...meaning the engineer has a chance of making me sound good during the gig. Sorry. Going to bed now.

Dom in Dorset Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) I can see that I'm going to have to work on the Blockbusters theme too. Mind you, the sound man we see most of all is American and just wont appreciate the likes of Rentaghost or Blockbusters.

thisnameistaken Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 No I was a child and sometimes during school holidays there wasn't anyone to play with. So I got to hear Henry Kelly announce "Sven, you're playing catch-up" all too regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
