what is the latest with Christian's birthday and jamming on a few songs with him?

raybrower said...

looking to book a room at the springmill fire house banquet hall, know the lieutenant. we're, (xian and i) trying to put a band together to play a couple covers, (5),. ben is in, judah has schedualing conflicts, so perhaps bubbles or brogger or both for lead guitar?

the brogger said...

would love to join...I thought the clap(cover band wit Judah, ben, me, rich and ben) were going to perform that night too ...we don't have to if you don't want .....raybrower fill me in on the details-songs, time etc.........also, we are planning a sort of festival the following Saturday with the clap, stonethrown, dj rod Abary, and a solo acoustic performer...everyone is invited...it should be a lot of fun.... open bar (we're still planning it)

the brogger said...

well it looks like all kim boys are in for playing together....is this a first?? this could be a lot of fun...when should we practice?

raybrower said...

don't you mean...'where should we play...'

'The Judah' is now in. We're planning on a practice session on friday feb 6th.at mom's (aka the lions den) I think y'all should attend. xian has 5 or 6 songs he would like to play, but he REALLY would love it if all his uncles would jam with him. We have the venue for 4 hours. it will be open bar and we're planning about 50 people to attend saturday feb. 28 7-11pm.

Perhaps we could brain storm on friday (feb.,6th) and put together a variety group arrangements, depending on the genre and song types; ballad, acoustic, hard rock, punk, pop, etc...
i'm really itching to do cover of 'love rescue me' by u2, xain thinks it sounds too 'churchy'

the brogger said...

awesome...I'm there!....I don't know if I'll be all that familiar with any tunes xian (I love that spelling) might want to play...raybrower-can you get Xian to pick some tunes ahead of time so I can download them and find the music... it'll be a lot more fun and productive then on Friday

everlong- foo fighters
mr bright side - killers
white wedding - billy idol
all these things that I've done- killers
a punk - vampire weekend
hummingbird - born ruffians
float on - modest mouse
bonzo goes to bitburg - ramones
wonderwall - oasis
what's wrong with the world today - flight of the concords

raybrower said...

so check it out...
xian had a brilliant idea.
how about after or between sets, we turn this into 'live karaoke'
c. wood said he'd come, and brogger if you could get rich and ben to come i think it would be cool.

Bubbles said...

i'm in! let me know what you need me to play (Guitar, congas, back up vocals, anything!)

raybrower said...

so check it out...
this friday we will be practicing at the lion's den around 5:30
the songs are;

britzkrieg bop
rebel yell
float on
mr bright side
everlong
bonzo goes to bitburg
all the things that I've done

... in that order.
there may be changes and/or additions depending on the feel and difficulty of the song.

the brogger said...

i'll be there @ 6-630...bubbles, you can use my amp or ben g's amp...it's already set up at the lion's den- you'll need cords and your pedals

Bubbles said...

am I indeed playing guitar? Can someone give me recordings of these songs?

the brogger said...

i think bubbles should indeed play the guitar as well as juder...i'm thinkng my services are no longer needed, although i would love to be a part of the band....raybrower, please advise

raybrower said...

so check it out...
we need two guitars and keyboards, and back up vocals.
so the more the better.
