Song Ideas so far from the thread:
 

No Matter What (Badfinger - chords & lyric)


FrankStar Contributing Member Grand Rapids, MI Have ephemeris, will travel Mar 5th, 2005 03:33 PM Edit Profile Print Topic Search Topic
I'd probably only bring two guitars, one electric, one acoustic. Maybe only one acoustic/electric.
Here's some completely different songs to think about:
"Love Will Tear Us Apart" in D
"A Mighty Wind" (C) or "Never Did no Wanderin'" (G) - I have the sheet music for these.
Jazz Standards? "All Of Me" or "Easy to Love"
Elvis Costello? "Alison," "Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes"
Yeah, kinda different stuff for a jam.

I was watching (and taping) the Eric Clapton "80 Guitars..." special that was on PBS, and was floored by Robert Cray's "Time Makes Two". Can I get some backup for this song (and a couple of nice solo's from somebody too)?

From 6V6Man:

Okay, here's the directions to OZ's.
OZ's address is 1920 Packard.
The phone number is 734-662-8283

From I-94:
Take the State St. Exit, go North.
Turn right onto Eisenhower Parkway.
Turn Left onto Stone School Road.
Turn left onto Packard.
Go through 2 traffic lights.
We're about another 2/10 mile on the left, across from a National City Bank.

From US23:
Take the Washtenaw Ave. West Exit.
In about a mile, Washtenaw curves off to the right.
Don't go that way, stay in the lanes with signs (hanging over the road) that say Stadium Blvd, with a straight ahead arrow.
Once on Stadium, Packard will be the third light. (about 1 mile)
Turn left onto Packard.
Oz's is 3 blocks, on the right.

From M14:
Exit at Main St.
Go through downtown.
Turn left onto Packard.(first light after William St.)
After crossing Stadium Blvd, Oz's is 3 blocks, on the right.
