Im putting together a punk/rock live kareoke afterparty sometime in June.
I need to find out who is interested in playing what instrument, and what songs. For example:
SONG: CREEP - RADIOHEAD
Singer: Joe Borfo
Guitarist: Roadblock
Bass:Hatehills
Drums:Dingo
I guess we can start picking some songs out first. so who is down???

should punk karaoke be saved for the straight edge ride? or do you prudes need booze as an excuse to make an ass of yourself with a microphone?
ruinedbyidiots 04.23.08 - 6:16 pm

You'll be the one making a fool of yourself on the microphone. I will be making a fool of myself on guitar.
DINGO: can you play "Police Story"? If so, we've got a lineup!

bentstrider:
"There's a Tear in my Beer": Me on vocals. I know a fair amount of Hank. Yes, I do.
Everyone:
Is it really karaoke if we're playing all the instruments? Isn't that a cover band? I mean, the best cover band ever, with rotating members, and lots of amazing. But.
Some friends of mine were in a band (not a cover band -- they wrote their own songs) in which they decided who played which instrument on stage, right before they played it. The band was called ....
The Units.

I really don't see a place for it, but out of all the tracks your considering, do any lend themselves to an Alto Sax? Not for a solo, but maybe background, or following the melody, or an appropriate honk or Squeak as needed?

Thanks. I don't have any of the songs you guys have mentioned. Could someone/anyone upload those mp3s to my idisk folder so i could check them out? And i want to reiterate, i'm not looking to be 'featured' on sax. My embature is shot and i don't get an opportunity to practice nowadays so i'm rusty as hell. Maybe thats a good thing for punk rock? I'm just looking to support the band and fill in however i can until i get back into shape.
Also, just a reminder, i'm on the ALC ride from June 1st-7th (and then sleeping the entire next week!) LoL. But don't plan anything around me.
Thanks.
