Yeah, sounds great. I'll leave mine straight after church. Erm.... Copying the chord charts might be a problem for me, because it's my dad's printer/photocopier and he's running low in ink and stuff, plus he needs it for work. I'll try my best to get a few copies of each though. Thats once i've decided which song's i'm gonna bring.

Got the Jeff Buckley Books, so we can work a few of them if you like, i love his version of Halleluljah, in either G or C, thats the two ways i have it written. I really would like to do "Fall for you" By second hand serenade. The way i know it is not the way he plays it, he plays in a different tuning than standard, but its the same chords. I'll write them out.

Then there is a few songs by a couple of Christian bands, but its not obvious in their music. You've probably heard of Switchfoot, i would love to try "Meant to live" and "Adding to the noise" and maybe even "Oh Gravity" by them, the P.O.D, i'd like to do "Alive" and "Lights out by them" and finally, There is a band called thousand foot krutch, I'd love to do, "Breathe you in", "What do we know" and "This is a call" By them and Lastly a couple of Relient K pop punk songs. "Devestation and Reform" and "Be my Escape". Think it would be cool to play that last one acoustic though if we can figure it out.

Anyway, thats my two penneth. Waiting on your address. I'm good for both days, so sunday is fine.

Blast!

I'm heading North East that weekend to the Hull area. Never mind I'll get to the Pool for a jam with you guys one day.

Have a great time all of you. And, don't forget to do pics and vids for all of us at GN.

Will have to figure out how to make video work. Gah, i feel old!

(and I've just discovered I really can't tap my foot at 42bpm while typing without one or both going seriously wrong...at least not my left foot, anyway)

Saturday! YAY!

I'm driving, so one or two cans will do me.

What time you planning on staying for?

And i should be able to help you with the video side of things. I am a computing student :)

Just got back. Was a great session. Even if i did feel slightly inferior in ability. Two great guitarists to play with. I'm really looking forward to the next one so i can play and learn more with you guys.
