Warm Up Gigs for DT Shows?

[LivingForever]

Various members of Tinyfish are now murmuring about being somewhat up for this... :p

I wonder... I wonder...

[JamesA]

No pressure, but I'd hate for it to be Frost* who let everyone down...

 

[LivingForever]

Maybe if all else fails, we could support Tinyfish as a Frost* tribute band called Frost*ies.

I just borrowed a Bass Guitar so I'll start learning Milliontown tonight. It can't be that hard, surely?

[JamesA]

I can't sing or play an instrument, but when I listen to the albums it all sounds pretty straightforward, so I reckon you should have it sussed tonight, with probably time left over to move on to learning another track.

[catherine]

Cosmic Lawnmower on vocals... if LFE can't hack the bass parts I could have a go...

[LivingForever]

Excellent, Racing Hippo on drums... and... Philadelphia plays some good guitar!

Now we just need another guitar player... oh, and someone that plays keyboards as well as Jem.

[Trapezium Artist]

Joining this one rather late, but what a thoroughly wicked bunch you all are  

Following from the material of one of the lectures I gave today though, it strikes me that this thread is somewhat analogous to the creation of virtual particles out of the vacuum: you can borrow a large amount of (creative) energy to create something virtual out of nothing, but only if it's for a very short period.

So let me warn you all now: if this lark continues for much longer, you will be in contravention of Godfrey's Musical Uncertainty Principle and Jem will have to give you all a jolly stern talking too.

Just let me know; I'll be there to take pictures  :lol:

[JamesA]

Can't you just program keyboards so they play themselves these days...

(which pretty much guarantees me that jolly stern talking to)

[Pedro]

Does the line-up of Fraudst* require a spoons player?

Will play for biscuits.

Actually, I play guitar  

[D S]

Well, I'd offer but I'm still out of strings...  

[Mouse]

I play guitar and keyboards, though not at the same time. Yet. I could do backing vocals as well if need be.

I definitely can't play the keys as well as Jem (not by an incredibly long shot), but I could always simplify things. Expensive chords on single keys and such.  

I nearly had a coronary when I saw the Facebook page...

[rogerg]

I could phone something in.

[LivingForever]

Fraudst*

Brilliant. You, sir, are a genius.

[gr8gonzo]

I also play keyboards and provide decent backing vocals.  However, I only meet the criteria if "as well as Jem" means Jem plays keyboards and I do as well.  

Perhaps you could assemble 4 keyboardists to each play 1/4th as well as Jem?
