What sort of songs should you be palying (regularly) if you hold a Grade 4, 5 or 6?

Wondering what the feeling is about this...? I'm doing Rockschool Grade 3 this year and I think it reflects classic rock covers playing pretty well.

Thinking that from Grade 4 and up though you'd need to be playing soul, funk, pop and jazz on a fairly regular basis as well as doing a fair bit of reading (doing a fair bit of pit work), in order for your actual day-to-day playing ability to reflect what the exam grade says you can do.

What does everyone think about this?

...ok, probably find a band that plays more, pop, funk, soul and jazz then!

Will do.
