Help!
We have a gig coming up in a few weeks and one of the band members has submitted Rhiannon as a potential tune for us.
I would really like to drop it but I need another tune for a female vocalist that the entire band can learn quickly, two or three rehearsals to go...
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Mike

"My Generation" would be awesome, as well.

My band plays that, but in a slightly different version - I find the original doesn't groove as much, but if you know what you're doing, that one is a blast to play.
