I must be crazy...

I must be crazy. I accepted a sub gig with a band that has no set list, doesn't rehearse and they don't use charts. I am really looking forward to it. I saw these guys play a couple of weeks ago and they are really good. I think I might be in over my head a little. Every one of these guys are playing in multiple bands and giging 3-4 times a week. I know that this will not work out to be a permanent spot but if I don't mess it up to badly it will lead to other gigs. For the most part they are playing 1 4 5 type stuff that I know I can handle its the other stuff that I am a little concerned about. I know I need to have Cissy Strut and Mercy Mercy Mercy worked out so I can solo if need be. I figure that if I can keep my ears open and keep an eye on the leader for cues I should be ok. Man this should be fun.

Cissy Strut is fun to play. Explore some transitions into other songs that start in C. My jam band does the following.

cissy strut > rock n roll (velvet undergrond) > cissy strut
cissy strut > feeling alright (joe cocker) > cissy strut
cissy strut > soul island (the meters) > cissy strut

I love cissy strut. One of my favorite songs to play.
