Awesome!

Special request - Record a cover version of Bad medicine - Am yet to hear a good one of such a brilliant 80s classic.

Love that website front page - wish I was good enough to design stuff like that :( I thought I was ok but it looks amateur compared to this!

Set list sounds great. I may finally have a band to get playing in - been contacted by a guitarist who knows a good drummer into the same stuff :) Looking forward to meeting up and having a jam, getting excited at the thought of playing outside my bedroom for the first time in ages :)

Dammit, I can't see the web page for some reason - I'll have to wait till I get home.

Bizarre?  Maybe the word "rock" in your work's web filter is deciding it's inappropriate material???

:lol:

For some reason the link is  http//www.doppelganger-rock.com/ so just delete that http// and it works.

Post by: Twinfan on August 15, 2008, 10:48:32 PM
Err, no!

We just play guitars through some amps put together by a guy we know   ;)  :lol:

Phew Dave you got some serious lead parts to work on there ... that should keep a young man busy for a while  8)

Great set list, and indeed - the site is simple, but massive first impression, cool stuff there!!
