I have to learn two songs for a gig, by tonight...

[Gartron]

Good luck!

If all else fails, throw in a few kicks and and Kip Winger poses and nobody will know the difference.

..well played sir !

[Devotee]

I had to learn four brand-new songs i hadn't heard before in a week before travelling to another country for rehearsals with my Death Metal band and managed to pull it off, i think you can manage to learn a couple of easy songs. Don't worry about tone, when you're playing with someone else's backline the general rule is to wing it the best you can on the night.

Quite frankly, you're lucky that they are easy songs and songs you've been exposed to for 30 years.
You could have been asked to play with Stevie Nicks and had to learn songs from her unreleased album.

[Axewielder]

Hey, at least the songs aren't Cliffs of Dover and Opus Suite Trilogy 5.

You've got one day to learn CoD and TSO5....GO!!

Chris Broderick could do it. That dude is like a player piano for tricky guitar parts.

[Newc]

That's the one good thing about GIT - aging Metal bands now have a pool of qualified session players to choose from

[Shawn Lutz]

so.....how did it go?
