   • As it looks like I might be playing with my mate's dad's covers band for a while (the money is handy), I've been trying to think of some new covers for us to learn. At the moment we do stuff like AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, The Who plus some newer stuff like Kings of Leon. Hit me with some ideas. I've been thinking about suggesting some Foghat, Mountain, Leafhound etc but it needs to be fairly well known stuff really.

   • We do Sharp Dressed Man, Stone Free, Fire, a lazy cover of Paranoid and we're learning Highway Star so you're on the right tracks. Keep em coming.

      Of course, I should have said that! It can segue nicely into another tune that way.

      Mississippi Queen, Slow Ride and Black Betty would be at the top of my list I think.
