JUMP! (strange version ) running with the devil, sensible shoes, Ice cream man and as far as I consider it a VH song you really got me....

thank you...we had a band called "the jazz pack" (named a bit after rat pack) and played all the sinatra and dean martin stuff...but we all were rockers and threw in some of the goodies like jump, don't stop me now, we will rock you (got to post this one, too...funny version) and highway to hell (in a very jazzy style)...panamark loves that stuff, too...he still waits for my banjo version of "running with the devil"

[nosuchluck]

sounds interesting

i can imagine a jazzy "highway to hell", but "running with the devil"??

post it! i'm curious

that was an inside joke between panama and me....there is no banjo version of RWTD so far...

...but go and listen to hayzeed dixie "kiss my grass" and the AC/DC tribute...funny as hell

[Big Fat Sammy]

Atomic Punk, ATBL, Ice Cream Man (once each) and DOA (both solo and with a band).

Sometimes, with a cover band I play w/ on occaision...I'll drop "Miss You" by the Stones w/ some "Some people live apart...they break your heart so damn easy...." improv.

will do. the only jazz versions of rock songs i've heard are by Alex Skolnick Trio - they're great, but only instrumentals...


i was supposed to do ATBL with the first band i was in - i think was also supposed to handle vox for that, because i had the best Roth impression down.

i got kicked out before we could play it on stage

Does playing to yourself count?

[nosuchluck]

i guess...
which VH songs do you play with your band? regardless of where or who you play them to...

[Last_Child]

My band...uhuhuhh

Alone i've played Little Dreamer (No solo) & ATBL (Surprise!! NO SOLO!)

all of that on an acoustic guitar..

[tydhurst]

We play ATBL, Running with the devil, You really got me, and we did Hot for Teacher a few times too.

We also play Yankee Rose.
