okay guys. i need mondo help.
a friend of mine is in charge of booking and a bunch of crap for this basement of a church in bethesda that they are trying to turn into a venue. he does a great job with it. but ANYWAY.
there is an open mic night on friday, and he's had trouble finding people that can play so i've all of a sudden recieved some "PLEASE PLAY PLEASEEEEEEEE" instant messages. i'd love to help him out.
so, i sing and have done so in and out of a bunch of bands now for about three years or so. this is my primary talent. i also really shittily play guitar (have taught myself to do so, and i don't know chords...it's usually just playing stuff by ear or using tabs). and i have a friend that i would be playing with that has great piano/keyboard and singing skills.
so that's that; we'd love to try and pull at least a couple of songs together in the next...well, two days is all we have.
can ANYBODY suggest any songs for me that would fit the following criteria:
- easy to learn and play on guitar. i.e. a couple of power chords and repetitive
- acoustic
- will sound GOOD acoustic (with only vocals, guitar, and keyboard basically. maybe a cowbell, too)
- doesn't require drums or bass. though, drums will be fudged if necessary through silly keyboard drum beats
- easy piano part or something that can be learned fairly quickly
- anything that will sound cutesy and good sung by 1-2 girls with sweet voices and silly insturmentals.
any help and suggestions would be GREATLY GREATLY appreciated. i have until...friday night. so. chop chop!
