| | | songs to play at my acoustic gigs
right so ive just landed this gig on thursdays at a metal bar i frequent, they have an acoustic night and 6 of us are playing, i did it last week and it was a great success although nerve wracking performing without my band! anyway, since im doing like 6 songs a night, and i cant do all my own songs as some of them just need plugging in and drums ect, im sticking a few covers in there too.
if anyone has any ideas for cool acoustic covers let me know  |

| | | Planet caravan by sabbath. Although it really needs the bassline to just finish it off.
I have a mean acoustic re-working of Seek And Destroy by Metallica, but my guitaring's too crap to be able to record or perform it in public! |

| | | Covers are shit. Make acoustic versions of your songs even though you say the "need" to be plugged in they'll still be better. |

If you had a friend who could help, that would be handy! |
