My  live  performance  of  Brians  song . Hope  you  like   it ?     
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-Q1gm_V1M0&t=54s

Here's  my translation of a Greek song Treno fantasma  by Pavlos Pavlidis https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YPN7xeNRXCU     

Zurf  you  were  right ,I  certainly  wouldnt   expect  any  one  to  play  without information .When  we  rehearse   the  band  I  always  make  sure  every  one  has  the  same  chart  or   if  some  ones  part  is  playing with  a  uke  or  a  capo or  a  mandolin  etc   I  make  sure  all parts  are  shown in the  correct  key  .Hell I  even  give  the  drummer  a  copy ,     

I probably get a chance to have a go over the week end as we are confined to the house as Pam has covid  and a broken leg so between the fetching and carrying house work and cooking  I 'll have a go.     

Great  song  Brian would  you please  repost  the  lyrics  with  chords

I must admit that I find the music stand a bit embarrassing at times but having performed sets of over four hours when we were a resident band in Greece it became a necessity as some times I would be asked to perform certain songs that I didn't really know only hours before the big so reading and playing something became regular.Most of the other acts on the circuit did the same ,however back here in the UK I feel it is something that does detract from a performance but as I am now  nearly 68 and just playing for fun I just get over it and do it.Some of my associates use iPad but I just don't trust it.LoL

Looking  good  Jim   great  to  finally see you  after  all  these  years .     

Strange Neo can you see the one in the new amp thread?     

Ebay  Jim  fifty  English pounds  and only 15 miles  away.
I  have  modern   transistor  amps   but  this  seems  to  bring tones  out   which  my  Roland  and  my  Line  6 don't.
Fal   were  a  budget   manufacturer  in the  UK   back  in the  60s.The Kestrel  is  about  the  same  size  as   a  Vox  AC30  but  no  where  near  as  heavy .Its  obviously  no  where  near  as  loud  as a  valve   amp   but  seems  loud  enough to  get   over  the drummers level .I  had   a Fal  50 head and and  separate  cabs as  my  main rig      for  a  long  time  but  sold  it  along  with  most  of  my  gear  when we  returned  to  the  UK  from living  in Greece and  it  also  sounded  great  and  responded  well   to  pedals so I  have  high  expectations  for  this , I  plan to    put  a  vid    of  it  on You  Tube   asap  which  I  will  of  course  link  here
