The October 9th jam is coming up soon. It's been a while since we had a theme for our jam evenings. However, my choice of songs for this jam lends itself to a theme. I hope you'll join in the spirit of the theme and bring your own favorite songs that fit the theme. Here are the songs I'm bringing:
- Can't Buy Me Love by the Beatles (video)
- I'll Get You by the Beatles (video)
- I'm Only Sleeping by the Beatles (video)
- It's Only Rock 'n Roll (But I like It) by the Rolling Stones (video)
- Lady Jane by the Rolling Stones (video)
- Mother's Little Helper by the Rolling Stones (play along video)
Yes, the theme is a "Battle Royale"! Which was the better band: The Beatles or the Rolling Stones? Which was the better song-writing team: Lennon and McCartney or Jagger and Richards? Bring your favorite songs by both the Fab Four or the Stones, and we'll compare them. In the past, we've done other Beatles and Stones songs, so we probably won't run out of material.
As usual, we jam in the back room of the historic Royal Tavern, 344 Princess Street. Parking is normally available on Princess Street. Or park in the lot at the back of the Royal, off Brock Street, just past the fire hall. The jam starts at 7:30PM. But plan to arrive around 7PM for socializing and a beverage.
Cheers! Hans
