Who Plays What?

Oh, are we counting voices? I now have a voice and hearing problem, but I have been "singing" since I was 7, so a long time. Now it is just for church and too pass time in the car.

Voices definitely count!

If its voices, then you can count me out - I couldnt even make the first showings of X Factor....pmsl

Hey Dexter, you look a bit like Joe Cocker.
That guys voice can tear your heart out.

Funny you should say that.A few years back my wife and i were in Malta and i got up and done a few songs..Mustang Sally,The Letter and Hoochi Coochi man.Took me half an hour to get back to the wife.Everyone thought i was Joe Cocker.I kept saying no but everyone thought i was there incognito.I even signed autographs Spyder and they still juct smiled winked and said ok.Loads of free drinks.Its quite funny even now people see this old fella limp in on a walking stick stagger up to the mic and see me transform as i sing Wishing Well or Born To Be Wild or a drag down torn out blues.I miss having a band as my old band are now fixed up with a new singer.They come from a way a way and now i have no transport so its a pain to have to pick me up.Still it was a great few months to be at it again after 4 years of not being well.

Will the real Joe Cocker please stand up - you decide.

Hey Dexter,
You should try one of those lookalike agency things, If you get stuck and can't find a good one, I can get ya a few contact numbers.

I know how ya feel to be not performing. Like I say, I don't do much of that at the moment, except at some of my Daughter's gigs when she does the Backin Track stuff. She does live band as well, but there is more money in the BT's about £150 to £300 a night. I've got my own collection of Backing Tracks, and it is fun, but I would still like to do a few full band gigs.
One of the reasons I am getting the performance poetry thing togather is so I can still do some original stuff, I even intend to do some acapela, but mainly poetry with attitude.
From the poetry point of view I fancy myself as a bit of a Tom Waits (hey I can dream can't I?).
Maybe if I get the poetry thing goin' I might meet up with a keyboards and a bass and it could develope into a band thing, can only try.

Just tell them you're a drummer and they'll just assume you have no transport
