REQUESTS?
IF YOU LANDED HERE WHILE LISTENING TO ME OR ME AND GIT IN THE TRUCK, LOOK THROUGH THE LIST OF SONGS BELOW AND LET ME (OR US) KNOW WHAT KINDS OF THINGS YOU WANT TO HEAR.
SORRY THERE'S NO RAP OR DEATH METAL ON HERE, BUT HAVE YOU TAKEN A GOOD LOOK AT WHO'S PLAYING? WOULD YOU REALLY WANT TO HEAR ME (OR US) PLAY THAT???
Since I didn't start doing this until I retired, I never had to learn the words to anything, so what I usually sing is with the help of downloaded lyrics. By the time I remember the words to a song, I'm usually tired of it anyway...
We stay away from songs that may be offensive to some. While we'll give it a shot to do things we haven't done before, we have two rules we follow:
1) Have fun,
2) Don't suck
I'm sorry if I/we don't play a song you ask for, but rules are rules, and we can't play a song if we're gonna break a rule; Especially #2.....
You're welcome to ask for anything, but the odds of hearing it are a lot better if it's in one of the lists below:
