Are you only a tributre band or just sometimes?

[yuki]

That's cool! I wish I was in Hollywood.

[GanjaFreebird]

Are you only a tributre band or just sometimes?

Naw, not at all. We are just playing this gig because it's a big show with some famous people...we only will do 2 Led Zeppelin songs, the rest will be our originals and a couple of other covers.

[yuki]

Which songs will you do?

[GanjaFreebird]

Let's see..."Rock'n'Roll", "Traveling Riverside Blues" as far as Led Zeppelin are concerned.

Some of my originals ("Smoke This One For Jesus" and "King of Pot"...old versions could be heard at www.myspace.com/burningwagon), some of Billy's originals too (the other guitarist/singer).

Also, "Sunshine of Your Love" (Cream), "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" (Jimi Hendrix), "32-20 Blues" (Robert Johnson, covered by Gov't Mule), "99 Problems" (Jay-Z)...also some covers by Little Richard and Otis Redding.

I usually don't follow a setlist though.

You have some good music there on your page.

[GanjaFreebird]

Thank you.

[yuki]

Video your performance and post it.

I assume you guys were smart enough to not do Zeppelin songs as an opening act for a Zeppelin tribute band. But it might have been nice to do something relevent to Zeppelin historically like Shape of Things. Either way hope it went well and I woulda attended the show if I coulda.

very neat, ganja~

[GanjaFreebird]

It went great!!

The only Led Zeppelin we did was "Rock'n'Roll" and "Travelin' Riverside Blues" (the former is partially a Little Richard rippoff, while the later is a Robert Johnson tune anyways), so who cares.

We also covered some Cream ("Crossroads" and "Sunshine of Your Love"), "Voodoo Child" (going into "99 Problems" during the jam), "32-20", "Hard To Handle", 4 originals and I closed our show with Little Richard's "Lucille".

It was our first show since March, and because of personal problems, Burning Wagon featured only 2 of its original members (myself and the other singer/guitarist). Our drummer is new (his second show with us), but he's an older pro-musician so he knows what to play, as of course does our manager who played the bass for us this time (he's actually a legendary bass player, used play with The Chambers Brothers, and currently plays with some ex-members of War and Traffic).

We only had one 4 hours practice, but we did well for the most part. My voice was a bit weaker due sickness, a couple of f#ckups and my low E string went out of tune too much, but it didn't seem like anybody noticed, and people were really lovin' it, so I guess f#ck it, who cares . It was good energy and we played really good for the most part. It was fun.

The Tribute band seemed to be a bit mediocre, it was alright though, but I didn't stay for too long. It felt great to be back on stage though!!
