Guitarmageddon Episode 8 - Woop De Doo

There's good news and bad news, the bad news is there's not going to be a podcast recording next week.
The good news is there was so much stuff recorded this week that we're going to split it over two weeks!

So, we kick off episode 8 with some chat from new daddy Addy. That turns into music chat and Adam drops the pun "take your pick". Adam's decided to chill out from being in bands for a while, apparently rocking out for 1 guy and an awkward silence isn't really worth it.

First song of the night, sort of, Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin.

Lynn makes a cameo appearance and delivers us two cups each while chatting about the choir, which gets Adam a little bit over excited.

Susan's old @rse gets a seat then she gives podcast land directions to her new flat on posh sounding Bertram Street. But then she gets interrupted when Jimmy phones and gives him the house selling blues.

The chat turns to gigs and Hells Belles, Kings of Leon, Snow Patrol and Eminem all get a mention.

Susan takes exception to John's face and then she forgets how to play the bass leading to John making a bold claim.

Susan gets a new catchphrase to underpin the fact this is The F**king Susan Show.

Adam's catchphrase gets a mention.

We try and go back to Whole Lotta Love.

Mrs Drummers-mum gets a mention as we think about getting a drummer, but the drummer has to be 16 or 56 to stick with the pattern.

Susan gets in some baby chat with Adam and tells us about the time she was actually starving, which might have been insulting to the Biafrans.

Adam gets invited to Susan's flat warming party, John does not.

Where can the BGT shadow theatre people go next? There's only one logical place really.

We try once more to go back to Whole Lotta Love.

Every Rose Has It's Thorn gets trotted out as a warm up exercise. Then some Barry White Style easy listening gets us in the mood. But it doesn't work so we rock it up a bit.

We actually start playing music now, bit of Fans by Kings of Leon.

The playing makes Adam happy but gives Susan callouses, then she creates a sound which is not a good sound as she's feeling a bit like the village idiot with the bass. She had earlier that day suffered a 3pm panic so flat chat rolls around again and we discuss Shawlands nights out.

Remember when Susan knew all the notes? Well not any more, however it's not long before the penny drops. We feel a bit intimidated by Adams musical knowledge, not his stature, as he can't help but be the teacher.

A bit of phone chat leads to discussions about cracks and Susan makes a face as there are innuendos galore.

We play a little bit more Fans.

Susan complains because she wanted to use her thumb but was told not to.

Adam tries adding a bit of bass drum but it sounds like keich, or, as Adam puts it, "a tadger backwards". This leads Susan and John to invent a new DJ - MC super group "Bangin' n Shytee".

Susan lets us know that she "do have got rhythm" and John suffers a feedback fail.

We play a bit more Fan.

Do we want to do Bob Dylan?

Episode 9 (Episode 8 part 2) coming next week.
