Members Potts Posted April 13, 2013 Members Share Posted April 13, 2013 I can't name them off the top of my head but I'll normally do 5-6 tunes without pause. It's probably because I do so many tunes in "G". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shaster Posted April 13, 2013 Members Share Posted April 13, 2013 I do a whole lot of segues in my Classic Top 40 band but usually not when I'm playing solo. There's hardly ever anyone dancing when I play solo.But yeah, in the band we hardly ever do one tune by itself. And I often just call the next tune based on BPM, type of beat, how long folks have been dancing, and so on. A couple of segues that I can recall: Soul Man into Signed Sealed Delivered (both in E). Down On The Corner into Rock Your Baby (George McCrae) - they are actually similar feels and tempo. Brick House into Evil Ways. I Saw Her Standing There into Johnny B. Goode.I also like to have a few guitar tunes I can start by myself so I can keep the dance floor going - things like Honky Tonk Woman....But as I say, when I'm doing a solo lounge gig, I just noodle around after a song ends until I fell like starting the next one. Sometimes that's right away but not always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Potts Posted April 16, 2013 Members Share Posted April 16, 2013 Black Water --->Love the One Your With---->Norweigan Wood3AM----> the Joker----> Hungry HeartSlide---> What I GotThat's Alright Mamma---->Blue Moon---->The JeffersonsFor What its Worth--->Ramble On I dunno...there's a lot. I'll go 5 or 6 tunes at a time that flow nicely. I have an issue with those gigs when there's no crowd response so I alleviate that odd feeling by stringing 20 minutes at a time together.
