Does it happen to you, guys, the ones who play the guitar, that you have ONE song to charm an audience? What PJ song do you play and/or sing to give them a treat?
When I'm with people who don't know the band very well I always play Last Kiss. I'm sure most of them might have heard the song somewhere, and even when they don't seem to know it, it's very probable that they'll like it. Besides it's really easy to play and I can teach it to anybody

Isn't Given to Fly in an alternate tuning? I've tried to play it in standard, but it doesn't really work.
I love playing Given to Fly, but I never do it because I have to tune the guitar in a completely different way :roll:
Hmmm, you might be right - but I've been playing it in standard tuning using a tab I found years ago and it sounds pretty good. I'd be keen to get my hands on an alternate tuning tab though, if this is the case.

it can be played either way....it's a bit tougher in standard tuning, in my opinion.

Here you have. I used to play it this way like 5 years ago. It sounded awesome, just like the original.

Cool - thanks! That looks like it's within my (limited) abilities - looking forward to giving it a shot.
