I'm estatic, today the graduation co-ordinator of our school asked me if my band could provide live entertainment for the grad banquet. The real clincher is that the banquet is on friday and my band is in a mad rush to rehearse. We plan on doing 3 covers, since we have no time to write our own material. Heres our choices so far,

Knockin on Heavens door - guns n roses version
title and registration - death cab for cutie
???

I need your help to pick the last song. It's gotta be easy to learn, catchy, and have the potential for us to do some improv during the song. Any suggestions?

3rd song = BACK IN BLACK, AC/DC.

4th Song = One Eyed One Horned Flying Purple People Eater - Fred Penner

It's always a crowd pleaser.

I'd say try Mother or Trouble by Danzig, just see how hard you can RAWK...
Or if you're in the mood to play something that would get the wierdest reactions, hunt down these tracks and see what you think:
Ohio Players - Funky Worm (try that with an electric guitar, I dare ya!!!)
Ronnie Hudson - Westcoast Poplock
Van Halen - Panama
Led Zeppelin - Custard Pie/When The Levee Breaks]
Helmet - Unsung

I know, those suggestions are a bit "out there", but whatever. Leave your audience flat on its ass!
