I guess it would not be a problem for the instructors so this question is more oriented to beginners intermediate like me. It would be nice to have some lessons without backing instruments kind of: "how to get away with murder in this situation" I know we have classical/acoustic ones but..... it's just not me You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

(again not in all cases) here are a few I usually pull out, but it really depends on who's asking me to play. Oasis - Wonderwall Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm Led Zeppelin - Over the Hills and Far Away, Ramble On Foo Fighters - Everlong, My hero, Times Like these Tom Petty - Y'er so Bad, Mary Janes last dance, Walls Johnny Cash, Hurt, Personal Jesus, One, Ring of Fire, Rusty Cage Soundgarden - Spoonman CCR - Bad Moon on the Rise, Cottonfields Nirvana - Where did you sleep last night, Lake of Fire, About a Girl RHCP - I could have lied, Soul to Squeeze I hope this is what you where looking for, I may have misunderstood what you were asking as I'm on a lot of flu meds at the moment and my powers of observation are a bit messed up If it is though I can suggest a few more songs if you'd like. rok You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I usually just improvise riffs, and throw in little solos here in there. Sometimes its good, sometimes its not. But people always enjoy it either way. Also, sometimes i will play lessons from GMC.
