Unless you are the drummer (or bass player possibly), hauling your own gear isn't too terrible. It beats not having any space to use...and it's free!

Your songs to start off with sound good. Back in Black was one of the first songs I learned way back when. It's a classic...I'd still play it today.

Good luck and keep us posted!!

Thanks, Rich. What's even better is that the Bassist we're going with is the one I preferred all along. I agree that Back in Black is a classic. I feel that we've picked some great songs to start with. The songs we chose are some that most people should be able to sing along to (or at least the choruses). For now, I'm just gonna learn the main part of the songs and then improvise some solos. I can't learn the songs completely in just two days...
