bridge Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Havng spend lots of time, ploughing through songs, and learning in diferent keys to suit our singer, I have come up with an idea to make life easier. probably should be in the for sale section however, may I introduce, THE TESTICULAR CAPO available in various colours. [attachment=146383:CAPO.jpg] Doing this in work so dont know if picture will download Quote
KingBollock Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Yup, the picture works. They're particularly good during sad songs for added Real Tears™. Quote
RandomBass Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Ironic name of the first thread responder I'm guess I'm lucky that our singer is able to sing in the original key, no matter what the song. Handy really, as I'm trying to think where we might apply these capos on her.... Quote

Hobbayne Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Ah! But if your singer is female? Back to the drawing board methinks! Quote
vsmith1 Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Ha I always thought that's what Demo Roussos had under that huge man-dress he wore. On an related note, I came across a great April Fool that was purporting to be a trainer for a drummer using electric shock pads (like TENS pads) tied into a MIDI track so that they'd play in time!

barneyg42 Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Keyboard player: what key is Hotel California being done in at rehearsal? Me: original was done using an Am shape but with a capo on the second fret so Bm I reckon. Best learn it in any key known to man as it's bound to get changed several times!! Female singer: Cheeky!!

Ziphoblat Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) How about some sort of portable vice? You'd have varying degrees of pressure then. Twist the handle like you'd twist a tuning peg; tune your singer up or down. Edited October 18, 2013 by Ziphoblat Quote
