Georgia Patterson: Mekong by The Refreshments

I got this one down real quick. Quick meaning in this case: learning one song, changing my mind, learning another within about half an hour and getting it on film. So as an obvious consequence, 100% accuracy wasn't exactly the name of the game here.
I had a shot at vocals on this one, too - although I'm a newbie, so be extra nice - I'll get the hang of it. ;)
Finally, a big thank you to sound tech extraordinaire Lee Ann for introducing me to this fantastic band in the first place. They deserve a lot more credit than they get, in my opinion.
Thanks for listening guys :) GP

Nice one Georgia,

I remember when you used to refuse point blank to sing at all, ever, and now here you are singing on youtube :p

keep it up

[00roastedlampost00]

@TheSargent101 Why, hello :D

How times change, lol. This one was kind of a rushed job - watch to see how unsure of the chords I am if you want a couple of laughs. Fear not - I will improve :)

dont be apologetic, you have IT, build up your confidence girl... once you realize you are good you will be able to break out of the cage holding you back, which is only you...

one thing i know is that you shouldnt be playing by yourself..if you have talent and skills you have to let them out ..i wonder why you dont get in a band.i mean dont get me wrong im not saying anything bad.

Great rendition Georgia. Used to play this with a band where at the solo we would change to Stairway to heaven's solo and outro due to the chords (Am,G,F,G,Am), it was a show favorite. Glad to see someone else playing this song. I'm from Toronto Canada and when we were doing it it was an obscure tune. Rock on! Cheers.

@Gaviathan *snapped up*

WOW,you should definitely do some collaborating,you're a natural performer,not just good at what you do but you make it fun to watch too.There are allot of people who play along to the original song but it would be amazing if you could work with some other fellow musicians.I've done some collabs myself and it's great fun.I would offer to help you with one but I usually do acoustic stuff.I'm sure that if you send your vids out with a collab request your offer will be snapped instantly.

Peace
