Hey Rock Chick, I used to play Firth of Fifth in a band I was in, "Mozart's Tights".

Luckily for me I am the guitarist



Luckily?

That places on your shoulders the responsibility for playing that solo - I trust you treated it with the respect and awe it deserved

Of course!!!!!!!!!!

I used to play the original studio, Hackett version, on the last gig I did the Daryl Sturmer version, went down well!!!!!!!!!!

We used to do the Slipper Men/In the cage medley too, always went down well.

I've known how to play 'Aqualung' by Jethro Tull on my trombone for a while, but just the other day I figured out how to play 'In the Flesh' by Pink Floyd (one of the pieces I'm working on right now has a measure that is almost exactly the same as it and I figured out the rest from there).

Some of my friends and I are currently attempting to arrange 'Immigrant Song' by Led Zeppelin for band.

Just finished up with : "Nyctophobia" on Larry Coryell/11th House's "Level One", talk about a TWISTED melody line!!!!

In Progress: "Green Eyed Lady" by Sugarloaf, a Hammond lover's feast and some pretty cool guitar stuff in there too.

On Deck: "Bryden 2-step For Amphibians Pt II"  AND "Squarer For Maude" by National Health, I MUST BE FREAKIN' NUTS!!!!!  
People are puzzled why I don't dig the Stones, well, I listened to the Stones, I tried, and I tried, and I tried, and--I Can't Get No Satisfaction!

Acoustic guitar:

The verse of "Brain damage" (Pink Floyd), all of "Horizons" (Steve Hackett)... I'm playing "Horizons" as an offertory at church two Sundays from now...

Bass guitar:

This is my main instrument. I know most of "The Wall" (Pink Floyd), which is easy, easy stuff; I can play all of "Money" as well, and the main riff (adapted to bass) from "Wish You Were Here"; my main stuff I can play is all of part one of "Thick as a Brick" (Jethro Tull), all of "Close to the Edge" (Yes), plus "Gates of Delirium", which I know all of the "pre-war" part, and am working on the "war" instrumental and the "peace" song part ("Soon"); and "Roundabout". And I've only been playing 10 months!

Keyboards:

Uh...I can play the church organ part from "Close to the Edge" and the main part of "Free Hand" (Gentle Giant)...that's about it...
