Working Out "Ducks on the C"
FAQ: How do you work out your band arrangements?
A: Sometimes it just falls into place, sometimes it takes a bit of compromise. Recent exchange at band practice...
Bass: Everyone does an F chord there - it's boooorrrring. Try a C chord.
Guitar: I will die a thousand and one deaths before I put a C chord in this tune. It's just plain wrong.
Mando: Try Am7?
Bass and Guitar: No.
Bass: (In charming Scottish brogue) Come on, just once.
Fiddle: Let's just play.
Everyone else: Stop that right now.
