are made up of enrolled Rockenbach
students that form bands to play together. The students are invited into groups
based on their playing level and musical tastes. Each group begins with a basic
approach to playing and jamming together, and then creates a set list of material
to rehearse. At a later stage, the opportunity to submit original songs (via audition)
is made. This is really quite a lot of fun, as well as very productive.
A partial list of workshop cover tunes...
"Johnny B. Goode", "Stand By Me", "Chitlins Con Carne",
"Watermelon Man", "Cantalope Island", "I Shot The Sheriff",
