Songs Of Our Own (#2) - "Estimated Prophet"

In our "Songs of our Own" vote thread we had on this week, Estimated Prophet had the most upvotes.

Here are the general rules and how to participate.

  1. Estimated Prophet will be our "dedicated" song for the next two weeks.
  2. With the post flair "Songs of our Own" you can post anything related to Estimated Prophet; that can be a lesson, jam, performance, tips, theory, a tab, etc.
  3. This is a free and open community. You do not have to participate in this and can still post whatever the hell you want as long as it's in the spirit of this sub. This is a totally optional effort to allow the community to connect for a bit on a particular song, bounce ideas off each other, and have a great time.
  4. We will vote again on a new song in 2 weeks.

Here are a bunch of backing tracks:

Have fun, can't wait to see what you all come up with!

"Songs Of Our Own" (AKA Song of the Week) Vote Thread (#2)

Hey everyone,

Here is the vote thread for "Song Of Our Own", #2. The basic idea is the song that is the most upvoted in this thread is the one that gets two dedicated weeks to it, so that users get the opportunity to share tips, post videos, jams, lessons on a particular song during that time. This is an effort to make the community feel more connected rather than disjointed. Here are the general rules:

  1. We vote for a dedicated song every 2 weeks. This can be GD, JGB, Weir solo, etc.
  2. The song that is the most upvoted song on the thread becomes our "Song of our Own" for the next two weeks.
  3. With the post label **"**Songs Of Our Own" you can post anything related to the song that is chosen, that can be a lesson, jam, performance, tips, theory, etc.
  4. Previously voted songs are off limits and cannot be chosen again.
  5. Lastly, this is a free and open community. You do not have to participate in this and can still post whatever the hell you want as long as it's in the spirit of this sub.

Songs that are off limits and cannot be voted for:

  • Ship Of Fools

What shall our new "Song of Our Own" be?

Foolish Ship

Wanted to try out some improv with the licks I learned when I tabbed out Jerry's solo last night and add some of my own to it as well.

Hey everyone,

It's been a bit of time since I've created one of these posts. I want to start doing "Song of own Own" posts starting again this upcoming week.

For those who are new to the community, the basic idea is the song that is the most upvoted in this thread is the one that gets a dedicated week to it, so that users get the opportunity to share tips, post videos, jams, lessons on a particular song during that time. This is an effort to make the community feel more connected rather than disjointed. Here are the general rules, and some things I want to do differently this time around.

  1. Instead of every week, we can have a dedicated song every 2 weeks, so that people have more time to learn and post. As someone who... has a life and isn't constantly on Reddit, it fell apart once I got busy for a weekend or two. I am going to find a way to automate this process and do votes every other Friday so that I don't have to manually do this every time.
  2. The song that is the most upvoted song on the thread becomes our "Song of our Own" for the next two weeks.
  3. With the post label "songs of our own" you can post anything related to the song that is chosen for the week, that can be a lesson, jam, performance, tips, theory, etc.
  4. Lastly, this is a free and open community. You do not have to participate in this and can still post whatever the hell you want as long as it's in the spirit of this sub.

With that being said, I am restarting the list from scratch, so any Dead or adjacent song is fair game. What shall our new "Song of Our Own" be?

Reuploaded because i messed up the aspect ratio. Been a while since I posted. Took a social media break/detox. Anyway, I plan on starting up "songs of our own" again next week, with probably a cadence of every other week instead of every week.
