Ralph Covert's Acoustic Army
What's involved in being part of the Acoustic Army? It's quite simple, really. It all comes from audience participation. Before a show, Ralph Covert of the Bad Examples releases a couple song charts (with guitar chords and lyrics) online for anyone to download and learn. Once you've learned the songs, then all you have to do is come to the show, bring your guitar and be ready to play and sing along with Ralph! If you can't play, you can still sing along or even just clap your hands at the appropriate times. Ralph performs songs from the Bad Examples, his solo work, his theater songs, Ralph's World songs, and often introduces brand new songs too.
There's an upcoming Acoustic Army show this Friday, July 20th, 2012 at FitzGerald's Side Bar in Berwyn, Illinois, so there's still time to learn the songs! There's usually a gathering every month.
