Hey Steelers,
I have been asked to play steel guitar for a Halloween concert in October. Does anyone have ideas for Halloween tunes that might feature a steel guitar? I play with both trad. clean tone and blues overdrive. I also play dobro which may another option. I have no ideas. 
Thanks! |

Before your first tune, play a litany of ghostly wails and noises on the steel ... that'll get their attention ... then launch into your first tune. Tune ideas ...

| I haven't opened any of the links above, but I've like Truett and George's "Ghost Dance." Not sure what tuning it would use. C#minor, perhaps? |

All I got???? |
I learned that one off Roy Buchanan’s first record. Jumping’ Gene Simmons had a hit with it in 1964; the original version came out in 1958.
