Quarantine continues and after the success of our first remote Rock Club (Vol. 32), we did it again. This was the 5th virtual Rock Club using JQBX.
Vol. 36 - Tom Petty
(and Eddie Van Halen tribute)
The Theme
Tom Petty has been played more than a few times at past Rock Clubs, many times during the "we've played our playlists, but we've still got beer, so we let's just play more music" segment. His legacy and impact on music doesn't even need to be stated again as it has been done already in so many places. However, you can always find time for a tribute and appreciation. That's what this particular Rock Club was all about. All Tom Petty related songs. To finish things off, we each selected one Van Halen track to honor Eddie Van Halen who passed away just a few days before. That man could shred! The Process We used JQBX (pronounced Jukebox) again. It requires a Spotify Premium subscription, but it works flawlessly.
The Actual Rock Club
We started our Rock Club while waiting for everyone to log in with a few Petty cover songs ("While My Guitar Gently Weeps", "Tax Man", "Goldfinger") and even one of the best Van Halen licks ever, "Beat It".
