I need sujeschuns for mi musikz pressentajuns OMG!

Okay, now that's out of my system. Anyway, I need suggestions for what to play at my next music presentation. Something more challenging, I am told. I don't know what to play...what's something "challenging" that I can learn by friday? Preferrably something popular I could easily "listen to legally" on the internet, and easily find a Tee Eh Bee for. Open to suggestion, and on a tight schedule.

what sort of music are you looking for?

My suggestion

Paul Desmond/Dave Brubeck - Take Five

I did that for a high school music presentation once.

I'm not necessarily looking for any particular kind of music. As long as I can find it and learn it. I'll check out your suggestion. Only thing is, keep in mind this is just me and a guitar.

How's your fingerpicking? If it's good, try "Duende" by the Gipsy Kings. You need to chop and change the arrangement a bit to synthesise the rhythm with the lead, considering it's you playing solo, but it's a damn good piece, not too hard if your fingerstyle chops are in shape, and it'll blow your audience away if you play it right.

If at first you don't succeed, you are obviously not Chuck Norris.

No fear, chaps. BigBuda has pulled through for me, recycling an idea he already gave to earthman, who chose not to use it! I'm going to play Star Spangled Banner, Canada-style!

A long time ago, I tried to play "Oh Canada" all Hendrix-y and cool, but it didn't work out so well.
