What is a great "starting" song?

Hey! I have just started at this new school this year and with 3 others, I have started a band.

Do you know any songs, witch sounds good and is pretty easy to learn, even if you havent played together before?

Thanks! :)

The fact that you haven't played together before doesn't matter , it's more about the skills of each one of you individualy ... Some songs can be so easy for the guitarist ,and kills your drummer at the same time .

An easy choice would certainly be Nirvana , not to mention that you can get very nice audience response with these.

Metallica- For Whom The Bell Tolls .... Anybody can play that in a concert , without any previous rehearsal.

nirvana- smells like teen spirit
bush- machinehead or glycerine
green day- when I come around
misfits- teenage dirtbag
goldfinger- superman

doesn't get much easier than that.

Or if you want to go retro try the old classics:
Smoke On The Water - Deep Purple
In The Mood - Rush
Rocky Mountain Way - Triumph version
Or just about anything early by the Beatles.

Anything by AC/DC is good. Its nice and simple for everyone, (well, maybe not the vocalist) plus your audience'll probably like it. All the AC/DC songs I've played live have gotten the biggest reactions out of all the songs in our sets.

"Enter Sandman" is fun to play on guitar, and it's pretty easy to learn. Not sure how easy or hard it is on bass or drums though.

seriously though,
the easiest song out of any of the above hands down has to go to Mother by Danzig. And what can be more fun than watching you or your band mates trying to howl like glenn.

i think that was the first song i ever learned in it's entirety. sans solo
