Orcon Iggy Pop Audition

A New Zealand ISP, Orcon, are doing an online remake of the Iggy Pop classic song “The Passenger” with Iggy himself as the front man for the project.  They are asking for audition videos to be sent in to choose 8 people to be the “virtual band” to play the tune with Iggy.

So, I decided to whip up a quick solo and send it in to see what happens   Had a play through the supplied progression a couple of times, and then realised it was time to go to bed, so I just recorded what I was jamming

Here’s the result:

I’m not sure if it was the late-nightness of it all, but I was struggling to pick some good notes to play! Can’t beat the olde pentatonic sometimes, eh?
