>>>With Louie, Louie I never had to worry about it, because I didn't sing it. 111/44/555/44 repeat ad naseum. The only other song I can remember that had the same progression throughout the entire song was Gloria (and that was 5/4/1).:-)

>Yes! The only thing that kept me awake was watching the co-eds!
>My funniest story of playing boredom.... I played for a little band that did the national guard amory on Saturday night... mostly country and some square dance. Now there is nothing more boring for a bass player than squared dance. Like you said... the same 4 - 6 notes over and over and over and over and over...well you get the picture. I was told... by other band members that one night I actually fell asleep...AND NEVER MISSED A BEAT!

Even when they changed songs (and keys).;-)
