Now that you have your songs from the band, start the process of charting. The information can be very basic, or very detailed. I've posted a detailed example of a chart at https://www.facebook.com/bluesharmonica
If you've not competed your Music Theory studies at BluesHarmonica.com (charting is covered in Study 6), then you may need help from one of the other musicians in the band with charting the chords for non-12 Bar Blues songs. Working with a local music instructor is also a great way to go about this (I have personally done both through the years).

Tomorrow I'll go through what a more simplistic chart looks like.
