    Rock n Roll - Led Zep, my 2nd most hated Zeppelin number, and a stalwart of practically every jam night ever... ...Puke.

    I think we already have:

    Sweet Home Alabama
    Hey Joe
    Johnny B Goode
    Alright Now


    What else?

    Hotel California, must qualify? - (I can play that one )
    I would say Stairway to Heaven, Black Magic Woman, and Wild Horses. Stairway can be played at several speeds at the same time without sounding odd and can be embellished however you like. Black Magic Woman is a bit more timing critical, but sounds gorgeous with a few people playing chords and some winding the melody 'round that. And Wild Horses can be played as simply or as difficultly as you like. Though it's best to start with just using A, D, and E if you're doing chords. That sounds amazing, and melody can work with that better.

    Discuss what you can all play, too. It can be quite surprising. People you thought you knew quite well can admit to knowing some surprising things under those circumstances.
