Which song should i play on my electric at job xmass party ?

[Lux84]

At least, there will be 20 to 25 people. i plan to play something to them.

I have a Roland Cube 40 for that ocassion, i will not bring the valve amp.

So, there are about eight to ten people who really likes rock and metal music. i was thinking if the backing track would be a good idea.. and much more i am thinking of what song should i play, because it's my first audience to that people.

i am thinking to do some Black Sabbath, or even Metallica covers, but.. i cannot deicide what exactly. i know many early Metallica riffs, but at the moment i am more into that Black Sabbath Dio Era songs. So what should i play to really set the people on fire ? i was tweaking that Cube today, and i am a bit dissapointed, as i am playing for a year on real valve amps now, but i think it's gonna sound o.k. not perfect, but good. some suggestion for songs ?

Maybe i am gonna improvise a little later to people which i am more close to. today i am really not into metallica, but i know many of their riffs from the past. but they just boring me. so, should i learn some Dio era Black Sabbath songs to fell better and which one?

Get ready for 20 to 25 people yelling out what they want to hear and asking to play your guitar once you're done.

Having said that, I'd play "When Jamie Smiles" by Dusty Dinkleman:

Haha....... lol. it's not gonna be that serious about christmas, since i think we all have different believes, but those ones are great ones, for sure. the last one from AC/DC maybe. but i think i am gonna do some Sabbath. Faires Wear Boots or something, heh. to really annoy some older people. joke. maybe i am just do my favorite riffs from some metal bands like metallica, pantera.. honestly i ain't got a lot of time to learn.. so maybe i am just gonna improvise a little. yeah, it's gonna be a little annoying feeling of pressure and stuff but i must do that, so i will

It's a Christmas party doofus....No one wants to hear the riff from Sabbath Bloody Sabbath dummy. Act right.

If I were there I'd snatch that axe out of your hand so fast the second I heard a distorted tritone......
