Re: Need a good love song. (28 replies, posted in Song requests)
I would suggest writing something yourself, but if you cant, River in the Rain by Roger Miller won my wife back after splitting up for awhile. I guess it just depends on what type of music you both are into.

After watching the news for a good hour and a half, finally they did a 15 to 20 second segment on her. This is very sad. Michael Jackson got almost month long coverage and she gets 15 seconds? What the !@#$%^&*! is that. I just dont get it. May she rest in peace.

Re: Chug a Lug Chug a Lug (4 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
I like Roger Miller. I had never heard River in the Rain before. I like it. We used to play Cug a Lug in the car for the grandkids when they were little. They still love that song.
When I first heard it, I thought it was a George Jones song. I had no idea till to day it was written for a Huck Finn play.

The toilet seat guitar would be a good match for my playing ability.
We have a music store in nearby Stapleton, Alabama called Picker's Paradise that reminds me of your Thumbpicker store.

Jim Ball is the only man I want working on my guitars because he is the best in this area. His wife, Lyle is most gracious and forever beautiful. They had a music store in the islands that blew away in a hurricane so they moved here just in time for another major hurricane (Ivan).
They host a jam session/open mike on the first Tuesday of every month that is well attended. They have a huge selection of instruments, lessons by professionals and the best service around.Thanks tooter,
Music shops make me feel like a kid in a candy store.(With no money to spend.)
Hey. I know that feeling!!!

Roger Miller is one of my favorites!!!! He has a lot of funny songs but the one I like the best is River in the Rain. Just remember, you cant roller skate in a buffalo herd. He also did the voice of the rooster in Disney's Robin Hood. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nZNwR2maas

Re: Trigger (14 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I was fortunate see to see Willie open for Phil Lesh and friends at Red Rocks in Colorado and he was playing Trigger. I think he should give that guitar to me! Really though, that guitar needs to stay as far away from Nashville as possible. Smithsonian seems like a good place.

Re: my space song (18 replies, posted in Recording)
Not a bad effort at all. I really like the song and the effect your using on the guitar. Is that reverb? Now that you know how to do it, we're gonna hear more from you right?

Selso's Chile Rellanos
Ingredients:
Flour
Blue corn meal
Butter.
Freshly roasted green chile
Cheese
First you peel the skin off the green chile.
Next you slice the cheese into stripes as long as your green chile
then you carefully make a slit at the top of your green chile and slide in as much cheese as you can get into it with out busting it.
Next mix some flour and blue corn meal together, then bread the chile with the mix.
Last you want to saute the chiles in butter until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
This is a very easy recipe for those who like it spicy.
Serve with rice and slices of cucumber or tomatoes if you cant stand the heat.
Can you tell it's chile roasting time in New Mexico?

Re: PHOTOS OF MEMBERS (179 replies, posted in Recording)
A quick little instructional... cuz some of you guys make my laugh my buns off!
If you click below the post box on any of the links you will come to this page Forum help topics which will tell you how to do some basic stuff on this forum and others. To collect the proper url for an image so you can post it in between the img tags find the photo you like and right click on the photo and
1. if you're using google chrome : select "copy image url"
2. if you're using internet explorer : don't use it anymore it's junk... seriously, ok then after you right click on the picture select "properties" and a box will open up. Look to the right of where it says address and highlight that entire thing, next while holding down the "ctrl" button on your keyboard hit the "c" button --- this copies the url of the picture3. come here and type the img tag, then holding down "ctrl" hit the "v" button on your keyboard to paste the url into place then end the tag. It will look something like this:
[url]http://www.UrlToImgPastedHere[/url]and as everyone has said before, get a free account thru flicker or any one of the thousands of free hosting sites online to put your pics in one place and then you'll be able to share your lovely mugs and beautiful guitars all over chordie.
Mods... if you want to remove this "instructional" and put it somewhere else I would totally not be offended by that.
I'll take the help with guitars while I'm here and happily share my limited computer and online knowledge in return.
Leave it to a chick to.... Just kidding.
