Re: Stand Up, Stand Up TIGLJK (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Yes very sad
When I was 20 years old I was driving a very good friend Henry Boone home from a softball game Henry was about 6'4 and 280, and very Black. Not an easy guy to miss. I was pulled over by Nassau county police of Long Island and they did not even care I was in car they made Henry get out and they searched him and under his seat. Never even asked me for my drivers license. After they left I was profusely apologizing to Henry and he just put his fingers to his lips and said " Sshhh It happens regularly in my life"
That was my first eye opening introduction to racial profiling. I was stunned and have never forgotten that night!
So sadpeople can't just accept others unconditionally. Thanks for the comment blue jeep

Re: Anybody Here On Facebook? (17 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Hi Bill ... great to hear from you!
I don't participate in any "social media" sites (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, etc.), and only take part in two forums, being Chordie and a fly-fishing site. We lead a quiet, private life in rural Nova Scotia, and while it may be boring to some it's just the way we like it.
Bill,
it's pretty much the same with me - I don't do fb or twitter or pinterest either
I do however like people here on Chordie - so I'll just enjoy this - it's more than enough for me.
Happy summer to you and Dondra! ![]()

Topic: Phill's song One More Game - different version (3 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I pestered Phill into re-recording his song One More Game for me. I thought it needed a bit more anguish and agony, as gambling addition is so powerful. He graciously did so !
I think he performed excellent as per usual on both versions. Here is the new version - thought you would like to hear it as well.

Re: That darn F chord on Guitar (20 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Jan
I know what you are saying girl.
I used to avoid the F like it was a disease.
Now I kind of prefer the F - I like it's sound along with the C.
Remember - the first guys naming notes probably named it an " F " chord for a reason ! ![]()
Keep on keeping on - it will get easier.

Re: football (soccer) (10 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Alas, Germany, Germany,Germany!
So technically-tactically , sound and tenacious.
Italy played great, but could not bring them down. Mueller is so darn good, the goalie is the best in the world. I do not believe any of the teams came defeat them - they can only lose if they malfunction. It is great futbol to watch - they are surgical in attacking and suffocating on defense. They have not been scored on except by penalty kick !
I hope another team wins it because I love the challenges of underdogs, but it seems unlikely.
Go Iceland and Wales!!!!

Phill,
You know I'm on board !
I want Wales and Iceland to play in final for Championship!
I watch most every game, looking forward to the next match!!!
The goal by Robson-kanu reminded me of the Great Johan Cruyff !!
Amazing!!!
They will have their hands full against Portugal Wednesday - but hey - anything is possible - impossible is nothing.
They didn't get this far to just come this far !! ![]()

Re: who did i kill (7 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Phill,
Vacation must have been very good to you - this is an
excellent song, Buddy !
Love the way you intertwined mystery into the scheme... and left it hanging to each person's imagination as to whether or not he in fact did kill some one.
As per usual, the musical portion is top notch. The easy flow of the guitar makes it so easy to immerse yourself into the story as it unfolds.
and I know you're not a big futbol fan, but I'm pulling for Wales today vs. England - just B/C of you !! Let's hope the outcome isn't as sad as this song!
Keep'em coming my friend, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Re: Pete Benson (8 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Hey - glad all is well with Pete !
However, I do have a question about another former chordie regular - Whatever happened to Gil ( the singer / guitarist from San Fran ) ? He sent me an email saying got banned, but no one ever gave him a reason why.
I thought he was a good dude.. always nice to my posts and requests.
Anybody know anything about him ?
