OMG - Front Row at Skynard - It doesn't get any better than  that ! 

Oneonta, NY  Hospice had fundraiser concert -  they played GREAT music, supported hospice and the military, very accommodating to all fans for pics.  Auctioned off two signed guitars for cancer research. It was Amazing.

Can't help but laugh when I read the lyrics -    I am sure there are a thousand towns that that have that scenario.  Thanks for the smile.

Well I re-wrote it again, I think I improved it - Changed the title for the third time.  Used 1st capo - played it on my new Martin - sounded pretty good. even though it's sad, I tried to make it more " hopeful" smile   If anyone out there happens to try it and record it - send me a copy.

Omg.  So not what I expected- but I love it !!!! The perfect song for gardeners world wide !  Love to see a verse added with Roma's and Big Boys !  Great song!:)

I made a change in the chords to make the song much more country.  Just a sad ol' cowboy song about a man losing his wife of many years. (Couple of small lyric changes as well.  (Sorry about making it blues at first. )  I'm not a good singer so can't really put it out there.

OMG --- I am so sorry - I missed the last page - 

I am so sorry for your loss.

Thoughts and prayers for your family
JIM

First - my prayers go out to your brother in law and your family

I am no doctor - but many years ago a man I worked with had a son that was very close to death - similar symptoms I believe.... baffled the heck out of their Dr.s in Philadelphia as well, a nurse was talking to the sibling one day during a visit to the hospital and the sibling told the nurse about their new parrot. The Dr. in the room heard the conversation and immediately said you have a new parrot -   -  found out the parrot had some weird tropical parasite that had transmitted to the sick boy... they then took appropriate action - saved his life.  I'm not saying this is what I think - but consider anything that he came into contact with prior to sickness.

Best wishes to a recovery.

That is sweet !

This is a guitar I made out of wood scraps in my shop.  I  didn't really know what I was doing having never made a guitar before - but it came out pretty good.  The fret height was toughest for me. Plays fair - would be fine if I filed frets more even.

It was fun to learn about how the electrics are wired and how the guitar works though. There's a lot of stuff that I had no idea about.

Anyway... can't wait to see your completed strat re-do.

My daughter and I sang this as a duet ( well she sang and I tried to sing ) alternating lines in some of the verses. She thought  it would be a great song for  a wedding, it did sound pretty cool doing it that way,  except for my voice of course).  I wish I could sing so you could hear it .  smile lol

I made a few changes to lyrics - I wrote it because I was so angry at the LA Clippers owner for his blatant racism- what an idiot !  No room for that anywhere in our society.

I like like it a lot , even though  " besotted"  is $50  word  that I had to look up.  I guess I would be stuck with obsessed or infatuated with if I was writing it - but now i am a bit smarter thanks to you smile   Can't wait to hear it.

The verse
"And I can say with  utmost certainty.
She will  make you want her constantly. "    reminds of the guitar you wanted for so long - and then when you got it in you hands the feeling wasn't there.   smile   

Good work my friend
