This video is one of the gigs I did at Wanneroo Folk club, and starts with "Light my Fire" - which has the words "funeral pyre" in the second verse:

Good to hear the audience joining in with you in your first song Richard.  Always satisfying when the crowd does that, makes it all worthwhile.   Nice to hear your originals too.   That last song you definitely were getting into it, well done smile

I liked that one Peatle, very much how many of us were feeling re voting this year and who for this time around.  I could relate to your lyrics in this song.  I like how you put your thoughts to song.  Nicely done smile

jets60, agree with Peatle that is has a hoedown feel to this one smile  Agree with TIGLJK as well, maybe a litte bit too fast in places smile     

Hi Peatle, I was going to suggest maybe using a slide but then I see Phill already suggested that.   The only other thing apart from finger exercises would be trying some of the herbal products for arthritis.  Doterra is the best in my opinion, though expensive because they are 100% pure and natural.  A lot of the herbal stuff off the shelf these days, even from pharmacies, though herbal have synthetic stuff mixed in with them but doterra is completely natural and sourced from countries all over the world.  I love their products.  If you want to know more about their herbal products, flick me an email and I will dig out my book and see what they suggest for arthritis.     

neophytte, nice little switch with the lyrics in that line in this song.   It actually works better I thought swopping that line out (I went back and checked the original version).  Well done, the song as I said previously on the original version suits you and works well.  Nice one.     

neophytte, my feedback was for California Dreamin.    I didn't see Cheap wine so have just listened to that one.  A nice cover, you did it well and it suited you vocally and as always, played well.  The cat very chilled listening to you on the couch smile

Well, I am a bit like TIGLJK, the list of road trip songs is long and very similar to your list too TIG and more.  I also loved American woman among many others. 

Mishalk good to see you joining in smile     

lol awesome Peatle, you take something so ordinary like glass recycling and make it interesting.  Love your insight into ordinary things and make them interesting.  Keep them coming.     

Peatle, there were so many lines in that song I liked and appreciated.   I thought as I listened and read the lyrics, WOW!  Simple words, simple meaning, from the heart to his lady.  I actually re-read the lyrics, loved it!  Also, Peatle aside to the actual song and lyrics, I want to congratulate you on how you not only write songs and perform them, but how you take the time and effort to put it all together with pictures. 

neophytte, thats actually quite a hard song to sing, I know as I have tried to sing it in the past.  It sounds a simple song but it's harder than you think because of how the song drops quite low in places.  I think you did a good job overall but in places in the song, maybe the chords a bit too low for your vocals.  I would be interested to hear you do this song in a different key for those low notes.  Otherwise, you sang it well and of course played it well on guitar.  Nice job.
neophytte, i enjoyed watching and listening to that one with Al on the autoharp.  Great to see you jamming with a fellow musician and what a smiling man Al is, obviously enjoying playing and singing this one with you.  I actually have a autoharp that my father gave me.  I have fiddled with it and can play it but I need to learn to play it without looking at the keys lol.  Thanks for sharing that one.

Grah1, good performance, vocals good on this one, it suited your style.  Lots of rain by the looks too. 

easybeat, that one was good, bounced along nicely, foot tapping, guitar awesome as always.

TIGLJK, you did it again, all the words!  Great song you have written again, you really do have a talent for writing songs.  I wish I was so good with words.

lol good idea neophytte     

Thanks Peatle, good to be back smile  Just had a listen to your entry for this month.  Wow, not only did you write a song, perform it and put it to a video, you had some good lyrics in there that were great.  Loved the line "Oh the bank manager loves you when its right"...... such a good line! big_smile  Fantastic to see you back writing and performing Peatle smile

Shahrozking789 wow that was very clever.  Not only did you include every word, but you included members from here in that entry, pretty darn clever and it seems we have another TIGLJK in our midst with that one.  Awesome entry, welcome to Chordie and FSOTM.  Love to hear you introduce yourself and tell us a little bit about yourself smile     

Hi everyone, I`m back now and looking forward to catching up on all the FSOTM entries whilst I was away and Chordie in general.  Will take a little bit of time to read and listen to it all but will get there smile

Thanks, neophytte for keeping it going while I was away.     

Though I can't get on much after tomorrow for this month challenge and so won't get to participate I thought I could at least add a word.  After last night and this morning's ~hailstones~ dropping like miniature bombs from the sky and hitting with violence against anything in its way, my word is .....

Hailstones.
