Hi moddish,

Well done unfortunately it is too late to get out my guitar and play your song. I shall do that tomorrow and post a comment then. I just thought I would let you know about the formatting. For a first attempt you have done far better than I did, you got it just about right but the first word SONG should be in capital letters and you omitted the final /SONG again it is in capitals and the square brackets. It is these two commands at the start and finish that change the format and put the song in a box. A very minor point, where you have put admin should be your name.

I hope that helps

Roger

Hi bloodfingers,

After looking at the video of what you are wanting to play I have transposed and altered the chords to the start of the song. With your cappo on the second fret play the chord shapes shown and you should be OK

Hi Altex

Glad to hear you are back, we've been missing your imput. How is the Altex/James McCormick venture progressing?

Roger

Hi lx_rubin,

The last live rock show I went to was here in Portugal and the star was Rui Veloso. OK I had not heard of him either but he is 'the father of rock and roll' here and has been their number one performer for many years. Although I could not understand a word, my Portugese is terrible, I thoroughly enjoyed the performance.

What I found incredible though was that there were younsters to senior citizens  not only tapping feet and clapping hands to the music but singing along to his songs. Everyone enjoyed it and the atmosphere was electric.

Roger

Amen to that Bootlegger.

I have to agree with happi munki's expression wow is the right word especially as this is your first. Reading the thread I am also pleased that James McCormick sorted out your earlier problems with the formatting as I was able to just pick up my old guitar and sing your song. A little morbid it may be but the chords changes flowed nicely and the lyrical temp was good. I will finish by saying there is nothing crappy about it and keep them coming.

Roger

Hi Ken,

I just tried that but the access is limited to privileged users. Perhaps through the abuse me thinks!

Roger

I have been following this thread with interest and surprised that there has been no mention of Hank Marvin. Oh well, perhaps I am just too old and it is all youngsters out there in Chordie land. <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">

Roger

Hi keano,

With eight chords you will be able to play a great number of songs and if you have managed that since Christmas you have done extremely well. I suggest that you find some songs that you really like and play them until you can change your chords quickly and easily. Start slowly and build up speed as you improve.

Roger

Yes I liked the site, I spent ages trying to shake off that dratted <u>truebutfalse</u> though but it it just kept following my mouse pointer <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">

I assume when it is finished you will have some of your own recordings posted there and if you perform the songs that are listed in your music section it will appeal to many people. Keep me posted as I, and I think a lot of Chordie members also, enjoy listening to non-professionals performing.

Roger

OK Thanks I have got it now. Lesson learnt 'don't assume everything starts with www'.

Best wishes

Roger
