Yup,
plying guitar, even when you aren't very good at it sure comes in handy for stress relief !
That was quite a project !

BTW - A HUGE WELCOME Riverdales !

I see you have been here many times, but it's the first time I've " met you ! 

Thanks for sharing

LOL Jeff

My wife is on a first name basis with the UPS delivery guy - he drops stuff off nearly every day.

It's ridiculous.

Nicely described.

Jeff,
I hope you you understood what I meant, it was your song that I was talking about that flows very well, I just was comparing it to the other.

Again, nicely done.

The music to this song is quite unique.... it took me to envisioning a soundtrack for an older movie- almost vaudevillian-style.
I could picture a singer like Al Jolson or Vaughn Monroe singing this. 
(This is a similar song it reminded me of   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9WRwRdpl3k  )
it nicely flows from one thought to another.

Well done.

Sounds like this knight needs a new castle to find a damsel that truly needs him.
Interesting correlation in the lyrics.

Get on your steed and ride, young man ride !
It seems the known keeps haunting the old castle.  Search for new opportunity,

Just my humble interpretation. 

Thanks for sharing - I'd like to hear how it is played and sung.
I'm sure it is "metalized" ( and oh the irony there - metal ARMOR, METAL SONG! smile ) somehow
Jim

Thanks for all the comments - it is awesome to see chordie come alive !

Russell - this baby plays smother than baby skin !

I am so pleased with this guitar.   Even easy to play barre chords- which I struggle with usually.

JJJ  - so good to hear from you  !  You are at the top of the food chain on NGD  for sure !! Hail to the King!

Beamer - I sure wish I knew how you metalize !!   

ALL - Wouldn't it be a great day if some how we all were able to get together !!    it would be the definition of awesomeness!

Sounds great - still loving the supermarket blues song - it is a classic !

I would love to be able to do what you guys that are real musicians do - It looks like so much fun!

JIm     

Well it took forever - but here is my version of the song I wrote

Apologies for my playing and singing, but the message is important and I wanted to get it out there.

It could be any major city - they all have danger zones.
There are some gangs  and drug deals it makes it quite treacherous and savage sometimes.

Nice song -

Best Regards to Anne !!

Would that work on a telecaster ?

Might be an amusing sound.

Jim     

Wait.  Where do you put the rag?
By the sound hole?
