I just use a Roland street cube in the house or if I'm doing a small venue , It has mic .guitar and aux inputs , models several amps has an acoustic simulator as well for use with electric guitar and a variety of effects very good sound and not stupidly priced . It can also be used on battery or mains . Most street musicians use them over here .

been while folks Ya'll know how life is.

capo second fret
D G
Don't know why came this way
not sure how long I'm gonna stay
D A
been awhile since i was here
Em G D
and held you close and oh so near
D G
thought my life was on the road
i tell you know I just don't know
D A
wild and free and always gone
Em G D
I had no time for your lonesome song
chorus
G D A
but you always keep me coming back
even though I lose my way
there's just something about you
Em G D
I can't seem to stay away
home is where I lay my head
not where I was born and bred
it may be a motel room
or it might be my final tomb
you're going to make it hard to leave
you changed some things that I believe
that old road an unforgiving place
steer you wrong and make you fall from grace
chorus
now I'm leaving one last time
one last mountain left to climb
just one more rendezvous
and I'll be coming home to you
so, say a little prayer for me
sweet and low that I might see
underneath that cottonwood
I'll be coming home for good
chorus

Shreveport is closest but Dallas would be good ya,ll drive down together plenty room here at the house , 2 great lakes 20 minutes from the house. or i have a camper we take to Sam Rayburn either way be fun
Zurf wrote:
If I wanted to get there, it's looking like the easiest way would be to fly to Shreveport and then drive over. Is that right? Or have you got a closer airport?
I think BGD is around Dallas/Fort Worth. Maybe it would be easier to fly to him and we'd drive down together. This is cool. We're going to have to think about it.
Have you got space to put us up, or are we going to need to rent a cabin or an AirBnB (this is not a trick question)?
I'm heading to Florida in March some time to pick guitars and hassle fish, so another trip isn't likely this year, but if it is, it would likely be the fall. Is that a good time?

That you're both in Texas is kind of like saying you both live in Spain (Spain is actually smaller than Texas in terms of square miles), and so it must be easy, but you know. There's planes and stuff.
