Re: first bombard (6 replies, posted in Poems)
jazz is three guys playing three different songs at the same time
Reminds me of that joke - what is the difference between a rock player and a jazz player? The rock player plays 3 chords to 10,000 people, and the jazz player plays 10,000 chords to 3 people!
Cheers

i agree just havnt come up a chord progression that flows with it yet still working on it
Great song well performed Mojo. I think a bridge and chorus would add immensely to this wistful melodic song.

Re: MARCH 2023 FSOTM - WORDS CHOSEN BY CHORDIE MEMBERS (10 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
Here is my entry for this month. Started off as a poem as I couldn't find a song with the word `Outrage`. So, I sat and wrote a poem. Then with a few changes it become a song. So, this is only the 3rd song I have ever written, completed and performed. It`s pretty basic, I can hear a part that needs an echo in it but of course with the none of the right equipment, I wasn't able to put the echo in where it needed to go. I think if this had proper music backing it, it would sound much better than on a ukulele.

i have been busy around the house my self and working a new song of my own will try to get something before the end of the month

Re: People's opinions on where to put their recordings. (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
CMT used to stand for country music television but i am not sure what you would call what they play now
Phill, now there's an idea for Chordie, its own recording web page. Might bring a lot more musicians here too. Hey that's a good idea, to delete some of the songs off my page. I didn't realize I could do that and then add more. Cheers for that, will look into it.
neophytte, yes, I did think of doing something along that line, a second account. But then I thought of the very few followers I have on there already that I would lose and then I will have no followers or listeners.
mojo, ok cheers, you do the same as Phill re: deleting older ones or ones you don't like that much. I think that's a good idea and will probably do that. Yes, I know what you mean re: what we think might be our best and others don't think so lol, totally get that
Showing my ignorance here but what is CMT?

Re: People's opinions on where to put their recordings. (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Jandle hope you figure it out and let us know. need some where to get more exposure. what i though was the best i have written got 9 plays on sound cloud lol apparently what i like and others like differ a lot lol.
as a side note took the grand kids to Dennys this morning for pan cakes. CMT was on a television close to our table. holy crap if that what passes for country or even good music these days there are several here on chordie who should hit the big time. that or people today have incredibly bad taste.

Re: People's opinions on where to put their recordings. (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
thats what i do as well
Hi Jan, yes that would be great, chordies own recording web page! I don't post much to SoundCloud or YouTube these days as I don't get much, if any reactions. And as you say SoundCloud want money for holding your songs. I just get into my account and delete my older songs or the ones I don't like freeing up space to put newer ones in. Give that a try?

Re: acoustic amps? (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
i was looking at the roland ac30 had on in stock at local music store but seemed a little pricey compared to some othrs on the market
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 .
