I don't know why my last post did not go , maybe this will.   As to replies to post,, this has been a  issue for a long time, lots of views and average 3 to 5 replies if your lucky,
Many forums have messenger now,though forums are fast becoming a T-Rex, most are on FB, Twitter snap chat.... etc.   This is the age of instant access and reply.   Most of our member's are Anti FB. some are not.

We have about 20 +/- "Core" and active members.  How often do we get a new member who will post more than once or twice?  This is a issue I have talked to Doug about a few times.  There is a chordie FB but i only check it once in a blue moon because none of my friends are there.  It summer, no one is sitting in front of a puter LOL

That should have been kick the person who suggested Phil Spector in the patoot.

I LIKE IT! YOU GOT ALL THE ELEMENTS OF A GREAT METAL  OR PUNK SONG THERE!  I know you didn't write it or play it that way, please don't mind if I do.   That chorus is the hook and the verses are great.  And as Phill says, I may have to change up the timing to suit. My Garage beer song goes 4/4 in the verse and 3/4 in the chorus.

just plug in that distortion box on your acoustic!lol

THANKS EVERYONE!  FOR THEM THAT NEED A FEEL FOR THE SONG COMBINE THIS     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maS68s9jpYo

How to write and play a Ramones song:

1. Pick 3 chords
2. Use really fast 4-4 drum beat
3. Play guitar chords, strumming at the same time as the hi-hat is struck [ALL DOWN STROKES]
4. Play bass line using same notes and speed as guitar
5. Name your song, using (female name) is a (something to do with music or punk) template
6. Write appropriate punk lyrics to match title
7. Record on a shoestring budget
8. Become  legends

(MY ADDITION)
10 Never let Phil Specter produce a album for you.

Dont worry bill you are not alone!  I am the same way.  So I take the song, copy it to a word document (any word processing you use is fine) double space it, then I just play it a line at a time and write the changes above the correct space or word in the song.  time consuming ? yes, but I get lost easy! LOL even with my own songs!

Damn Bill,

That's terrible.  thoughts  with you and Dondra.

I have managed to dial in a very nice low watt tube sound from my berhinger amp with multi effects added in,, if you want a SS amp with lots of versatility, and not a big tag,, check that brand out. or the tube line called the Bugera V5.  Its a killer amp and i have even pushed a 2X12 cabnet with it and it was amazing!

A 5 watt tube amp is as loud as a 15 watt solid state in most cases.  the V5 even has a attenuationselect switch from .1 watt to .3 to5. so you can crank up the gain and not kill your neighbors.

scotties string winder and a tuner

Heck that's better than my version, I copy and past to a word document, but sometimes I like a biger font So  I still print a lot of stuff.

Try this, use a distortion or boost  or compression/sustainer pedal. most stomps have out level knobs.  use it in the middle, run the 1/4 To 1/8 jack to your chair.set chair vol at 1/2, and the stomp at 0. turn all on, and gradually increase the out level of your stomp till if sounds nice, and then use chair volume for the rest.

That should work.

Try at your own risk
