yeah i've played around with on electric and found out its pretty cool with heavy distortion (have to change it up a little of course).
Im thinking it needs a solo but im lost on where to start on one. Sometimes I like to start it off with a little rendition of the dixie anthem (kind of the same sound hendrix had when he did the national anthem , nowhere near as good but i mean as far as the reverb and everything) then ease into a heavy G...... Which if anyone wants to try:

if you've never heard it before watch any dukes of hazard episode and listen for the horn on the general lee (thats the sweet orange dodge charger with the rebel flag on top....) or look up "The battle of new orleans" by johnny horton and listen to the intro

whoa lol awesome

Thanks yall i think this'll keep me busy for a while.

hey check out house of the rising sun, one of the first songs i ever learned and you can really play around with it a lot

yeah old jerry lee lewis was somethin' else. Know a lady who's dad tuned pianos who said jerry played at the bowling alley one time and they called him to try and tune it back when hew was done. Said the piano was ruined... he's literally played it to death lol.
I don't know about being bigger than Elvis cuz sure he had a lot of talent... AND he had that crazy stage presence (and well crazy hair too), but he lacked one thing....
SPARKLY JUMPSUIT lol

good one dude....
My cousin told me one time that sometimes you've just got to take risks in life. Maybe you'll win and maybe you'll lose but someday when your'e old and you're looking back you won't care to remember winning or losing but you will remember having a good time.

  so party we must... lol another one from the 'apostle paul'

Yeah never heard em before but i looked them up.... very moving lyrycs. I know mine dont measure up to that but the idea was kind of the same.

lol yup just got done with  tune ive been working on but now im upset cuz its in three parts and i can't play an electric and an acoustic at the same time
Sounds really cool though so anybody that wants to try it out with a buddy or two (sadly im all alone):

ELECTRIC- kind of a cleanish bluesy tone

Okay don't play anything untill the acoustic player gets to his strumming part on each stanza...

   And then you know i thought it's be cool to have somebody on another electric on some pretty heavy distortion just hammer on the chord at the beginning of each little stanza section thingy......

lol yeah i have the worst luck with carismatic people....

One time i was visitin' this church in beaumont and i was sitting up in the balcony. So the worship service started up with the mentally slow people from a local nursing home coming and singing a special (and there was this one guy that looked JUST LIKE Jim Carrey and even though i'd never laugh at somebody like that *cough eheh* there was something about that that got me tickled) So as if that wasn't enough the mushy gushy praise chorsu stuff started up next and everybody stood up and this old redneck lookin' guy in front of me starts diggin' at his britches.... don't know if it was the way he was doin' it or the circumastances leading up or what but i lost it right there in the middle of curch. So i try to cover it up by coughing into this hankee and i'll be danged if that old dude's wife didn't look over (and by now i knew i was caught0 but instead of getting mad she bursts into tears runs over all snottin' and everything and startshugging me and praying over me and crap (which only made it worse cuz i just couoldn;t control it with that big snotty fat woman hoverin' over me havin'a little spiritual fit and everything).... apparently she thought i was crying because i was so broken or something. Finally had to run out of the room and into the toilet and just laugh till i had it out of my system....

i probly have a million much more hilarious stories but most of them are even more unrelated to music than this one. but it was the music that brought everything on...

no i think everything i need is here but thanks anyway
