Hey Everyone, I found a friend who's willing to help me, he's been playing for a long time and very good at it actually, comes from a musical family. The great thing is he only lives a mile and a half from me, just goes to show you most everything you need in usally right in your own back yard, I think I heard that line in a song once!

Hi James,
I agree with the rules, they're short, simple and to the point without being overbearing. I think most anyone should be ok with these rules. I know anywhere or anytime you'll get the one bad apple once in awhile but I think that 99.9% of the people who use this board have been as friendly, helpful and as nice as one could ask for. I also think that you, as well as the other moderater's have done an excellent job of mantaining the boards. In so far as freedom of speech goes, I'm all for that, but anytime you have a public forum where children are reading it, we shouldn't use profanity, at least thats how I feel. I suppose others will disagree, and thats fine, everyone has they're opinion. Just a little common sense is all we need. I think it's great that so many people, from different parts of the world use this board, and get along fine, each giving their ideas, their advice, and showing at least on here, we can all have a common thread among us...music!

Hi Again GuitarPix,
I wasn't aware of the Peru company, but yes were are kinda close here in NC. I know south of where I am there are lots of turkey and chicken farms. None right in my area excatly, but about 60 miles south of me and even more in SC, and apparantly more east/southeast of me. I'm pretty much about 25 miles from what I've read is the geographical center of North Carolina.

I agree, I think second would be any one of several Credence Clearwater Revivial songs, I see them all the time in people's song books.
Cam
Hi GuitarPix,
Are you sure that isn't Perdue, thats distribute's the Turkeys? Well, thats ok, as long as I can still get my Ribeyes, I'm good.

Hi Flatpicker,
Welcome aboard, I'm from North Carolina where bluegrass is alive and well, it's played at festivals all over the state. I think you have to be more talented to play bluegrass than most any other genre of music, with all the picking going on, personally I can't do it, but I certainly love hearing and watching it. so again welcome to chordie, it's a great site!

Hi Zurf,
I love Doc Watson, he lives here in North Carolina, about an hour from me, He puts on a festival every year in honor of his son "Merle Watson" who was killed on a tractor accident, the festival is called "Merlefest"
I appreciate all the great advice, the thing is, is that I don't have any friends who play anymore. I use to have lots who did back in my earlier years, but you know how things change as you get a little older, you lose touch. Anyway, I've always worked through it when I hit the wall, and I will again, I'm that determined, though it would be easier if I had the friend who played, but it's great getting ideas on how others work through it. Thanks again for all the advice, and Zurf...I promise not to smash the guitar, at least not today.

For me its, Jimmy Buffett, Kenny Chesney, Jackson Browne Bob Dylan, Goose Creek Symphony John Mellencamp, Don Henley, John Prine, I'm sure there are lots of others, but my mind is tired now...I'm going to bed now!
Cam
Hi Col Wickham,
Two great picks, I like that one "Joe Cocker anf "Jimi Hendrix
Hi Everyone,
I just wondered what everyone does to stay motivated to learn more, more than you know now. When you have times when your just not sounding as good as you did...say last week..or you've just hit a wall so to speak. I know the love of music is motivation enough, but I just wondered about what everyone does to push theirselves to get better.

Hi AcousticLady,
So glad to hear you found your song, the lyrics sound great, I'd love to hear her sing it, do you know of a link so we can see and hear her. Where did you find the song..online somewhere?, I'd love to see the rest of the lyrics.
Cam
Hi Acousticlady,
I'm sorry, I did a search and found nothing, do you have any other information about the song?
Cam
Good one Old doll, I can see you must be a real firecracker, we'll have to keep an eye on you, thanks for the laugh
Cam

John Prine and Charlie Gearheart "10 extra points for anyone who can tell me who Charlie is"
My Wife says she would like to see Jimmy Buffett and Kenny Chesney together in the Caribbean, as we are fans of both of them and we love the caribbean
Cam
If you could pick two musicians to play together who might it be, and maybe some of them have played together...living or dead, dosent matter
such as...
Ray Charles - Stevie Wonder
Stevie Ray Vaughn -BB King
Jimmy Page - Jimi Hendrix
Got any?
How about the "byrds" people eat dove and quail, among others I imagine, also there use to be a band called "Strawberry Alarm Clock" H'mmm Lets see "Blue oyster cult" a country singer is called "Sugarland" the "Partidge Family.... "Blacked Peas" and maybe "Chuck Berry" I should also say that none I've named am I a fan of with the exception of Sugarland and maybe a little dose of Chuck Berry

I looked at the site and saw much of nothing there that was of interest to me, part of it was shut down. I haven't found any site that equals Chordie for songs, information, features, or the help from other guitarist's, and the brotherhood of the folks on here. I've been more than pleased with Chordie, and my playing since finding this site has improved immensly, hats off to Chordie, all it's members, along with the owner and administraters!

Hi Old Doll,
Well I see, Ireland Huh! another place I'd love to visit one day, I love to travel.
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you
In the palm of his hand
Cam
Hi Bud_Wiser,
That was great, I was really impressed, I wish I was only half that good, but I'm working hard on it. Thanks for posting the link.
Cam
Hi Old Doll,
I couldn't help but notice you had a link to the Island of ST. Lucia, are you from there, or been there?...I haven't, but I have it on my list of places to visit, as I have been to several of the Islands, I love it there, so beautiful, anyway just wondered, if you were from there or what, have a nice day!
Cam
I'm from Lexington NC...just an old country boy who loves blues, country, rock, bluegrass, roots. I Anything from Led Zepplin to Kenny Chesney, to Jackson Browne, to John Prine, to my all time favorite, that no one else on here that I've found has heard of..a band called "Goose Creek Symphony"
Hi Bud_wiser,
maybe you could give us a link to your "youtube" page...I'd love to see and hear some of your music.
