We've got all wood floors upstairs and all porcelain tile downstairs.  Hard floors makes a difference, but all the walls are drywall and pretty dead sounding.  We used to have a wood paneled wall that was a nice thick heart of pine wood.  That made the sound pretty lively downstairs, but it was lost to a water event and carpenter ants.

Good luck picking guitar back up. 

Now that the initial unpleasantries are out of the way, come back soon and let us know how you're doing.  Also, check out the new feature of Song of the Month.  It's a fun little bit where we each take our own approach to a cover that can be found in the Chordie song searches. 

As for the KISS approach, it wasn't kissing any more.  It was just grouching at the servers and the old software kept kicking it in the hey-now!, so changes were necessary.  I liked the old site too, but the new site does seem to work better, more quickly, and doesn't crash. 

As for you having a hard time of it for the past several years, I hope that's behind you now.  Look to the future.  I can tell you that I was in a bad place this past winter, but the good grace and generosity of some Chordians when we got together in March helped pull me out of it.  The people here do genuinely care about one another.  So, I guess we got pretty defensive.  Sorry about that.

I can tell you're an electric guy.  No wood floors?

I saw you had a comment about more practice.  BAH!  Practice is for sissies!  Not when you can have your girls over and jam a while.  It sounded like you were having fun, and fun is what this whole music thing is about.

My index finger on my right hand is pretty continuously bruised for that reason.  Any advice I give on the topic should be immediately ignored, so I won't give any. 

Good luck.

Sorry your Mom is having a tough time Jim.  Prayers for her from Virginia.

I'm out. I know I said it was unlikely for me, but I've been holding out hope because it's something I very much want to do.  However, there's no way I'm going to be able to make it this year.  I just got a new project at work and it's going to consume me through the end of August.

$90 is doable!  May as well get it done and fix up the axe he's got.

Cool version Roger.  You know what song would sound really great with your approach?  Knocking on Heaven's Door.

Long live the bread machine.

Every August at the Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts they have the Swamp Romp where they get three to five Cajun and Zydeco bands to play.  It's always a good time and reasonably priced especially if you get lawn seats. 

In our county there's also a large winery named Breaux, the owner after which it is named is from Louisiana.  They have a Cajun festival each summer as well.  It's a bit pricey, but I hear it's a good time.  I haven't been because of the cost.

None of those fake chords, please.   :-)
