I did bang out a quick version of it,but think it turned out pretty average.

Topic: Maybe You can relate to this (8 replies, posted in Poems)
Gidday,
My friend has the great burden to be a parking warden,so i wrote this for him.
Of course these are only words,i could never be like this surely.
`The Dance`
Doing the dance
taking a chance
pushing my luck to the full
Avoid..... the parking warden
Move my car
not too far
down round the corner
But far enough
to fool.... the parking warden?
Doing a dance..... with the parking warden
Shall i put my money in the slot
or shall i not
continue the dance,....with the parking warden
Tell a lie, he`s heard them all
all the stories often tall
just another dance....with the parking warden

Gidday.
I just wrote this song,it`s kinda about musicians/sportspeople/artists.Anyone giving it a go.
some times they take a bit of flack or are not appreciated for their efforts.
Having said that, a lot of my music listening is you guys,so yeah perhaps i shouldn`t have
been silent for so long.so i for one are listening to you.so keep it coming.
Because `I Rate you`

Gidday all
I saw a story some where recently about Yamaha guitars.(utube?)
They have found a way to give new wood the sound you get only from aged wood.
There was a demo attached,they hit an ordinary piece of wood( dull thud)
then hit the aged piece(bright ring)
I guess with technology now anythings possible.

Hey Phill
Great that you gave a critique,like Peatle says i thought that is what Chordie was about.
It doesn`t happen much here but it should,if you were sitting jamming with someone
you would not hesitate to throw around ideas & opinions.
thanks,i know Peatle really struggled with this one.

Topic: The Wifes Christmas Present (1 replies, posted in Poems)
At Christmas my wife wants a present(or two)
I often wonder what should i do?
A voucher for sky diving
That would give her a thrill
Or Maybe
Send her for a bungy jump
Give her a bit of free fall
But don`t see the point in this
because you just bounce back to where you started
basically i`ll end up doing
what i usually do
Give her jewellry
can`t go wrong!

i like Van too,but theres some great young artists making terrific music.
Not the chart stuff or the stuff on the radio.
But good country/folk/indie/roots/acoustic honest music.
Also i really like The Milk Carton Kids kinda a modern Simon & Garfunkal

Re: New Zeleland flag (6 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Yeah Dino i`m for the old one,i gather 80% of the population is too.
But there`s going to be a vote,the government is keen to change
so leading up to the vote i think we are going to get massaged into changing it.
i think democracy may be the loser on this one.

Gidday,
In recent times i`ve taken to searching out less well known artists.(Chordians also)
I love the singer song writers,just vocal & guitar. Real music.
Currently i`m listening to Nadia Read/Courtney Barnett/Jake Bugg
What are you listening to?
I`m interested in looking up any of your suggestions.
thanks EB
