but u didn`t say what your reasons are?
I think title helps eg BEER always gets a good response!
I tend to follow people about 10 of you guys,it`s great to give others support.
There`s a bunch of people on here who never contribute,unless it`s to complain.
rock on & keep up the writing.  B.

The thing i love about Chordie is i learn stuff.
Never heard of the Digitech Trio till you guys talked about it.
Looked it up on utube, just had to get one.
Not cheap, 400 NZ$ but hope to have some fun with it.
thanks!

I wonder if any of you guitar players have any knowledge of Red Witch Pedals?
They are a small NZ company,users of their pedals are many & varied including Police-U2.
I`ve made an investment thru a crowd funding organisation.
Love to hear your opinion.
Thanks.

I enjoyed Phills piece on beer & all the replies.It seems a pretty popular subject.
So i banged this out.Played it just with d chord as it`s sort of a story.

`The Rumour`

There`s a rumour doing the rounds
don`t know if it`s true
better pay close attention
cause it may effect you
Ain`t no bars in heaven
beers are too few
Ain`t no wine or woman
If you a smoker you out of luck too

So please take note of this rumour
just in case it`s true
I`ll give into my fears
maybe stay around
another hundred years or two

don`t sound much like heaven to me
sounds more like hell
so warn your friends
This is one rumour ....you can tell

Gidday Chordie writers.
I`ve been following progress on your song.
I`ve taken up Roger on the idea of doing a cover. done it in two takes so it`s far from perfect and i`ve done it
with my limitations.
How about some more versions now i laid myself bare!
it`s on my soundcloud site for a few days.

Gidday Real

I write & record the whole thing in 5 mins.I only do 1 take.
Don`t know where it comes from or how it happens.
I don`t know how or whats going to happen when i turn on the recorder.
It`s real seat of the pants stuff, but it`s the way i do it.
I find it pretty exciting though.

I think you got that wrong.
The moral of the story is surely.
