I have a martin GPCPA 4
love it,I wanted an all wood guitar,the funny thing though i noted the
fingerboard is Richlite.So i looked up Richlite to see what it is.
It`s mashed up paper & glue!

Topic: Beer(again) (6 replies, posted in Songwriting)
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

Re: Songwriting experiment for Chordians (57 replies, posted in Songwriting)
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.

Re: How long to write a song (6 replies, posted in Songwriting)
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 haven`t put anything up for a while,but ive still been banging them out.
This is about a friend of mine.
Disappointment
Found myself jobless
After 30 years
First came disappointment
then came the tears
did i do something wrong
should i have gone another way
but it`s just the way
things go today
the scene is changing
not always for the best
computers my hobby
computers my curse
They take my job
skill with my hands
no longer required
But i`ve been saved by the music i make
still got my music
still got my song

Yeah two really good versions.
I usually apologise for my singing & playing.
But i think if it a genuine version that means something to you
you just gotta say here it is, i gave it my best shot.
i enjoyed doing it, if you enjoy it too..... Bonus!
You`re a lucky guy that it got covered,the ultimate.

Gidday,
I just had an idea about an irish song it being St Pats day.
Just a quickie, wrote, recorded it, stuck it on Soundcloud
all in 5 mins.
My question is,when u write a song can you trace back to what
gave you the original idea?Or the thing/event that sparked it off.
