In the UK bands covered American records until the Beatles, Stones and the Kinks came along. Apart from the BeeGees and the Easybeats antipodean music escaped me. To be honest this song doesn't float my boat like so many British records from that era, good but not brilliant.

You have a knack of describing a scene, though I come from a small town I can imagine  it. Over here they'd call that a festival or rave, the difference being a rave is just boom, boom noise, flashing lights writhing bodies and copious amounts of narcotics. Will you or have you recorded it?

Jim. I've never been to Madrid but you describe it in a romantic and passionate way. If I ever go there and its not I'll be very disappointed,  joke.
You've come up with a romantic and gripping story with a happy ending. Can't wait for the recording.

That's a new one on me too. Nice to hear live drums and un-harmonized harmonies ( if you don't know what that means ask) I caught the JFK inference and good chorus. NEXT

Pedr, even after a whole year that was great, I don't know how I missed it then? I hope everyone that viewed your post also watched the attached video, as you say talent mixed with humour...brilliant, and not just from the players

Sorry to pour cold water on your discovery but that is basically an A chord with 6,5 and 1 strings open. On the plus side it does sound really nice.

So! you never thought to come and say hello to your best Welsh mate...again? You didn't even say you were coming over here. Wales is down a bit and turn right when going south  from Scotland. You obviously turned left and accidentally  found London. Hope you remembered to pay your ULEZ fee?

Pedr.  Safety while on the net must be everyone's priority. I always think: if it sounds too good to be true its most likely a scam. Shred it

I like tech, I even like the infernalweb at times! If all sites were like Chordie; polite, helpful and above all else no bad language. Yes we all let fly at times with swear words but being adult is knowing when and when not to. A civilised conversation across the world with people of like mindedness is brilliant. Long live civilisation!

A great song and a great story. I read it through twice then read it from bottom to top where I better understood the story. As it happened a good way to understand a song. Again one of your best.

Maybe you were sitting/standing too close to the genny Pedr?

Grah, I know the feeling when your equipment let's you down. I played a gig one night no probs,  next night one of my expensive FBT speakers decided to give up the ghost, very annoying! I had to buy a new pair of speakers, cheapie of course, but not the same quality. I had a new driver put in a while later which cost more than I expected, but I got the sound I want back. I've had various mics  and pedals conk out mid show, always carry spares.

Summers coming the skies are blue
Then they're gray then their blue again
The rain is drizzle
The sun is hot
My grass is growing
My desire is not
I want to cut the grass but I just can't be bothered
The interweb is there I don't want what's being offered.
Must be my age Pete
What say you?

Brian. Sorry your lordship, short and sweet I guess you'd call your song and Pete's video, nice.

A neat idea to film an interview on a soccer field, I love it " Panadol cup" other pain killers are available, down the pub?

Your wording and verse are almost shakespearean or romantic/classical, beautiful. It will be interesting to hear your treatment as I feel its more poetic than musical. Great job.

Having seen your video Pedr, I have one question; how does he find his mouth to play?

Great poem by the way

MiLord Brian, that made me stop and think. I've never taken drugs and don't drink to excess any more. But your poem is surely a warning set out in a straight and formidable way. Well done and I hope the message gets through.

Hi, I just tried to enter my new song "Another Night" about a stag party but PUNBB wouldn't allow me so it's not there. I cant upload the recording for at least 2 weeks. sorry if you feel as if you're missing out, I bet you're not?

Hi Richard. I have nothing at the moment but songs are like busses there'll be another one along in a minute.

How about a song about busses? The wheels on the bus....no I think we'll skip that one?

Shwmae Pedr? It seems every time I put a pair of socks in the Washing I get out one less than I put in. I suppose I could wear miss matched socks and tell everyone that I have another pair at home just the same?
It seems since I gave up gigging I have been writing at least one new song a week. Well the last couple of weeks I haven't come up with anything I want to make into a song, so I guess that's why the poems, or rhymes, have been appearing. Normal service will be resumed shortly.
