I finally listened to the video. Really good, I thought. That first time is always hard, but they pulled it off. Great job, all of you.

Re: Neon Moon, Brooks and Dunn cover (10 replies, posted in My local band and me)
I know I need work, but I love it. It has been a while and I feel like I may have jumped back in too fast. Yes, my guitar is starting to open up. Sounds good. I do check each song I do with a capo to see what suits my voice best.

Re: science and inventors (56 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
In 1863, TNT or Trinitrotoluene was invented by German chemist Joseph Wilbrand. It is considered a high explosive. This was 4 years before Nobel patented it. The big bang theory is a difficult one. Space and matter were just there, I guess. As to the tools and weapons, you give man long enough and he will come up with new inventions. I really don't know the answers, as you can see.

I'm not doing anything this year. I will watch the baloon drop, New York time, which is 9:00 here. Then off to bed, knowing I will wake up without a headache.

Re: My sob story (35 replies, posted in Acoustic)
I agree with you, too, sat. I started when I was 11 or so and only learned a few chords then gave it up for years. I picked it up once in awhile and put it back in the closet for many years. i did this several times in my life. If I would have stuck with it, I would probably be very good by now. As it is., I waited til I retired 5 years ago to get half serious about it. I am now learning at a fairly decent rate because I stuck with it this time. I don't plan on putting it down this time. It does help to have a lot of time on my hands now. Do as Winston Churchill said. never, never, never give up.

Re: 2011 Goals: A Report (5 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Set your new goals a little differently this year. Tell yourself you have to learn so many songs before you buy another guitar. I tend to live by this somewhat. When I figure I have gotten so much better at playing, (no real measurement here) I start looking to step up a notch on my next guitar. I earn it, so to speak. In my own mind any way.

Re: 6 string banjo (11 replies, posted in Other string instruments)
I think a six string would be the way to go. I could be talked into one, I think. It just seems like it would be easier with a small learning curve. I love the banjo sound.

It's always good to know the melody and lyrics first. When you can sing them, then add the chords and you are on your way.

Re: I Spy...A Guitar! (7 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
When you are interested in something, a guitar in this case, you tend to see more guitars than if you aren't interested. Your mind does funny things. Same if I am all of a sudden interested in a certain car. I tend to see that model on the roads every where I go. It's a subconscious thing. Enjoy it. But don't let it consume you.
