Topic: Almost - Recoded on Soundcloud (6 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I did a quick recording with my cheesy computer mic
( Not that even the best mic in the world would help my singing 
)
Hopefully some one that can actually play and sing can do a cover of this if they think it is worthy.
I like it bc it's fun to play.

FABULOUS !!!!|
YOU NAILED IT PERFECTLY
(except for the part where he tells you that's enough for today and puts something temporary in - instead of finishing the job).
Then, as you are sitting in your car adjusting your seat belt and looking in the rear view mirror to admire his work, you see him dashing across the parking lot to his Lexus with his golf clubs, and pull out in hurry while texting his buddies he is on the way !
Great one Peatle, Oh Lord Loremaster

Re: the kids working me over. (6 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Beamer,
Not my kind of music, however your son has really got it going there.
Sounds like you were really into it as well. I am so jealous that you can spend time with him doing something you both love. I am hopeful that when my grandchildren get a bit older I will be able to the same.
Thanks for sharing - I love special moments - which you certainly experienced.

Nicely done.

Topic: These are pics of the strat I built (13 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I put in 1959 fender pic ups
The wood is poplar, pine and cedar with oak pic guard ( which took me 5 attempts to make !) 
I learned so much while doing this...... took a lot of work
It plays beautifully - soft 60's sound. I absolutely love it. Now if I could play like Phill all would be great !

Easybeat
Can you post lyrics and chords ?
I liked the tune a lot , but I thought the sound of ( whatever it is) the kinda screechy thing took away from the guitar and your voice.
Other than that I thought it was very good. Keep them coming.
PS what was that sound ?

Re: Drive into the Sun (16 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Just my opinion but that line that ends with
“spun the tires out of that gravel nowhere”.
Maybe I’m not getting it but that doesn’t make sense to me
Needs a tweak.
Maybe something like
Her tires spun, throwing gravel , in a hurry to get anywhere
Or something like that
I don’t know. Just a suggestion
It truly is a great song
Phil - send me a copy when it’s done!

That is hysterical. Great advice however
I gave away one f my guitars ( epi LP studio) to one of friends and figured since I did that I was entitled to at least browse the music stores. I haven’t plunged yet but I feel the time is nearing. I think I’ll have a bracelet made to wear when I go that says “ What would JJJ do?”
