Re: FingerStyle (13 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
Here's another great finger-style piece, this from Andy McKee with a skillful rendition of Toto's "Africa":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHFcg1Bg83w
I roared with laughter at someone's comments on this:
Step 1: learn guitar
Step 2: watch Andy do this cover
Step 3: look up song tab
Step 4: smash guitar in frustration
Step 5: quit guitar
Step 6: go to law school
I think i am in the Step 1 through Step 6 catagory..........but oh love how Andy plays

Hi Kim, wow i went through and listened to all your ukulele video`s on you tube and I am seriously impressed! Your voice is awesome, love it
and i am really impressed with the whole self taught, learning and sharing online together idea, very inclusive to other people who would like to give it a try or learn. I seriously cant get over how quickly you are picking up and learning strum strokes, making them your own and to write your own songs to boot!!!
Your story sounds similar to mine as in i never played an instrument until much later in life, started 4/5 years ago on the ukulele. Had tried the guitar and still love my guitar but self taught and play it badly in comparison to ukulele which is much easier to play for me ![]()
Amazed at your original songs that you are already putting to music, wow, wow, watch this space! I have only written 2 of my own songs so far, so already you are leaps and bounds ahead of me ........ makes me want to try write another one ![]()
Looking forward to seeing what else you write and perform in your video`s ....... i haven't braved the video world yet.... mainly cause i haven't got a you tube account (how bad is that!) lol
Your newest fan ![]()

Hi NELA, Phill Williams, TIGLK, easybeat, Tenement Funster and keepitreal ...... thank you all so much for you feedback on my poem and mostly for your understanding and heartfelt thoughts to me ......... brought a tear to my eye reading them. This is such a terrible disease that robs people of their precious memories and life. My thoughts go out to you too TF, your father and family. As Phill said, as they try to find a cure for this, one day hopefully they will.

Topic: Hey Mum (12 replies, posted in Poems)
Are thoughts Poems?
HEY MUM
Hey Mum
Just wanted to say
I love you
No matter what
Each and every day
You can`t help it
Nature taking its course
I don`t know what else to say
I wish I could pause it
Stop it from happening
I feel helpless to help in this
It seems unstoppable
All I can do now
Is remember for you
The good times and bad
Present and past
I don`t understand
I know you don`t either
This terrible disease
Called dementia
I wish I could take you back
My strength, my Mentor, my Mother
To that place where you knew
That place where you remembered
One thing I will always remember Mum
you were always there for me
I just pray God that in these days
I can be there for you
