When is the third match ?
I love the Haka intimidation dance the all blacks do prior to match.
This pretty funny as well

BGD. Excellent choice !
Beamer excellent choice. I had dinner with Harry Chaplin one night in East Stoudsburg Pa. after he performed at the college. Superb lyricist - wrote from his heart for sure. His brother was cool too.
Taxi isn't that hard to play except for the bridge part - as a result - I generally just omit it

aka Willie Nelson's Martin N-20 guitar called trigger.
he keeps playing it bc he says he can't find another guitar that produces exactly that sound.
I'd put a picture up but don't have the time.

Re: Recording Questions (28 replies, posted in Recording)
with my singing and playing ability, I could use a hand held cassette tape recorder or a Nashville sound studio - sound pretty bad either way !
When I record I pretty much just use computer microphone.
Good luck with all your equipment.

at about the 2:10 mark I started thinking to myself -" where are the other guitar players and keyboard player" then remembered he was a solo act !
It amazes me that one player, one guitar can make so many cool sounds together simultaneously . I'm happy when I get the transition from G to C correct on a down strum. ![]()
Thanks for sharing the cool performance - something to aspire to (in my dreams!

TF = great pun !
Thanks for checking it out - I think Russell has a quote somewhere on his comments - getting old ain't for sissies - he is right - it requires a lot of resiliency ![]()
Phill, Beamer and anyone else
I am LOL bc you guys actually think I am a musician and understand 3/4 or whatever it is that distortion means. ![]()
I am just a pretty bad self taught strummer that can't keep time very well ( mostly because my right hand wants to play every syllable!)
When I write i just plugs words to chords and hope it sounds close to something musical
I am always indebted to the real musicians here on chordie to fix the music part for me.
my wife sleeps on other side of the house and I play soft.
Glad you are gonna give it a go, and as per my usual rule - I don't care if you change it - in fact I encourage it if it makes it sound good - have fun!
I have Never been disappointed by anyone on chordie that has covered one of my songs- they all have sounded great to me.
Thanks for the kind words - looking forward to some versions.

KIR - so sorry for your loss.
Seems we all have busy times and real life issues to deal with.
Just keep posting when you can and supporting each other as we have done in the past.
and lastly, I can't afford another guitar... it's not the money... I'm afraid my wife might beat me !

Topic: Seven Times { revisted} (14 replies, posted in Songwriting)
This morning my dog woke me at 4:45 and I had nothing better to do than grab my guitar and go through some of my songs. I looked at my song Seven times - and said to my self - that's such a good line to be wasted on the friviolity of the song I wrote - although it was kinda amusing.
So I wrote a new more appropriate song for that line - " I fell down seven times, got up eight" . it may need another verse - I don't know - maybe you guys can give some advice on that
Hope you like it better than the first, I do.
here it is
