Me too, as you say if have time I Wii proof read ( that Wii is proof I didn't just do it, it happened and should be will) life goes on...??

i bought my first bass guitar to play in a band that had no bassist. i learnt the hard way to keep time with the bass drum, if i went off on one (i'd been a lead guitar before) he used to rap me across the knuckles with a drum stick between beats and shout at me later; "don't just play, watch and listen too"....school of hard knocks?

here's a fact; how many drummers do you need to carry the PA into a gig? answer; none, they will only carry the drum kit. because it takes longer to set the kit up? if only i had a pound for every time i've heard that one.......

here's another fact; the drums always have to go on top in the van as the amps would crush them, so they're the first out and everyone else carries them into the venue. now read the above fact again.

sorry Bill, i'm sure you were the exception to the rule. 

In all honesty I can't say I've heard any music from NZ though I must have. One of the best songs I've ever heard is Friday on my mind by......yes the Easybeats so I'm not in a position to judge the judges. All I can say is they'll probably go with the fashion at the time. I've had lots of letters from record companies saying "your songs don't reflect the times"  try again, what they mean is... don't bother.
If you're asking should you enter the comp then yes your songs have great merit and you have your own niche. Bare knuckle songs, so artistes looking for songs can put their own stamp on the song. Put them out there cos they won't get heard sitting on a pile in the corner.

All can do is echo the thoughts and comments above. Bethany is obviously an undiscovered talent that will sometime soon explode into the world's consciousness.

Well done Bethany, please continue with your arts and crafts and also with your fine and astute observances of life around you.

I almost cried as it reminded me of my own mam and dad.you do have a way with words and you built this up beautifully to the twist at the end.

Great work.

Great joke. Two chord masters don't have to be punks, I seem to recall Hot Chocolate had several hits using just two.

Sorry I missed your birthday just now managed to get online. Anyhow, hope you had a great one, happy birthday.  Phill

Jim, the song, the performance and the video all complement each other. Well done to you both.

Penblwydd hapus as my people would say, have a happy birthday and many more. 

Phill and Ann

thanks to you all for the great comments. i hope i captured the essence of prog rock it's a musical form where every instrument and voice counts and (hopefully) adds to the experience....i'm not talking about my work. real music needs at least 4 people; live drums, true guitarist, a bassist who knows when to be complicated or simple, a good vocalist and if the gods are smiling a keyboard genius.

It didn't  last night but I got it through check out blues. Just checked it now and it works fine.

Is that a mini guitar or a 6 string uke? I like the humour, well done.

congrats to you and your family. i have 11 grandkids oldest of which is 21, youngest 3. cherish them.
