I was fortunate enough to take some lessons from Mike Trella, one of the guitars who plays with Politicks who are a band out of Northern Virginia and the DC area. Check them out at:

Re: My Second Song (4 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Thanks Roger. I thought it fit too. I wrote the words first and then tried to figure a melody to go with them and it worked out. Using a Cadd9 in place of the E in the chorus works too but the E sounds fine to me. I need to figure out what to write next now. By the way, both you and James are song writing machines. Thanks for the inspiration and I'll try to come up with more songs.

Re: My Second Song (4 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Hey James,
Thanks, you totally got what I was trying to say as well. She's leaving in any where from a few weeks to a few months and I couldn't think of the right way to let her know how I felt.
I'll correct the format right away.

Re: Need rock songs with chords! (6 replies, posted in Electric)
I've got some pretty good rock songs on my song books but it's mixed with a bunch of other stuff as well. Maybe 15 to 20 give or take on the 3 books that I've published on public books. There are some other's books that are all rock songs. Have a look.
Good luck,
Jets

I like Alison Krause and Union Station but I guess they are not for every body. I've never heard a bad AKUS CD.

Topic: Is there a way to see when new songs are added? (0 replies, posted in About Chordie)
I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to know when new songs are posted but other than randomly searching or just happening upon them by chance I know of no way to find newly posted songs. Can you help?
