I must apologize! I hardly ever think to jump in here!

Well I made my Ace post, sorry it posted twice, dont know why.

I honestly can not remember when I last posted, or what i said. I think it was right after I moved to Cleveland.
In case I didn’t mention it, I broke my own promise. I got remarried! MAY THE 4TH, we were Han and Leia. CHORDIES OWN, though long since not active on here, Jerome O Neil officiated as a Jedi Knight! It was awesome. Links.

I also have accumulated at least 6 more guitars! The Ace I posted, and I have done a knock off Mosrite Ventures/Johnny Ramone, then a Austin LP Gold top as a Mike Ness Orange county, The Epiphone Slash Anaconda Green, a custom Game of thrones MIM Tele, and one thats going to be a custom LP Jr dbl Cutaway themed after the Firefly / Serenity TV series and movie.

I also have started using Chat GPT and Suno Music AI along with as of tonight I paid for Chordify. Tech is great! I have been able to make some of my old songs that i was not happy with into very good songs, I then took them to Suno and after some trial and error, came up with really good professional sounding ones. So after that i am now using Cordify to learn how to play them myself better than when I wrote them.

some of the ones i have posted here that I put into suno are :
Skeleton Bones, https://suno.com/s/fC9Gmk2bVn8yCcqf
Heroes to Human, https://suno.com/s/1gwmGbBsoXbjMzRH
and Standing over my grave https://suno.com/s/U74KQGnDW2CLJHxR

This song is Black Rose. It was written 100% before I discovered AI yet it was the one I gave the lyrics to a guy at work who introduced me to the AI. and i took the first rendering and redid it to this. I just used Chordify tonight to get the correct changes over the words.
This song happened in a day! The wife and I were joking about a devise and next thing I knew I had the hook and spent the whole day writing the rest. I just didn’t known good way to play it. I knew I wanted RAMONES or Irish punk style.

When the smoke clears, there are 2 versions depending on the mood you want. I had been stalled on this song for almost a year. GPT helped me so much. it understood the assignment.
Seattle 90s type feel https://suno.com/s/YPhqO8OQttUIsY4W
more Country / Jamie Johnson feel https://suno.com/s/GuUlhLWewttV84Yp

Now I realize I didnt post all taht in songs , I just had a lot to catch up on.

Good to see the core ppl still here!
I always say ill try to stop by more often, well all i can say is the shortcut is still upon my quick links

Cheers everyone!

IVE BEEN ATTACHED TO THIS MANS MUSIC SINCE I WAS 12. IT MAKES SEEING THIS SHOW ALL THE MORE SPECIAL! I WAS 5 ROWS BACK ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

I sat in my desk chair and cried. Hard.

Do you want to know how much I loved ACE? So much so that My two sons (both in their early twenties) texted me to ask if I had heard and more importantly, “Are you ok?”

That’s when you know you have done your job as a parent ❤️
I used to sing all my kids to sleep with nursery voiced kiss songs. Mostly Shock Me and Beth.

Its kind of Ironic, I was looking at this 2 weeks ago. So now it was a requirement. Even if its a knock off. I dont care, it will look good next to the autographed picture I bougt at his concert.

We lost Ozzy and then to loose ACE. It is just a lot for the rock and metal world.

It was Tradgic. He certainly had a life worthy of all the books! Insane how he held out for the big tribute, and left us soon after.

I know I’ve been gone for a very long time and just came back to say hello and hope to reactivate myself within this group of old friends. Glad to see so many of you are still active.

Yes, I spent the last many years on Facebook and a music group there which I still really enjoy being a part of, but let’s just say I no longer use Facebook and so yes, I’m back home.

The last time I was really active on this forum and shortly thereafter was when I was going through my divorce and posting songs like crazy.

A lot has happened since then I no longer live in Washington state. Situations at Boeing accumulated and me having to quit My position and I won’t go to the rest of that.

Spent four months unemployed and at the beginning of that journey, I met an amazing lady and we have been dating for three years and I have proposed and she said yes.

Her name is Candice. Her maiden name is Pepper and she has red hair so I introduce her as Pepper.
Those of you who did go on Facebook have seen the post I’ve made of everything that we have done. She fully support and enjoys my music. She loves to ride motorcycles, and I have found the soulmate I always needed to find..

With the job search, I found my way to Cleveland Ohio working for a company doing an ultrasound on Ross stock, steel and other metals.

The cost of living here is much nicer than Washington and with the sale of my house in Washington. We found 105 year-old craftsman bungalow in an amazing neighborhood in Cleveland and moved in and promptly started upgrading everything.. The heat and air was fine, but we pulled the crappy carpets had All new flooring put in with the snap in high-grade wood type flooring the kitchen was gutted and had brand new gas stove, put in microwave farm sink, granite counters, and all new cabinets due to the fact that what was pictured was pretty bad.

Oh, and we bought our house basically site unseen we had two amazing agents here on this end and we did everything pretty much via Internet from Washington. However, we got a killer deal as soon as I can remember how to post pictures in the forum format I’ll put some before and after in.

So there’s a quick catch-up. I have a couple songs I can put in that no one here is seen, and I just wrote one that I actually have not fully played out loud and tried to sing at the same time primarily due to the tempo at which I originally had in mind writing it to be able to play and sing at the same time so that might be a slowed down version .
I’ll still post videos to YouTube that people can link into.

For the most part pay everybody it’s good to be back and I’ll catch up on everyone’s post for the last year and enjoy being back.
