Nothing going on here this mth,so thought i would post this.
it doesn`t have any of the words required,but it is pretty random.
also i would like to thank you for the generous support,for a
guy that knows nothing about music i find it very encouraging to keep trying.
many thx Brian

Bill
great to hear from you,i`m sorry to see life has been given you such a hard time.
i cant thank you enough for the support and comments you used to give me
when i posted music.getting ignored is probably the worst thing that can happen
when you share a song or comment.an honest negitive comment is more preferable.
you were always encouraging,that`s something i have learned from you,i always listen
to anyone offering up music or comment.
thank you for teaching me this.
Brian

you can choose your friends
but not your neighbours
with a bit of luck they`re one and the same
before i moved house
my nearest neighbours where
a prickly woman and a barking dog
my new abode is much the same
some nice people but not all
i seemed to have swapped
the prickly woman and barking dog
for a prickly man and twitching curtains.

40yrs ago i was given a guitar, all keen i took some lessons(i know you`re thinking thats hard to believe)
the music teacher was an older woman down the road who mainly taught piano.
she asked what i wanted to achieve,i said to play a recognizable song (still cant)
anyway she took me down the classical music path.
it`s not quite what i had expected,i was thinking more` the shadows` that kinda thing.
this lead me to listening to the band `sky` a mixture of classical and rock musicians playing classical music in a rock setting.
still listening to them today.

thanks everyone for your ideas.i was only wondering if there was an easy fix.
i went to a gig last week and it reminded me how good an acoustic sounds amplified.
then i thought how to put vocal to that sound.
im not into gear so wont bother chasing this up,probably will never need it anyway.
thx

Gday
recently ive started playing a song or 2 live for the first time ever(scary)
im looking to use my amp for my acoustic/electric but would also like to
add my less than nice voice to the mix(a bit of reverb hides the defects a bit)
is there a way that i can join the 2 together before they plug goes into the amp?
eg mic and guitar then into single plug on amp.i have a roland 80 amp.
thx

you seem to have a huge network of musical contacts.
i like a bit of jazz  Diana Krall is my go to at the moment.
one of my favorite songs is  beyond the sea which is more swing type of jazz.
i also enjoy country swing. most music is pretty good.

Really good Peatle, I particularly liked the Knoxville Town one, Americana style, those ladies nailed it.  I would love to perform music like that.

i think Americana style would suit your voice.

yeah they did a few songs on the snoopy theme
would be good if you kept the xmas one in mind and introduce it to
your audiences come the time,as its a cracker.
i think only a hit in NZ.i guess a smaller market here and many songs
got a chance to be heard nationally.
rock on
