Re: Oldie But Goodies

I don't think anyone has ever captured Van Morrisons style.  Nor did he ever do a mediocre song.

Oh, and sorry to here about your mother board going out.  I wondered if we made you mad or something.  It's hell to get old and have the mother board syndrome.  Take two aspirin and.....  smile

Re: Oldie But Goodies

Auditioned last year at a restaraunt nearby for a one night a week gig. Manager told me "Mercury Blues" by the Steve Miller Band was a favorite of his. I found the song on U-Tube and learned it. I played it at our audition and we did not get hired. Haven't played it since. I must suck at it.

Don't be so harsh about yourself.  More than likely the manager just has an extremely limited view of the original tune.   I know I can be when hearing remakes of tunes I love.  Thats why I'd make a lousy person to audition for. 

Next time you do a gig, go for it and play the tune.  You might be pleasantly surprised at the reception.

Re: Oldie But Goodies

Dear Ms. Lena (Old Doll), you should come down here instead of New York. It's plumb toasty.
Donald trump has reached the age, as have I , where a man looks like the South end of a North bound dog - no matter the hair style.
Kraft dinners are cheap powdered cheese and macaroni in a box that are filling but lacking a lot in flavor and quality.
If I had a million dollars, I would go back to Europe-including your beautiful island and bum around for at least a year or more.
