Re: style of play

Mainly country rock, 50's, 60's 70's, 80's, pop, heavy metal with the odd punk piece thrown in for good measure. Problem is that it is usually just me that knows which song I am playing. Still it makes me happy.

Re: style of play

"Working Man" about the life of a Miner badeye, A great song, althought somewhat sad! You must know this?
Have you ever listened to any of the Choirs from Wales, England? Most of them miners in there day!  Super Singers! if not?  give yourself a treat!.  "Maggie Thatcher" managed to put a stop to these "Magnificent Men" and wiped out huge areas of mining Families!?  We also had a great mining community Known as "The Arigna Mines"  In the County Of Leitrim, Ireland .  "OOps"  Sorry someone pushed me off my soap box? Lol

Re: style of play

Yes Old Doll "Working Man" is a beautiful song by a Cape Breton lady Rita MacNeil.It always remindes me of my dad who is off to that coal mine in heaven. I bet he is loading coal right know. Raised nine kids on a coal miners pay and not one day went hungry.Another song that reminds me of dad is "The Springhill Disaster" for he was a dreagerman and dug for days to find 11 traped miners. Prince Philip of England presented him and six others with a ring of bravery that he passed to me that I will treasure for ever. I sure do miss him.


Take Care... Badeye.
