Any day you fail to learn something is a day wasted Lieven! If you took lessons and the only thing you learned from that is that you don't need lessons then it wasn't wasted!
If your teacher taught you 10 things in your lesson but if you learned only one thing that helped you play better then it wasn't wasted.
You take what you need and leave the rest behind!
Take care of that finger!
Hi
A while back when I first started posting songs, I printed one out and the chopro format changed after {so c} to indented and italicised.
Unfortunately after the {eo c} command it remained indented and italicised. This only happens on the print page, not on the posted song page. Can anything be done to solve this?
Thanks
Bonedaddy
Can't add anything to that other than go for it!
What a clever song! Oh the irony 
I drove that road (US1) from Miami to Key West last summer - Top down in a Mustang! Actually drove from Orlando quite a journey. What a memory! Thanks for reminding me - must dig out the photos
Thanks for your enthusiasm Ken it means a lot to me! I am having problems with my camera at the moment but I do intend to start posting vids on the Chordians Youtube site.
In the meantime, knock yourself out, I'd love to hear/see your interpretation
Cheers for now
Lieven, personally speaking I started trying to play songs that I like to listen to. Then, when writing my own material I have a base to work from. If I like a chord progression for instance Dm, F, Bb, A, when I write something I may just rearrange those chords to form a different sequence, or maybe just alter the rhythm or picking pattern.
I don't know whether this counts as style though! I'm quite willing to learn from lessons but like everything else in this crazy guitar playing world, you take what you want and leave the rest!
hi Lieven
Silly question! It's not how many you know, it's how many make a lovely lovely song!
I know 5 at a time!
Thanks Southpaw, really enjoyed that!
Check it out! I put a photo on my profile so you can all have a good laugh!
Wait 'til I put up a video, you'll be laughing 'til you vomit!
Welcome to Chordie, Longboarder - and welcome to the interpostnet addiction centre!
My God, it's like you just opened a huge window straight back to my childhood! I'm off out to play now - mud pie, anyone?
Great song, here's to the future!
I think the newsworthy is optional, it's the selling copy that is most important! That's the truth all over the world 
Any song that brings up this amount of debate / discussion has to be great. That's what music is all about. Good job Bonedaddy!
Thanks, my wife's away at the moment so nobody to argue with at home! One day I'll write something nice
Have a nice day
hay bonedaddy how did set your bridge? I have an old 12 string I need to lower the action on.
The Floyd Rose is a 'floating bridge' in that it pivots to facilitate extreme bending of notes with a tremelo arm. There are two springs behind the guitar which provide the tension to keep the bridge flat against the body of the guitar.
As you increase the tension on the strings to tune your guitar, this pulls the bridge forward. If the tension on the bridge is increased, this tightens the strings, resulting in increasing the pitch.
As you tune in the top strings, the bottom strings loosen because of the tension on the bridge, and vice versa. Bloody nightmare!
That is, of course an electric guitar, which has no business on this forum. I wouldn't know how to lower the action on an acoustic which is a shame cos mine needs doing too!
Good luck
Hi Lieven
Lyrics are spot on, don't have my guitar on me at the moment but when I do I'm gonna play your song!
Cheers
To be honest, I've not heard the Courtesy of the Red White and Blue, nor was I aware that Natalie had made those comments about it/him. All I saw was the inflammatory photo which was portrayed as merely an answer to the Bush comment.
His reaction, like that of the american people does seem a little... over the top, comparing a comment or criticism to dictatorship and tyranny. Maybe he's just insecure
I stand by what I said in the song, though!
You paint such a picture, Lena! Not sure which is more tempting, the leotard and ears or the pork and wine
Decisions, decisions
Where oh where can my baby be! Lalalalalalalala !! ! Just practiseing my ice skating song!!
Wow ! did ya see that lutz and loop jump, God im only Massive Bonedaddy! Top Score!!!!! all tens, ah im giving up real work altogether! Got my calling to late!
Old Doll.
I think you just dropped your baby!
You don't think Toby Keith jumped on a bandwagon when he boosted his career by slating the Dixie Chicks and doctoring the Saddam/Natalie photo?
Shame on him.
Ah This is not fair!
Whats the betting bonedaddy this get together will be Stateside? Were outnumbered!!
Ps. I live in Ireland "The Beautiful Emerald" The other pimple on Bonedaddy A##.
Old Doll.
As if I have a pimple on my #ss!
Of course we're outnumbered but you and I will never be outclassed!
Cheers
Thanks for your kind comments, they are always welcome!
Nowhere, though did I say the American government had banned them. I do apologise if the majority of stations have reinstated their music, I know they've been nominated for grammy awards since then as well.
The audience they made the comment to were... English at the Shepherds Bush Empire, London! Opinion here was and still is divided as to wether we should have gone to war and like the chicks, I would see any alternative exhausted before sending in the troops. I don't think there were any death threats from this side of the atlantic though.
Which was my point.
Thanks Doll, I think I'll pass on the whole 'being stabbed in the stomach and simultaneously kicked in the fork' thing for a while though!
I think what happened with the Dixie Chicks was that the remark was portrayed as being anti american troops rather than just anti American Idiot (Bush Jr). This was what got the public upset enough to trigger the reaction of corporate america.
Just a snowball in hell!
Apparently it was worth about £169.00 in 1992. Not bad for a freebie!
