Re: general skype question (5 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
i always switch off when i'm done, but when i'm on, i regularly get the flash that roger guppy is on line, funny though, no one else on my list. and i keep getting "add me to your list" requests from people i dont know! so i dont...you never know who they may be? if you want me to accept, send me a message telling me who you are, and getting your boobs out wont help either...(you can try if you like) there is far too much phishing, virus spreading, fraud and identity theft to be too obliging to these opportunists.

i love gardening so much i planted a garden shed, then another, so that i only have room left for a small lawn.....job done!
on a more serious note; i detest thieves, what they do is true violation. we returned from a holiday in turkey, a few years ago, and we had a car full of gifts, but someone decided they had a better use for them and took the lot! when they opened the bags and found out what they were they probably just dumped them down an alley....

hi dino, & bud, sorry it's taken so long to reply.
thanks bud the title just popped into my head as i was writing the song. as for hearing it, i've been having lots of trouble with my new PC, i've had to change sounds cards 2x, and since my recording studio was for windows 95, windows 7 wont even look at it! i'm trying to down load songs but they dont seem to come through for some reason. i'll get there eventually....i hope
thanks again

Re: .Pet Peeves (78 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
this happened to me on the way home from pembroke last saturday.
i was in a bit of a hurry as i needed to get home to catch the last round in my local club.
so the irish ferry arrives in fishgard at around 1 AM. so the road was full of (what i expect were) irish people making their way to london for the olympics! i'd been following one for ages when we came to a roundabout, he went into the near side lane so i went to the outside lane to get passed. but, without looking, pulled out right in front of me as i was accelerating! i jammed on the anchors and managed to avoid pushing his drivers side door into the passenger seat!
the good thing to come from it i suppose is that i still have rapid reactions, at 61!

Re: Still have goosebumps (29 replies, posted in Electric)
hi mb2, the beatles were known as the greatest little rock band as there were only 4 of them. they were known for playing VOX amps, i cant ever remember them playing MARSHALLS? i may be wrong. if you listen to their earlier albums, once you get past all the love-y dove-y stuff, there's a lot of raw rock and as the 60's drew on and heavy metal emerged you can hear the influence they had on that music too. most bands even nowadays will admit to beatle influence one way or another.
in my opinion, lennon went a little OTT in the 70's. and just to prove that mccartney is not all shmooze, have a listen to MEMORY ALMOST FULL, it's one of my favs.
PS why the change of name? cows got the old one?

Topic: Conscience Gate (3 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I haven't posted a new song for quite a while so when this came to me (as I woke-up) this morning, and it's not a sloppy love song, or a broken heart song, I thought I'd put it up for some comments. It's in a 1/1 time, it's weird I know, but that's the only time signature that would fit! and it's a bit fast, kinda latin american...

Re: Singing and playing at the same time? Like but can't do! (9 replies, posted in Electric)
playing along certainly helps with the rhythm of the song and keeps a steady beat. i've been a guitar/vocalist for about 30+ years, but i still find playing a lead part and singing difficult though playing a rhythm or bass part is natural to me. i guess it's all a case of practise, practise, practise.

i've always loved running... unfortunately, i'm too old and stiff now, but in school i used to compete in all the running events, also the long and high jump, shot put and javelin, all i can throw now is a tantrum!!!! i played soccer and cricket when i left school till i found it interfered with gigging with my band. i also did a bit of boxing and rugby, but those games tend to damage your fingers, guitar won out!

Re: Download… a question. (6 replies, posted in About Chordie)
asaidat143, welcome to chordie, but i must disagree with your statement, i have been playing guitar for 45 years and quite often use G7 in the key of G, it's a transient progression to the C chord. if you check your music copies you will find them very often.
if for instance you want to play "SOMETHING" by the beatles (it is in the key of C but that's not relevant) the main chord progression is; C-Cmajor7-C7 etc. or if you like (transposed) G-Gmajor7-G7. so....G7 could and is used in it's own key.
