Many more, Russell ... many more!

You've been a terrific help to me personally with technical and musical advice, and a birthday seems like the perfect time to pass along a big "THANK YOU!". And here's my birthday greetings, now en route to that black hole of yours ... somewhere in deep space.

You guys'll soon be ready for an international tour, won't you? big_smile Great work you've been putting together, and your interpretations have been dynamite.

TF we have around 30 or so songs arranged and there are at least 20 that we have played with other groups and I think we will try the local area first before getting passports and shots lol  our goal is to re-invent some of the oldies as well as introduce original material we are still working on a name we can all agree on all feedback is crucial to what songs stay in or out of our song list I really mean it when i say "thanks for taking a look and commenting" without critique good or bad there is no way of knowing so thanks I appreciate your time and comments smile

This was composed  by Jody Reynolds and Dolores Nance  and has been covered by Savoy Brown The Judds Billy Idol John Fogerty and Hank Williams jr. to name a few it remains a classic of that era so I thought we would refresh it a bit. We are still in the process of building our recording/filming studio and the ceiling begs for a coat of green spray paint but were working on it. smile
