I admire you guys who get up there and do it live.
it pisses me off the lack of respect for the working musician

The Pub Band
i`ve been drinking
and singing along
to my local band
singing my favourite songs
with a pint in my hand
i raise my glass
to the boys giving it their all
i guess it`s not easy
playing to a half empty pub
most of the punters
only came for the grub
but don`t worry guys
you`ve got at least one fan
I`ll be back next week
and we`ll do it all again

Thanks for that history,i knew a bit about that house but not all.
It`s a house i often pass and think of it as from another time
compared to all the new crappy houses just up the road from it,
lets hope the developers don`t get hold of it
i used the photo because the song was about living 50 yrs ago
and it seemed an old house may convey that?

great reply,i guess we all do it for ourselves,as i`m a rank amateur
i never expected to share the stuff i do.But i was told not to sit on it
and put it out there.Every now and then a kind person will have a listen.
Thats very encouraging,they don`t have to like it,but it`s great that
someone has shown a little interest.
This could apply to any endeavor,i guess it`s part of being human.

peatle sent me this link,this guy described me and i would guess many of you.
if no one is interested in your music,this is worth watching.
maybe after watching this i will start putting my crap on soundcloud again.
he has many valid points,have a look.

Re: Is uke easier to learn than just a guitar? (4 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
welcome to chordie
i can`t give you advice as it sounds you know far more than i.
but i agree about the baritone or tenor uke,they seem to be more an instrument
than the soprano ukes.don`t buy cheap,treat yourself with a nice uke
you deserve it.A quality instrument will be able to be sold if you don`t stick with it.
where as a cheap uke remains a cheap uke.

Peatle & TF
very interesting comments,i`ve all but given up on media.
much of it is opinion and often bias at that.
Looks like around the world we are seeing a swing to the right
in recent elections,i think this is a reaction to the extremes of the left.
we are living in interesting times
