12 solid hours of great music food drink and laughs. What a blast. Thanks Amy, Jim, Al, Steph and Kate for sharing your home with me. Was great to meet Amy's dad after hearing so much about him all these years. What a talented family!

Re: Sadly technology dependent (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
It;s amazing how we become dependent on such things after having living without them for our entire lives. I love my GPS - especially when travelling to strange cities. I will certainly be packing it along with my tablet, laptop and cell phone this weekend for my trip to Amy's. Crazy - I'm going for a relaxing 3 day weekend and need to bring 4 devices that require power and and internet or satellite signal. Not to mention the guitar that also plugs in (optionally)!
My uncles used to tell me about their days of camping when they would take a row boat to Fire or Gilgo Islands, catch fish or clams for all their meals and dig holes for expelling said meals. Times sure have changed.

Re: Nice customer huh.. (26 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I don't know about all that. The message wouldn't have turned me off, but I see the guys point. I equally dislike someone shoving their religious beliefs down my throat as I dislike someone sharing their anti-religious beliefs. Your uncle certainly has the right to include it, but he should be aware there might be ramifications.
I've been to business gatherings where the company included a christian prayer before dinner - I always thought that was wrong as well as there are likely non-christian and non-believers in the audience.
Religion and politics should remain private. Michael Jordan was once asked why didn't he take sides politically or endorse candidates - smartest thing I've ever heard him say.. "Republicans buy shoes too."

I'm thinking this time a week from now, the party will be getting just about primed. I've been traveling so much, I've almost lost my calluses. Gotta work on that before next weekend! Very much looking forward to meeting the mekids gang!

Re: Mistook Ian Anderson for Zurph (8 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I sure wish I had some photshop skills. Would love to chop a pic with Zurf playing the flute!
Tull was one of my favorites back in the day. IA sure can rock the flute. Martin Barre wasn't too shabby on the guitar either.
Wish I was closer -I bet Ian still sounds pretty good!

Topic: Toots - Will be in Biloxi this weekend (3 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Toots! - Hey man. I will be in Biloxi this weekend. Don't know how far that is from you, but if it's close enough, would love to get together and strum a few tunes. Do your plans allow for that? I'm not planning on traveling with a guitar presently, but could do so if there is an opportunity to get together, Let me know!

Jeffro, I'd like to contribute a pick to the collection.
Awesome Toney - Bring your contribution to the next LBP gig and I'll be sure to include it. If you've got a worn out rig that you normally use, I'd imagine that would provoke some interst. (Like WTF is THAT?). They are certainly one of a kind contraptions.

Re: Picks Around the World (412 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
This time it's on me - I've been traveling for work the last 12 weeks in a row, 16 weeks out of the last 18. The box is on my desk at home and I honestly have not had the time to go through it or make it to the post office with their limited hours. My travels will be ending soon (couple more weeks max) at which point I will get it in the mail to whitewater.
I do not recommend trying to manage the construction of 3 student housing projects that all must finish at the same time - it's been kickin' my butt.

Re: Heat Wave!! (21 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I live on the gulf coast of Florida, which everyone thinks is so unbearably hot in the summer. Thing is I've been traveling to Texas regularly for the past few months. Living on the water keeps the temps relatively moderate, generally high 80's to low 90's here on the beach. A beating afternoon sun in Austin or Houston when it's pushing 100 with absolutely no breeze makes me glad to come home to the relative cool of FLA! The heat in Texas has been brutal and it's only gonna get worse.

That site has many Bob Schneider songs, but only (2) from the album you are seeking.

Re: another busted string (14 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Thats what guitar strings are for - beat 'em until submission then keep beating them til they break.
Then put on a new set of oh so sweet sounding strings, repeat.

Re: I've missed you guys (11 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Good to hear from you bud - I always enjoyed your solo vids and was excited for you when you found a band to front. You are a genuine chordie success story! Congrats on the marriage as well! Sounds like your life is going great!
As for what you have missed, the first thing that comes to mind is chordiestock 2013 that was held in February. It was an awesome blast to meet and play with fellow chordians from far away that have been virtual friends with for years. Check out the thread and photos here:

Would love to see some new vids of you and the band! Stay in touch.
