Yes I'll be fine too, Thanks Phil
My wife still has a good job, and I am still workin some, but not nearly enough. When i was pounded this song out, I was thinkin what if I didn't have it so good and she did kick my but out.
She's put up with me for thirty years so I think I'm safe. I think ?
You must be kiddin, in the real world, Amigo I haven't heard a lot of people talk that way, you know what I mean. I like ah come from Nort Dakoata and yoose hear alot of Uff Dah's and yah shore's up dare. I guess we was too close to Minnysoata!
Thanks Kenny,
I did this to kinda make light of the situation alot of folks are in and I am not a downer. I was fiddlin with my guitar and it just kinda come out. I believe in Bob Marley "Don't worry bout a thing, Every little thing is gonna be alright."
If you know your way around Sturgis is a lot of fun. I've been going to the rally for 30 some years now and the Black Hills are a little piece of heaven.
I heard Tyler broke his shoulder and got bruised up some. Maybe when your in your sixties you should maybe sit down and do your jammin or maybe just chill out a little.
Hello everyone, I have a lot of friends, family and myself that have been affected by the economy and with unemployment reaching 10 percent. THis one's for all that have felt the crunch.

Hey Paul,
I think everyone gets frustrated at times and everyone has a different way of getting back at it. One thing I think is the most important is to have fun. Playing along with others is a great way to learn when your starting, most every player I know would be glad to have someone strum along.
They will keep the rhythm going and it is a great way to have to keep up with the beat and tempo. Even if you can't keep up they will keep on going and you will be jammin before you know it.
Good Luck

Ireland Declares War On France?
Jacques Chirac, the French President, is sitting in his office when his telephone rings.
"Hallo, Mr. Chirac!" a heavily accented voice said. "This is Paddy down at the Harp Pub in County Clare, Ireland. I am ringing to inform you that we are officially declaring war on you!"
"Well, Paddy," Chirac replied, "Theez eez indeed important news! How big is your army?"
"Right now," says Paddy, after a moment's calculation, "there's meself, me cousin Sean, me next-door neighbor Seamus, and the entire darts team from the pub. That makes eight!"
Chirac paused. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 100,000 men in my army waiting to move on my command."
"Begorrah!" says Paddy. "I'll have to ring you back."Sure enough, the next day, Paddy calls again. "Mr. Chirac, the war is still on. We have managed to get us some infantry equipment!"
"And what equipment would zat be, Paddy?" asks Chirac.
"Well, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Murphy's farm tractor."Chirac sighs, amused. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 6,000 tanks and 5,000 armored personnel carriers. Also, I have increased my army to 150,000 since we last spoke."
"Saints preserve us!" exclaims Paddy. "I'll have to get back to you."
Sure enough, Paddy rings again the next day. "Mr. Chirac, the war is still on! We have managed to get ourselves airborne! We have modified Jackie McLaughlin's ultra-light with a couple of shotguns in the cockpit, and four boys from the Shamrock Bar have joined us as well!"
Chirac was silent for a minute and then cleared his throat. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 100 bombers and 200 fighter planes. My military bases are surrounded by laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I have increased my army to 200,000!"
"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!" says Paddy, "I will have to ring you back."
Sure enough, Paddy calls again the next day. "Top o' the mornin', Mr.Chirac! I am sorry to inform you that we have had to call off the war."
"Really? I am sorry to hear that," says Chirac. "Why the sudden change of heart?"
"Well," says Paddy, "we had a long chat over a few pints of Guinness, and decided there is no fookin' way we can feed 200,000 prisoners".
It's a joke!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks For That, I've been feeling kinda wimpy for gettin folks all riled up over what I thought was a good chuckle.

Thanks Russ, I think I will have to take my computer to an expert to get the mic input fixed. I have checked all the settings and it appears to be some kind of failure with the input.
Hello Paul,
Most instruction books now come with a dvd and if you find a rhythym book that looks good they usually have a good strum along section in them and can be very helpful to get your timing and strumming down.
Oh one more thing, A HUGE THANKS TO RUSS! for his help and guidance whenever I have needed it.
Good Morning Russ,
I was messin around after returning from Sturgis and put my mind to getting a recording using Audacity. My mic input will not work so I just used the built in mic in my laptop, I know it's not great but I wanted to go through the process for future reference and I also wanted to see if I could do it.
I didn't use any music or lyrics, just went with what come out. I didn't use any effects, I did the guitar and vocals on the first track and added a second track of some strumming, pickin and also played the riff along with the first guitar and kinda gave it a reverb echo during some of it. If you have 3 minutes to spare here is a link to youtube. I don't have a image hosting sight so I did it this way.
Well glad I didn't go to the concert at the Buffalo Chip campground in Sturgis, my wife wanted to go and I didn't. I guess they had a power failure and he was dancing around entertaining the ground and fell off the stage and had to be taken to the Rapid City hospital.
To get to the concerts it is a real adventure, you have to go through Sturgis then on a 2 lane highway for about 5 miles that is the only way in and the only way out and has traffic backed up all the way from the Buffalo Chip to Sturgis and back up the interstate. The 5 mile stretch is also the way to Full Throttle Saloon, Glencoe Campgound and lots of others, its a very congested area.
Great ! I wish I woulda started at his age, what a pleasure it is to perform with family.
Pix, It may take a while with Pony Express and slow boats but I guess it will make it round the world eventually.
Hey Tops,
Long time no hear from you, I will take credit for the sight but I will not even try to dethrone the King, Tops is a wealth of knowledge and never seizes to amaze me.
I think finding the right person to jam with is the hardest for me. You gotta have the similar musical background and tastes in music. I am pretty sure I would have a great time jammin with you.
I am just heading out to the Sturgis Rally, and I have my guitar packed and ready, the gals in the campgrounds seem to love guitars, even if I can't play worth a darn I can fake it.

Best Sound Track " Easy Rider" 1969 Don't Bogart That Joint My Friend,
Love it Russ! I think I might have to get a bass now. Music is just a great way of entertaining yourself. I sometimes play with backing tracks for hours.
I would love to have one and have been close to getting one. The only thing that has held me back is I am lazy and I have a hard enuff time changing strings on 5 guitars on a regular basis and just the thought of twelve is kinda scary. But I love playing a twelve string and after a few minutes it gets comfortable and sounds so sweet.
I wouldn't use one for everything but, on some songs there is no comparison to a twelver.
Fantastic ! I would love to play with you, I sure do admire young folks for going bluegrass or old time. It is very refreshing.
Nice one Strans, and well said Phil !
I have pretty thin skin and I'm afraid you might hurt my feelings. Really I have to go on a job in the morning and will be staying onsight at the job for 10 days to 2 weeks so I will lay down some tracks when I get back. I think I have it figured out well enough to get a half azzed recording down.
I guy told me one time if I was half azzed at enough things some day I might amount to a whole azz or an azz hole.
Thanks,
The new 1/8 to 1/4 input jack did the trick, now I need to learn to play and sing without so many screwups, recordings always seem to pickup my weak links.
Any way now I will just experiment till I get my sound down.
Hey thanks,'
After further review I have found my problem, my line in mic was not working and the pc's mic was the one recording, that's why the noise. I think the change over plug from the mic to the little input jac is bad and may have messed up my computer input the same way it did my video camera. I am going to get a couple new ones and try again.
Now that I know what was going on I am surprised at how good the sound quality was just coming from the pc mic.
