Good song. I like it.

Made some lyrical changes for smoother delivery and moved a few things around. I discovered this when actually singing out loud with the music instead of in my head. LOL dont it always work that way. <smh> 
iIam trying to make a singing version. if you want to chuck berry it on teh C and D verses toss the little pinky action in there.
I could definitely use some help on verse 3:
C
Take me out and fill my cup
D
Just ask and we’ll play for free
C
Turn me on and light me up
D
You never met a man like me
I know it could be better and any help would be awesome.

For what its worth I pump the forum to everyone and try to hijack some meber from Guitar Zoom who I think would be great additions to us. It has failed for some reason. One lady put one greeting post and that was it. Signed up SonBeam, he said he wanted to put stuff in here, but he has yet to post. if its not snap chat or Instagram, he wont bother.
most kids dont even use FB anymore.
We lost our favorite Rose (the Irish lady) and i know why Amy no longer is here but that is what it is.

I've said it before, and I got a whole lot of pushback including extremely rude treatment and accusations from people I had thought knew me better.
The site suffered from over-moderation when making an adjustment could have made a difference because there was still new traffic. I am not making this up. I am relaying what people I invited to join us and gave us a try had to say. Further, the treatment to which I referred in the first sentence was so severe three former moderators left the site over it.
Sorry to be blunt, but it's no mystery why prior active members have left. As for failing to attract new members, the entire forum format is off worldwide. Attracting new members will be a distinct challenge at best, and given that the decisions that frustrated prior members to the point that they determined other venues were preferable have been reinforced and are unlikely to change, even in the unlikely event new people choose to visit it's unlikely they'll stay for long.
This is my opinion on the matter. I will not be defending it or addressing any commentary about it given the foul treatment I received the last time I brought it up.
Z and I have talked about this many times. He is hitting on all cylinders and i agree.
I continue to post mainly because it is a free and easy time / date stamp and poor mans C/W, also makes for easy sharing of info.
last time I looked the average age here was, and this is being generous, Well over 35. yet language and topics were censored in the name of "rules and family atmosphere" - the battle is lost among the sea of Apps and public pages with higher traffic and younger adults and more freedom of expression.
I have to blank out many lyrics or change them entirely from how I do them live just to not get booted off a post in Songs or Poetry.

Topic: My new musician friend (1 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
As I am on a continued Struggle to reform my band, I was watching the Local FB Punk and Metal page for candidates to chat up.
Last weekend I ended up spending 3 hours talking to 3 players. I have yet to meet anyone face to face. The one young man, Noah (he is 21) and I really hit it off, and he and SonBeam are close in age and have shared their Instagram and Snapchat.
He is in the process of trying to move here from Montana. We keep in touch on FB chat. He has a very impressive playing ability and he can sing.
I was going through his music and one of his tunes really caught me up. Being slow at work, and having to look busy, I started writing lyrics to it. Then showed him my start.He was juiced and said please go for it. I also had some input from my lady friend with some ideas which provided me with what now has become the most current version of the song.
I posted it in the SONGS section With his link to his soundcloud for the music .
I know not many in here are into metal and heavy stuff, but you have got to take a listen to his ability.
This one does not have a lot of leads, his other stuff does. He also programed the drums and played or programmed the Bass.
I am looking fwd to getting him in the room with SonBeam and myself.
OH and I'm probably going to start playing bass or switching off with him. I even went ahead and bought a new Bugera 1000W 15" bass combo. I have two basses in the house and nothing to play them through.
The price was right and it also has XLR outs to run to the board and be used a monitor

Does anybody on here have a Fender Champion 100 amp? If so, what do you think about this amp? Would you buy it again, etc?
Fender Champs are suposed to be very good amps. very affordable with built in effects. I am not a huge fan of built in effects having owned an amp that had them.
It comes down to What Style do you want to play and what is your budget? Also do you already have one and looking to mod it in some way?
I honestly would recomend saving a couple hundred more and getting a real tube amp that takes effects very well. I will give you links to some really great amps in that range. However it comes down to actually playing the amps. If you are new to the amp world, a 5 to 20 Watt tube amp can push a 2 x 12 cabnet very well or as a combo unit.
The Blues Jr V is roughly 200 more. and a much more TRUE fender. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail … amp-black. you also can later on add a 1x12 extension cab or bypass to a 2x12.
Then we have the VOX AC 10 comparable in price. As the demos show, its a brighter less compressed sounding amp. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail … tube-combo
My chosen favorits. BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK weather you want a combo or a head and cab.
BUGERA https://www.sweetwater.com/store/manufacturer/Bugera
For the tone and quality you get amazing sound and quality. I personally have the V5 combo and a, now discontinued (due to the fact they were loosing money on how good the amp was and didnt want to raise the price), 100W Tri-Rectifier Head and 4 x 12. The V5 can push a 2 x 12 all day and night long. It can even push a 4x12 but sows its limitations. It take pedals extreamly well. Look on YT for all the examples of all these amps. For the $500 price range, you can get a V5 + find a used 2 x 12 or add in some nice pedals to play with. Don't let it fool you , this combo can hold its own in a basement or club.
The head version is the G5. Do you want to get nasty? The 333 or the 6262. You can see for yourself, you have LOTS of options with the offerings. Some are even on sale and backordered but worth the wait. There is also Reverb for lightly used gear.
I hope this has been usefull info for you.
Beamer.

Good one Beamer this song resonates with me as in the last three weeks or so, three people I know have died due to their excessive drinking. That first verse could have been a good opening paragraph when writing about their life's. The last verse could also be in their life story as their families all tried to help them stop drinking themselves to death.
Thank you. i just editied it to reverse the 1st verse into a chorus and vise versa.
