Was thinking the same thing Bob ... Hell Freezes Over, "Hotel California"

How about Richard Wacker?  This was a guy I went to school with!

I'd have to say Dos Equis

Ahhh ok now I'm understanding ... I was thinking you had to "push" the string side-to-side to get that effect ... that makes a heck of a lot more sense

Hello Bighenbroon and welcome to Chorie ... In regards to slower songs, I've always been partial to country songs (if you like that genre) ... especially George Strait songs ... a lot of them are slow strumming chords ... "Stars on the Water" and "Adalida" come to mind ... as far as barre chording, it takes A LOT of practice ... I couldn't learn on an acoustic since it sounded terrible but I practiced on my electric and I was able to get the form down somewhat and after a while, it made it easier on the acoustic (although it still doesn't sound great on acoustic yet)

Awesome song

I can't get past Sam Adams though I've tried many times to like it I just can't ... Schaefer was my Dad's "cheap weekend 24-pack" beer of choice most times ... now the UK had some great beer ... I loved Newcastle and Carlsberg (Dutch) and Guiness was good too ... though I still couldn't take drinking beer at "room temperature"

I remember all those beers mainly from my Dad (being a Navy brat) ... Yuengling I remember the bottles came in that huge box that my Dad would recycle and I actually had an Air Force buddie who's last name was Yuengling (was his great great grandfather) ... Genesee I remember from our neighbor who's house was basically a hunters lodge and he'd drink nothing but Genesee and dump the cans in back of the house which we dubbed "Jenny Mountain" ... PBR and Piels my Dad used to drink in Virginia when he was stationed in Virginia Beach

I do like Lonestar though ... but Dos Equis is a great beer that you have to have with lemon juice added ... primo
