I use the DR coated, color strings on my Composite Acoustic guitar. This guitar lives on the back porch and the coated strings sound great, look awesome and last a long time even in the Florida heat and humidity. And they are available in multiple color options - great strings!
I use John Pearse strings on all my wood acoustics that live indoors, but the DR coated are great on my back porch guitar.
Thanks everyone - I had a pretty darn good day!
LOL - Thanks Roger!
Thanks for sharing Roger - That was pretty cool
I will definitely "do" Sunday Morning Coming Down, but anyone who wants to hear it is gonna have to come to Madeira Beach! 
I'm gonna throw in my 2 cents here, even though I'm not posting anything because I can't stand to hear myself sing. I would love to hear BGD (and others) attempt a cover of a Dave Matthews tune. "Under the Table and Dreaming" and "Crash" wee both released in the 90s and I've just got a feeling that BGD could do justice to some of those tunes. Myself - not only can't I sing them, but Dave plays some weird chords that require more fingers than I have. Since I am not participating, feel free to ignore my suggestion!
Good to see an old familiar "face". Glad you're back!
Love it! But now I wanna know the origins - I thought it was an old Irish Drinking Song.
Congrats JX3. When are you moving to Florida? By law, New Englanders are required to establish residence within 5 years of retirement. 
In all seriousness, if you need a break, I've got a spare room and a full liquor cabinet - well not quite as full since chordiestock, but the booze store is close!
Welcome to chordie Marshel. I have no experience with carpal tunnel, but I wish you the best of luck!
This is a little late, but I've been busy. My good friend Zurf conspired with Topdawg to obtain this killer Squire short-scale bass and gifted it to me during chordiestock. He was also kind enough to bring me a book so I can learn how to play it!. As a bonus, it matches my Strat perfectly! Thanks Zurf! Now if only I could learn to play one of em.....
Beautiful Guitar -Happy NGD!
I think most folks I know here are on facebook and have seen the photos from the weekend, but is a sample for those who are not (Dirty Ed 
). I am happy to say that CSV was a success - the level and quantity of talent that gathered on Saturday was AMAZING!
Ken, we're sure gonna miss you too, I believe other than Zurf and Southpaw, you have made the most chordiestocks. At least we will have some Dirty Ed tunes to listen to - thanks for that, I am sure we will be playing and singing along with your music! Hope the knee is healing well and we look forward to having you back next year!
CSV starts in 4 days - Banner is up!
That guitar has Beamer The Metalizer written all over it. Happy NGD buddy!
I've got the full size big brother of this CA and love it.
Dylan - at Doubleday field in Cooperstown a few years ago
It was awful. Placed was packed - but many left halfway through. I stayed for entire event b/c I'm a Dylan diehard no matter what. My wife and daughter left to go to local bar for drinks. At the end- I kind of wished I had left with them.
With that being said two years later I saw him in NYC and it was great.
Guess everyone can be lousy some nights.
Sounds like the time I saw him. He was touring minor league ball parks with Willie Nelson. Willie was awesome, sang every popular song, interacted with the audience. It was a joy to see - actually brought tears to my eyes, seeing this American Icon.
Then came Dylan - all electric amped to the max, totally incoherent vocals and not a single song recognizable. I left early. I still am a huge fan, but man was that disappointing.
That's why I didn't see The Who last year when I was in Vegas. After the fiasco in the Super Bowl half time a few years back, I didn't want taint my love for Pete and Roger by witnessing it in person.
Concert i missed `Chordie Stock`
seen a few vids but much more next time please.
Sure hope you can make it some year EB!
This party will be staring 3 weeks from tonight. I ordered some custom collector drinkware for the big event. If there are leftovers, I'd be happy to ship to any previous attendees.
I can't name any specific tours, but there are bands that I have never seen and wished I had the opportunity or made the additional effort to see. Off the top of my head:
- The Who - probably my all time favorite rock band. They just never came close enough for me to see easily. I sure wish I had made an effort when they were in their prime.
- Led Zeppelin - I was only 16 when they ended, but I have friends who saw them and I wish I went.
- Pink Floyd w/ Roger Waters - I've seen the Gilmour led version several times, but always felt that I never saw the true Floyd. Roger is coming to Tampa in July - maybe I'll finally get to see him then (even if it is on a Tuesday night 
)
- Clapton - I'm a huge fan and he certainly used to tour enough, but for whatever reason I've never had or made the opportunity to see him.
That's a pretty short list - I've probably been to 100's of concerts, I guess I should feel lucky that I've seen so many amazing shows.
Ah but the tree pollen is a real killer though.
Just saying
Ark - Palm trees give off very little pollen
Topdown ... your killin' me here, man!
Come on down anytime TF - I've got a spare bed and rum runners on on me. Chordians are always welcome!
Y'all really oughta come on down for chordiestock
just sayin'
That was freaking hilarious. Love bad lip reading
Even though the month isn't even 1/2 way through, I declare BGD and Zurf the winners. I guarantee nobody had or will have as much fun playing these tunes as these two did. Please pick a good SOTM for March - perhaps we can record a chordiestock collaboration!
