James,
You've written and submitted many fine songs here on chordie but this one, I feel, may possibly be your best one to date. The cadence and flow of your lyrics are masterful and your chord progressions fit like a familiar pair of old blue jeans. Very well done, thanks for sharing.
Mucho Respecto,

Its probly some kind of old timey superstition... like a coon pecker bone beoing good luck
Huh-what!!!!!
Did you mean to write that?
I bought a guitar from an older gentleman a few months back and upon getting it home I discovered a 10 year old rattlesnake rattler inside the guitar. I mentioned this to a few of my friends and they said that allot of old timers do this. So my question is why? Does anyone have any ideas? I don't think it really adds anything to the sound (unless you shake the guitar..lol)but I could be wrong my ears aren't exactly the best trained...Thanks!
I be taping up the hole and calling the animal police real fast!!!!
Hey good one....
You paint a picture with words arkady. I mean, not in a perverted way, just in general the way you write all the time.... ok im gonna stop before i dig this hole any further lol
Nice song though
I believe you have the wrong person here last rebel. Old Doll, not arkady wrote this song. And a fine song it is Old Doll. Very well written, I would really like to hear you play this song. Are you gonna make it available for 'eager ears' to hear anytime soon?
Oh by the way south paw, I think that movie's called Office Space???? Ive seen it twice on TV, but I always come in a few minutes after it starts (dang this cable TV)...
That guy reminds me of a guy who goes to our church, kind of a nerdy but very likable fellow. He told me one time, 'I don't see why the airports are stressing out so much over nail files and cell phones, I could bring a water bottle full of clear liquid that wouldn't set off any sensors and blow up the whole airport..."
I try to stay on his good side lol
Ding,ding, ding, ding, ding!!!!! You win last rebel! That's it, You are indeed correct. Yeah if'n I was you I reckon I'd be stayin' on that guy's good side too.
Mmm, mm, mmm,mm,my stlaypler, has anyone seen my stlaypler? Stlaypler, mm, mm,mm, mmmyyy, my stlaypler..................
" And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire... "
Anyoneknow from which movie this quote was taken?
I love these guys! I think they're brilliantly innovative, extremely talented, and funnier than a one legged cat on a frozen pond.
Do you agree when people tell, that the whole peace and love (or hippies) ended with the ROLLING STONES in Altamont
?
I don't think the peace, love, and hippie thing ended with the Stones in Altamont. Many friends of mine and people with whom I associate are still livin' the hippie lifestyle, minus the irresponsible, excessive drug use and having multiple sexual partners. We're a modern day," new age" hippie if you will. Less emphasis is put upon making an anti-social statement with ones style of dress and grooming habits and more emphasis is put on social awareness and environmental causes.
What's your all-time best pick-up line?
This one used to work for me once in a while back in the day.
"I heard you're lookin' for me, here I am!"
Old Doll,
Was the first line supposed to read,"The papers said just what was real."?
I really like this tune. It runs the gamut of emotions. Realization, sadness, acceptance, are brought forth, to me at least. You, my friend, are genuinely gifted as a songwriter. Splendidly exquisite! Thanks for sharing.
Don't know the real answer to this question but I may venture to quess that the parents of these "No Future" kids cut off the money support to their rebel causes subsequently causing hunger and other symptoms associated with not having any money or a place to live. The kids I'm guessing "woke up" and realized that being angry at the world and all that's associated with attitudes of pesimistic nature was counterproductive and left the rebel rousing to those who were financially secure enough to live that way. Just a guess..........
gitaardocphil,
Looks as if Mr. Lee has quite a lot going on. Touring, new CD, seminars, promotional appearances. He played locally a few months back close to my home in Florida. I had a gig so I couldn't make it to his clinic but I have some friends/musicians who went and they raved about his playing! Here's his official website;

Thank you Old Doll. What a wonderful thing to say. You, my Chordie treasure, have a heart of pure, shining gold. What a great start to this day!
Leiven,
You and i have something in common. We both were involved in very serious accidents. Yours a car, mine a boat. May 30, 1987, Claytor Lake, Virginia, I was riding in the back of a fast, powerful water ski boat. The steering cable suddenly broke loose and threw me out of the boat and into the direct path of the spinning propellor. It hit my left hand and arm. It was horrific. I was studing classical guitar, 20 years old and knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life. I had 13 reconstructive surgeries at the University of Virginia Trauma Center and they were able to save all of my arm and hand minus my left thumb and inner palm. 7 long months went by while my graphs took and the inner parts of my arm mended and then finally I was able to pick up my lifes love(guitar) once again. It was very different though.....
I had to switch my playing from right handed to left handed. The doctors told me I should find a new instrument to play. I told them they were freakin' insane. Years and tears have passed and experiment after experiment I endeavoured into. I had to invent a pick formation that would stay on my badly injured and minimal functioning left hand. I glued a thumb pick, a finger pick, and a flat pick together and slide it over the pointer and middle fingers of my left hand. I do not have the ability to grip with my left hand so this pick system works nicely.
I am unable to play the complex finger picking classical songs I played in my teens and early 20's but my overall musicianship has grown far beyond what the doctors and peers had thought possible. I play guitar for a living, it's all I know, except being a father. The doctors have concluded this; The exercise I gave my arm and hand from playing guitar, drums, and piano, saved my arm and rapidly increased the healing process. My arm will never be "normal" but I have it at least. What is the old saying? "When life hands you lemons, call someone to come over with a bottle of tequilla."hahaha
As you well know, all persons' ability to heal and withstand pain are different. So for me personally I play a minimum of 4 hours every single day, more often than not a lot more than 4 hours. Sure I have arthritis and physical pain but I can tolerate it and deal with it. It's a small price to pay for the pure happiness and elation it brings to my family and our lives. YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE!!!! So live, play guitar, be happy, then rest the final rest with a soul full of music!!
Great topic Leiven, your hard work and research in this field is greatly appreciated.

Hi Jeff,
Great tune mayn'! It takes me home when I read it. I like the fact that you don't use a typical 3 verse, 2 chorus, 1 bridge structure in your songs. Variation is always a positive in my opinion and you definitely have great variation from song to song. I enjoy your music, thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much.SouthPaw41L, I still don't know where your nickname means.
.
Hello Leiven,
South means left, paw means hand, thus comes left-hand, which is the way I play guitar. The 41L is my number from my motocross racing days many years ago.
I Hope I've "Left" No Confusion,
SouthPaw41L
I became member, of course with my gitaardocphil nick.
I found already the "chordian section" and this is what it should be, a place to show and perform as I saw (Friends of chordie). It is still difficult (better: impossible) to record, correct, add effects, with my Boss BR 600, caused by being too lazy: 90%. I hate manuals (this one 220 pages thick), I am very impatient.
gitaardocphil,
If you go to this link you will be able to access the operators manual for your Boss BR 600. I thought you may like to have it on your computer as well as the actual paper manual. It may be easier to find certain items digitally verses the book that came with your Boss BR 600.
How long can you hold your breath?
I held mine for 62 seconds, feelin' woozy now?!&%^&??????
Been playing electric for about 6 months and want to try some effects. Anybody got any hints? ie what is the most popular and is there one that is considered a "must have"?
Thanks

Her's a site I use very frequently. Excellent sevice, prompt deliveries, best prices on the i-net. Here are 1,725 options, some amps, but a ton of guitar effects. I like to read the reviews that buyers have submitted regarding product purchases. Happy shopping....... SouthPaw41L

Hi Rastaman,
And what the heck does 'Woot' mean?
Woot is slang for 'respect to' . Also sometimes used as a 'shout out'.(saying hello to someone)
JohnnieBG,
I Love the work you did on the Sopranos.(HBO Series) Tony Soprano's Uncle right?
Much Respect,

Old Doll,
I never knew the Boudleaux posse were responsible for so many huge hits. This wired box of facts(computer) is a pretty cool little toy. Here's a little sum-sumthin' to shine a little light on the 4 CORNER thingy;
