SO I did some experimenting and learned that if you use this shape:

l-x
l-x
l-x
l-3-
l-3-
l-1-
      and slide it to different positions on the fret board, you can make any chord you want and it gives it a nice 'heavy' sound..... perhaps I have discovered a power chord? I don't know much about this kind of thing and I call everything by the wrong names...
ANYWAY, for this song you use this 'power chord' thingy instead of the full chords.

Hey Tibernus, If you have a cam chances are it has a mic built in. All the ones I've seen do but things could be diffrent in other parts of the world... Sometimes it's not the best quality audio but it works. All I use is a Logitech Quickcam 2 ($40). Nothing fancy but it works... I plan to get a recorder in the next couple of weeks though and that will allow me to run my good mics straight into the pc. Peace!

hey daddycool, I am by no means the authority here, but I thought I would try to answer your question. I believe you would have to post your song at another web site and then request chordie link to that site / song. Other admins - please chime in if I am incorrect.

From the FAQ:

I am an artist, and would like to have my songs listed on Chordie. How?
Make it available online in chopro-format. Here is an example of a song in this format. You will most likely be able to write this in a text editor like Notepad, but there are some graphical tools available as well. When you've done that, send me the address, and I will include it in Chordie.

The tuner winder thing for removing pegs works pretty good for me.  I found my football bat not to be as useful.  First, I had a terrible time getting the darn thing down off the ceiling to train it and then it wanted to do the whole thing without using his hands.  Last time I import a football bat from Great Britain.  Besides, it kept wanting biscuits, but every time I gave him some he screamed about hating sourdough and wondering where the sugar biscuits went.

Dunlop makes a puller, bottle cap opener that works great for both tasks.  You don't have to use leverage like you do with the ones at the end of string winders so you don't mess up your bridge.  Think I got mine from Musicians Friend for about $5.00.  It's just a notch that grabs the pin and you pull straight out.

Nice, watsonchad.

Anyone have advice on pegs? I seem to be unable to get them out without scuffing up the bridge, and I find it difficult to get them in tight enough (I am always afraid I will push my hand right through the top, and end up with the pre-mature Willie Nelson look.

I have a peg winder with that little divot which is supposed to be a "peg puller" but I find it to be as useful as a football bat.

A major 9 is a major 7.    What you want to learn next is chord progressions, and how to build them.

Wow ok ... it's weird because I bar the 1, 2, 3 strings and it sounds like crap ... unless I'm just used to the standard 5/6 string powerchord
