Untill the parents help out by getting them the instruments, I would stop.  Your really just wasting time.  Do one more, and tell them "Now if you really want to play, find a way to get a guitar, then come ask me to help you."  Its not mean, its finding out who really wants to learn. Like many of us here, we went in search of...  My son had to earn his first guitar and save the money for it.  It sat for a year or so after his initial year of lessons.  now he asked for lessons again, and being 2 yrs older, he is doing great and playing with out being told to pratice.

I'm a heavy metal floutist.  LOL!

I like Tull, but I have to say IT IS NOT HEAVY METAL.  I quit paying attention to the grammys up untill this last year (Halestorm won best new metal/ rock band) when they gave Juthro Tull best Heavy metal band over Metallica and their album  ..And justice for all.

( Gotta keep my new name intact :-) )

this should help some

Today is Tesla's birthday. For those of you who don't know who he is you should look him up. He is the greatest inventor ever. In direct competition with Edison during his hay day. Tesla way so far ahead of his time, but as with all geniuses, he had his quirks and was a weirdo really.

Tesla the band (one of my fav's) is actually named after Nikola Tesla. The Tesla electric car is named after him too.


Happy birthday Tesla!!!!!

I was in San Antonio over teh 4th, Saw A damn nice Tesla.  Still a pretty pricy ride for the nice one at 93 G's and 265 on one charge. ( That would only get me 2 round trips to work and there are the hills to consider, is that flat land miles per Kw?) I wonder how your house bill for charging every night would look? and would it actualy top off the charge if you can only get 5 hrs on the cord?

Its a pricy toy. bu they its the best on out there for now. It sure did look nice. Like a high end Lexus.

Z I once drove Jeff Keith to do his laundry and he gave me tickets to the show.  They blew Poison off the stage.

I have watched this  a long time ago. I just cant bring myself to do this to my beautiful finishes.  I know it would be quicker, buttttt if I ever absolutely needed to sell one then how do you get them to not tell you you ruined the finish?

I use evernote. Love it.

That would mean having media package on your phone or I (insert whatever).
My family shares the phone package and its talk and text only.  When the kids are out of the house I will upgrade my phone.

Some of you may already know this one with all your fancy phones and stuff LOLOL, But I sent some of my word docs to my Kendle so I could have some of my songs in it.  It works ok, no auto scroll but a quick swipe of the screen and we are good to go.

Thats when I sneek off to SONIC!

Russel is correct Audacity is the easiest to use, but you can also downlioad Reaper.  Its on the level of protools.  you get the whole prog free no lock out features.  look them up also.  (its just a steeper learning climb)

So you watch CASTLE?  in one episode there is a great scene with him and his daughter doing the same thing.  It is a question right up there with "Does the dryer eat my socks?"
