Welcome to Chordie TJ!  Thing is, most songs with a whole band backing them have a lot more going on than just a guitar and a singer... so a lot is left up to interpretation as far as patterns go to try to fill some of that in.  I agree with the above, check youtube because if it's a good song chances are someone else has already tried to play it acoustic.  I find a lot of times a simple dd uu du pattern works for many songs... sadly, a lot of what I play isn't distinguishable until I start singing. 

Awesome Deadstring!  It sounds like you wandered into something wonderful there.  A smile ear to ear for at least a week over that one!    Great!

That sounds like a pretty happy and filled life to me Toney!  Kiss em, and enjoy each moment that you're blessed with... it's not always easy, but those sticky kisses are quite a reward!  And keep on playing of course. 

My husband mentioned wanting to do this for me... with a Martin Kit.  I think he's crazy, and I'm scared to death cuz what if it sounds aweful and I don't love it?  ha ha!  I think it's sweet he wants to.  Something like this is scary to me though especially if Pix hasn't even done it yet!  LOL!

happy NGD!  yes, the "rules" are... if you get a new guitar and are capable, pictures please!

I don't think I've actually seen a Guild in any of the local stores around here.  I'll have to continue to keep my eyes open and maybe one will pop up one of these days. 

They hired a

Pix, do you know if Yahoo Groups does this yet?  I've always thought it's a functionality that should be included in their free services (although I'm sure bandwith would cause an issue at the price of free)

The therapy of music has certainly helped me though some rough spots.  As for the guitar... my family much prefers hearing me play it than belting out an Italian Aria so I think the guitar has saved them. 

How AWESOME that you two finally got together to hang out.  I was hoping to hear that you would when I heard you were heading to Florida Jeff.  I totally get Roger's jealousy... and am counting down the days till the July Jam Zurf set up! 

A world wide Chrodie online jam session huh?  I've never actually tried Skype myself, I do know that I've had a few webcam windows in Yahoo open at once.  I'm sure there's a way to put a bunch of them in one place.  hmmm... I'll have to think about that one a bit more.  Pix probably does have a little more webcam use than I do though.  Most of the people  I chat with are friends close by so I haven't even used my webcam in a while.  It's an idea though!

MeganJane when viewing someone's songbook you see the list of all the songs, at the bottom of the screen you can choose to import songbook.  That will add the entire thing into your own "my songbook".  If you open up the individual song and on the right click on "add songbook" you can add just that song into your "my songbook".  I suppose it's a bit confusing, but it does imply "add TO songbook".  Go ahead and give it a try and let us know if it works right for you.  BTW, if you have 100 songs in your songbook then you won't be able to add any more.  You'll then have to make up a new songbook to add to.

Zurf, do you happen to know what fishing regulations are for out of towners?  I'm sure you will point me to a website here shortly   I know in NY a fishing license must be had by anyone over the age of 16.
