Topic: St. Somewhere

Hi Guys, do you believe in fate?  Well I was lurking in the shadows as one does, reading various threads and Zurf mentioned a little place called St. Somewhere... I'd love to go, what do you think?

Re: St. Somewhere

cool 

Just right!  I'm printing that one out RIGHT NOW! 

But did you have to go and put an evil B chord in it?  You know I'm going to play that as a Bm or a B7.

Granted B chord amnesty by King of the Mutants (Long live the king).

Re: St. Somewhere

Zurf, I was reading the song and lookin' at the chords and I got to thinking he goes to "B" 3 different times. I wus kinda thinking 'bout what / how to make a post to express my feelings on the "B" chord and u done beat me to it. And wid all them "SUS" chords how can u use a capo?The GOOD LORD must'a had a resaon in mind for the "B" chord but I ain't figured it out, yet.

Re: St. Somewhere

Hey Bonedaddy. I gotta say I was pleasantly surprised when I saw your song up.It has a real nice laid back feel to it.Good Job Sir.Glad to see Zurf liked it also.
July 1st being Canada I was at a good friends house party.They had drums,a keyboard,electric guitars and the dreaded MICRO-PHONE all set up for a Jam in the backyard.I've always been made to feel very welcome there but when it comes to playing or singing(Dam Micro-phone) I never really joined in unless I had my full share of Labatts.After watching everyone playing and watching the kids get up to sing (ages 4-15) I decided I would give a go and jumped aboard.I had a blast.
The kids wanted us to play some tunes we didn't know so I promptly introduced Chordie to everyone and also showed them the forum. St.Somewhere was the first tune they all saw and were very impressed with it.Also VERY impressed with Chordie.I see in chat KEYBORED has joined already. We played until it got dark and carried on till 2am which made it a long 1/2 hr drive home and an even longer day today sad
So thanks to you and everyone at Chordie for sparking up my fire.It's good to be back smile and now I'm going back to bed

Re: St. Somewhere

Hi Bonedaddy,

Great to get inspiration for a song from a discussion in the Chat section. I love the Dsus2, Dsus4, D progression, well done.

Kenny, I was in Canada a few years ago and I discovered Moosehead, the best beer I have ever tasted, my taste buds are getting excitied just writing about it. Nice to hear you are conquering the fear of the mic. Perhaps we will soon hear your recordings of your songs.

Re: St. Somewhere

Thanks guys, glad to be of service keeping the kids entertained!

Yeah, laid back is how it felt to me!  Everything is upside down for me at the moment but when everything gets back to right side up I'll try recording on youtube again!

BTW, what is the problem with the humble B?  (I know there is one with the bumble B but that's a different thread!)  I struggle with B7 and Bm more!  Each to his own, I guess - See you all on the beach!!!

cool

Re: St. Somewhere

Hey Daddy - Off to the islands with you. I can just picture playing on a beach somewhere with a rum punch in your hand. Great song
