Re: CHORDIESTOCK 2013 - February 23 - Madeira Beach, FL

I was very pleased to host this event. Surrounded by so much talent, a little bit has got to seep into me. I've had the pleasure of meeting many chordians through the years and just added a few new ones to the list. Every single one of them have been a blast to be around and I consider them all dear friends.

Had more fun this weekend than I have had in a long time. I'm lucky to visit and jam with the boys at the London Bus Pub regularly, but I'm pretty sure the Bus hadn't seen this much talent on one evening before! Both Saturday and Sunday were AWESOME good times!

So - I'm thinking this should be an annual event - who doesn't want to come to sunny Florida in February!

So circle the weekend of February, 2014 on your calendars and lets make Chordiestock 2014 even bigger and better!

Rule No. 1 - If it sounds good - it is good!

WAYNE!  Thank Lizzie for doing the recordings!  Amazing.  Again, Jealousy is my name.  I so wish I'd have been there, it looks like you guys had an AMAZING time!  smile  Fantastic!

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Re: CHORDIESTOCK 2013 - February 23 - Madeira Beach, FL

Thank you Dino48.

I have a wee grand daughter 18 months old now. A pure pleasure and such a joy in my life. I decided to take time out,
to  mind her, which i do full time most of a week. Evenings i usually spend with family on face Book. Its about all the energy i have left at the end of a day.. I am not complaining though, i love the bones of this wee doll.

I am sure at some stage i will get back here. Its all about time and how to share it at the moment.. Not to mention " Age" hahahaha.

I went to see this guy last night live here in Dublin Ireland. . He is older like us all but, was still  soooooo wonderful... I love the man.

  Warm hugs to you Dino48.

Old Doll.

Re: CHORDIESTOCK 2013 - February 23 - Madeira Beach, FL

Yes, Dino48,

Children have a tendency to keep us on our toes. My wee one Loves  curved twigs and Mamo's { Granny in Irish } fashion beads.
She is either gonna be a water diviner or a fashion icon big_smile.
I haven't heard of UYK in a long while. I guess his kids keep him occupied also.. We did have some great banter here for so long on Chordie.. It surely kept me going through some very rough times. I would be in touch with some of the guys and gals on  { dare i mention F B ! They { Chordie have a link there also.}.

Be kind to you and yours sir. Life passes in the blink of an eye.. I just linked this on Face craic  [ as we call it }. So i shall share with you also.
I love this lady Mary Gaulthier " Sings and writes the best songs. She is also magic in live concerts. I have had the pleasure..
Oiche Mhaith ! { goodnight }

Re: CHORDIESTOCK 2013 - February 23 - Madeira Beach, FL

Well it surprised me when you showed up on YouTube Old Doll.  It is a real pleasure to see you are enjoying grandchildren and such.  And the next dance is on me girl.  I am glad you got in touch with me, if even for a moment.  Be sure to say hi on ocassion and I will do the same. The pleasure is all mine you know.

You can see all my video covers on [url]http://www.youtube.com/bensonp1000[/url]
I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
