Well, I entered this one last month, but this was a performance I did last Friday, with the complete3d third verse and some of the rough edges tidied up:

Re: AUGUST 2024 – ANYTHING GOES!

neophytte, good to see you performing your song live and glad you added the final verse.  I did however struggle to hear the lyrics of the final verse and even used the transcript which wasn't much help for the last verse lol.  If you get the chance, write the words of the last verse down on here so I can have another listen.  I liked the subtle changes you made in the song, the clicking of fingers, the end outro was good on guitar, slightly different to the original outro, which all added to it.  The only other comment was it was harder to hear overall, no doubt being live makes it harder with the recording side of things, whereas the first version you did for us last month, it was quite easy to hear the lyrics.  Anyway, a fun song, I like it, well done.

I don't know what else to tell you, it was a story from long ago, we all survived, except the spider and a chain saw that was thrown. The chainsaw kinda stopped, I was glad for that feature, the spider was dead, she no longer moved, but her children came out alive ...

Thanks for listening in!! The recording was just on my phone, and my son took a few happy snaps as well.

Cheers

neophytte, that was very enjoyable listening and watching you both play.  The smiles said it all at the end, a good foot tapping effort by you both smile     I have my Fathers auto harp, but I haven't learnt where all the chord buttons are yet, so have to keep stopping to look down at them which kind of ruins it lol but I guess it`s just another practice, practice, practice thing if you want to get any good at it.

easybeat, I enjoyed listening to that, also a good foot tapping song, a great beat and good message.  I miss getting those lovely old handwritten letters, which took time to write, time to post and were lovely to hold, read through and keep if you so desired.  Ahhhh the good old days.

Come on, any more entries for this month?  I can`t join in this month as I have put my back out in the last few days, so no strumming for me presently.
