I for one do appreciate your vids - you do Neil amazingly well. That said, the forum is a "virtual community" and it would be better if you contributed more than you have in the past. Just my 2 cents of course.
Allow me to explain.
My personal life really limits my computer time online. I have two little ones (a 4 year old boy & 2 year old girl) who take up a lot of my time and believe me I love spending time with those two. Then there is the dilemma of finding enough spare time to actually make music. Not only do I write and record my own songs but these cover songs as well. As you can imagine doing this takes a lot of time and is a lot of hard work.
I like to share my music with others. I do not need accolades. Nice to get them but not why I post here. I post videos here only to help others hear and see how I play a particular song. If some here consider that spam then so be it, they don't have to look. I wish I could participate but I simply do not have the time with everything else I am involved with. So I'll continue to post here as long as people want the videos and find them helpful. Otherwise I will go away. Doesn't make a difference to me.
BTW, I think the hard work I put into making the videos and poasting them on the chord pages is a mighty big contribution here.
