Well, I listened to our very own fillhixx do his take(s) on them... and despite what you think of our comic and literarily ornery Canadian, the man gots skills... and a neck tie! - who knew? I enjoyed listening to his very interesting arrangement, good guitar playing and great voice. Hearing the tune in a completely different (and far better) arrangement than I'd ever managed, was a hoot. Great job, Fill. Hope others get to hear it. | ||

But I'll drink beer with anyone.....ask Mark in Boise (who left before he was force-fed beer with real Canadian alcohol) PS: Jeff, you must now play your melody back to me. PSS: Live Rules! NO Recordings. | ||

Thank you Jeff for your kind words, I do however think there is something wrong with your speakers. Mark; if you came to the Vancouver Island Music Fest in July you could drink REAL beer all weekend! And; with you dollar at par there are no complicated calculations. | ||

I will play it live via Skype for anyone, as that is the only bit of technology other than the keyboard that I currently understand on my computer. Tried once again to record anything on the cubase program last night and quit when the urge to throw the computer through the wall welled up again. That's progess! | ||

For those of you interested in hearing the song, the subject of this thread, you'll need to contact Fillhixx. I have no recorded version of it, as I saw it live via internet.... If you want the lyrics, those I can email, if you contact me... | ||
