Cowboy chords and a great voice( ;) ), can only take you so far. 3) Be an flagrant Ovation snob less often. Not a big problem but a couple times a year I'll cross that line. I really do like some wood box guitars.....really. 4) Play my uke more. | ||

Joined: December 2003 Posts: 13984 Location: Upper Left USA | Confession can be a good start. I have been scanning Ebay for Koa Ukuleles and Ukeleles. Dave, Can you please find me a Baritone Uke in Koa at an entry level price but adequate quality? A broken one in need of repair would be swell! 1) Sell for more than I paid. 2) Play and learn more electric. 3) Learn to play without the cheat sheet in front of me. 3) Be a better OFC Member and keep in mind the Slipkid Manifesto! | ||

Joined: November 2004 Posts: 4413 | I was not a well man at the time. I had been taking vast amounts of Class A drugs for the previous 4 or 5 months and I'd just been staying with jeffW for a week. Are those enough excuses? And Moody had just given me a bear hug. All my ribs were broken and a uke was the only thing I could still lift. | ||

After all... you even have a smile on your face. Woody ... I'm with you pal... less dependence on cheat sheets. | ||

Joined: March 2005 Posts: 12750 Location: Boise, Idaho | 1. Spend less time on the OFC board. 2. Dam, I screwed up the first one already. I actually do resolve to learn some new songs. I'll renew last year's resolution to learn some guitar theory. I'll renew last year's resolution to learn to play electric. (At least I only have one, where Woody handles so many of them that he should be a virtuoso by osmosis.) Lose some weight so I don't need a contour bowl. | ||

Joined: December 2004 Posts: 370 Location: Isle of Man, UK | I'll be 30 in July next year, so it's a big year I guess... I 2007 I will:- 1) stop biting my nails (again... 4 months is my record) 2) make some sort of clumsy effort to ask that gorgeous girl out who was at our gig on 23rd December next time I see her. (Be honest - if I ask over a microphone at the next packed gig, how likely is she to say no?!?) Not sure which will happen first. My guess is that it will be birthday, nails, and then I'll have the confidence to make a muppet out of myself with the lady... JB PS:- Schroder. Nice pic, sir. You could almost believe it was photoshopped... ;) | ||
