Its an instrumental and still in a state of flux. At my rate of work, if its gets as far as a recording, it'll be next year. Thanks for the interest though. Quote How does it make you feel when you play it.. I don't truthfully know. Lucky to be alive I think. Right now I'm thinking of familiar songs in new arrangements for the family quiz. I've just been playing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' in a polka style. It'll be a laugh if nothing else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt. Pepper 915 Report post Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) I'm always trying to perfect Blackbird. I've been working on Goodbye Blue Sky by PF, and I just started on Ripple by the Dead the Grateful kind. Edited November 7, 2020 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired 971 Report post Posted November 9, 2020 I've been way too busy with this season raking up leaves and picking up tree debris from the 4 neighbors trees each day to relax and play. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
merciful-evans 955 Report post Posted November 9, 2020 I wanted to quickly record quiz tune ideas direct to laptop. I remembered when I bought the THR, it offered Cubase for free. So I went for it. It took hours to process/download/install. Then it wouldn't recognise my guitar signal and moreover, I haven't a clue how to use it. I'll probably uninstall it later. I want something EASY! Anyway, the current tune (for quizzing) is the uk national anthem rearranged for a minor key and in 5/4 time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think thats what it was called, a country song. The grandkids loved it as their mom listened to it all the time. Deb told me to learn it and play it for them. So I did, but I thought it was terrible. I thought it was a dumb song and it was the hit of the nation, Lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love playing original songs... being an open mic hero, to play any though that get received well - it's a matter of getting the audience to a point where they appreciate them.... otherwise the songs just become background noise to whatever discussion they're having at the moment.

Its a lot of work to develop originals and teaching them to other band members, but so rewarding when an audience responds to them. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
