I'm thinking it might be! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope you get some great toys to play with!

 

Firstly and most importantly... Happy Birthday Doug

 

 

And I was thinking " how does she know that?" So off I went to his soundclick page and then to his website and blog and all I could discover is

 

a) that he is /was 53

=D> he is restoring a 1961 Hofner

and

c) there is NO picture of his SWD on his mainpage.. presumably no room on the sofa?

 

So Karen howjano?

Happy Birthday, Doug

 

Merle Travis .... Sixteen Tons

 

Some people say a man's made out of mud.

but a poor man's made out of muscle and blood.

muscle and blood, skin and bones.

a minds that's weak, and a back thats strong.

 

You load sixteen tons,and what do you get.

a-nother day older, and deeper in debt.

St. peter, don't you call me 'cause i can't go;

I owe my soul to the company store.

I read it here somewhere, but because I'm 51 now, I can't remember where I read it! I checked both my Happy Birthday thread and Paul's Happy Birthday thread, but it's not there. Am I losing my mind? Possibly. I do hope Doug pops in and confirms that it's his birthday, I'm not losing my mind, and he got the guitar of his dreams for his birthday. Time will tell....

Thank you so much! I'm trying to figure out how Karen knew!

 

I'm just on a supper break from putting up a production of "The Buddy Holly Story", so, although I'm working a 14hr day today, I'm really enjoying the music. Got to come home for an hour for something to eat and play "Words of Love" on my favourite guitar... MY SWD!

 

I just haven't updated my home page with a new family photo, otherwise there would be a page and a place for the Songwriter.

 

And the Hofner is complete to this point (gonna refret it in the summer).

 

So yes.. it is my birthday and no, I didn't get a guitar... yet... hehe... TBC
