Thump, how about a little YouTube showing us some of your music skills?
One of your own songs would be nice? You seem very experienced.

Anyone else also for that matter.

October, 4am, asphalt, soft black socks, good running shoes, and headphones not those stupid earbuds but real headphones with my Spotify list (matchbox 20, Pearl Jam, Oasis, Smashing Pumpkins). No one else exists. No thoughts. Nothing. Just breathe..run..feel.

Forgive the crummy sound, taken with my digicam, at an open-mic I did last summer. Song's original -- "Outside Cat Blues", it's called. Y'all have seen me drop a snippet of its lyrics into relationship threads here before.





From the same set, another original, "Silence Says So Much":





For better or worse, what I live for. I've played Poodie's probably ten times since then, looking forward to going electric and getting into a gigging band.

And it's not youtube, but here are a couple of old electric tracks I demo'ed (both original) from my Soundcloud:

Handsome guitar, too right. Nice collection you've got. I've got three: The SG pictured upthread, alongside an Ibanez AS 93, and a mid-80s Yamaha FG-450SE:





The Yamaha is still my favorite for now, but it's out on loan to a buddy who's gigging it while his own box is in the shop for work. I'm loving getting back into electric playing, though ... I've missed it so much.

That moment when you get an idea to write a poem, and you are typing really fast as the words seem to write themselves. You sit there typing and love what you are reading at the same time. It's like it's not even you doing the writing.

I get what you're saying ... but I'll be damned if I ever write a poem that ain't pen, ink, and paper. I'm an old-school buzzard that way. No electricity required, except between the ears, y'know?

That was me up until a few years ago. I have rheumatoid pain in my fingers and writing by hand doesn't help. Of course, typing doesn't either. Heh.

This is mine, well I got it from google images but this is the model, make, colour of my guitar and looks exactly like it.

I did this guitar solo with it, which is another pleasure of mine.  It starts at 2:13 into the song.

That's really good stuff, Paul. Really good, bit of an Iron Maiden feel to it. Do you work with other people, or is this entirely solo/programming?
