Okay, so I've been in a rut and haven't touched my guitar for over a month, and was really debating on weather I need to keep them....I did, well I kept my acoustic and classical, the electric I sold. But I dug this out the other day and was messing around with it, so I thought I'd do a video since it's been a while. Definately out of practice, but I was thinking a video might kick start me into getting my butt in gear and playing and booking more shows etc.

Anyway, hope you enjoy it!

Very bad, Joe! It sounds very awful! You must keep practicing! :lol:

Seriously. Are you sure you don't play in the last month? Your fingers sound as usual: very well!

But try to play every day, perhaps 10 minutes, it is so relaxing!

And the guitars thank to you. And me, too!

I KNOW right? LOL

Thanks, just had a couple timing/buzz issues, but I guess it wasn't all that bad.

Thank YOU Joe. What a treat for us. I think it`s the ultimate feelgood song. Also a waltz. Luvved it for 30 years already.

Your cover is noble and worthy. I really enjoyed it from a new perspective. Beautiful. :D

Thanks alot! Of course now all the gear has changed, so you'll be seeing some new gear in the videos, those guitars are no longer in my possession LOL.
