keep writin'em ..im not great by any stretch, but I got some good advice once...play around with the song( voice and play) till your comfortable with it...then play play play till it matures and is polished till it shines o and we'll all be famous after were dead
Also, I learned the "palm muting" technique last night. When you lay your right hand on the saddle. Makes a big difference in the sound and kinda evens out the strings. Still working on it. Thanks for all your tips and tricks!
The "takes a Train" songs has been emailed! Sorry, I thought we had until July! I'm crap at recording but for a live take I think it came off pretty good
My latest toy. It's the latest model in a video audio handheld recorder, mounts on tripod. Got it on a limited promotion deal for a ridiculously low price. It's comes next week, can't wait to give it a try. I hated my last three vids using a Kodak camera.
