Hi Guys 😺😺😺😺 I’ve had relatives living in my house for six weeks!! But they’re GONE. So I’m back in some color. You have my most sincere condolences, dear. Providing hospitality to relatives for a couple of days (or even a couple of weeks) can be a joy. But I reckon by the end of six weeks it had become quite a chore.

Hi frets 🎶 Whatever happened to your guitar you were putting cell phone batteries in? Did you play it for your relatives during week 3? 🙂

Thanks guys,
Gumbo, their favorite pedal was actually a pedal board that had “get me a drink”, “make me a snack”, “find me the remote”, “wash my clothes” pedals. Trag, I no longer smoke but the cravings were so severe I called the “Smoker’s Helpline” but they don’t do home deliveries. Retread, the chores never ended! Unreg, the cell phone battery guitar got sat on by my nephew.
Thanks for all your support, I think I’ll be out of the hospital in a few days!😸

Wow, was that guitar destroyed 😭 by your nephew? frets, do you own too many guitars? Or maybe just enough so that some lay around as furniture since all the racks are full?

i know this may not find much interest in a guitar group but i shall share this earworm with you These might generate a little interest for guitar players ... And, though it is probably my least favourite Moonstone Project track (due to Bonnet's vocals), there's also: "Not Dead Yet", from the album "Time To Take A Stand" (and the expanded rerelease "Hidden In Time")

I was going to post a song from one of my fave '90s bands, Veruca Salt's "Not Officially Dead", but unfortunately couldn't find an online version of it. And I thought YouTube had everything . . .

YouTube often fails. I've never found "Flanker" by Herbie Flowers, and even more disappointingly the sublime "Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes" by Kevin Ayers. I've frequently considered "ripping" my vinyl 7"-ers but since there's probably an intellectual property rights elephant in the room it's never happened yet. I may do it for my own convenience though ...

From memory, I've never played the "A" side! No idea what it's title is either.
Sigh. The genius responsible for THAT bass on "Walk on the Wild Side" ...

I just looked for that Ayers track - here you go: I am not sure what you are doing wrong (or I'm doing right), but there appears to be several uploads). This track is certainly better than the Flowers one!

Probably because you did not have the title quite right: "Officially Dead" col- Your YouTube-fu is impressive indeed. newey, when a YouTube search fails, duckduckgo.com search engine usually solves the problem. When I typed “veruca salt not officially dead”, a search correction appeared that says “veruca salt officially dead”. (That correction shoes up instantly when “veruca salt not of” is typed.) And even searching for “veruca salt not officially dead” returns a summary below the first link that references Veruca Salt’s “Officially Dead”. So that’s an excellent way to quickly find correct spellings of artists and songs. Sadly, YouTube’s search lacks any corrections so DuckDuckGo is a great helping tool. Note: duck.com is a shorter form of duckduckgo.com
