Good to finally hear from you Brother. I hope you don't continue to read along and not join in. Do you have any new songs posted the Old Dog can pick over and give you a soft critique??? Ha!!! Truly, I really like your songs and the background instruments you add to them.
Ha, ha -- I am calling you out. Actually, I added a percussion and bass to a song and I am not a bass player (or percussionist) at all! Besides not being any good or practicing, I just don't think like a bass player. Check out Slightly Out of Phase II and give me some pointers on bass construction (bass doesn't start until the first chorus). My earlier attempts were more inventive and interesting, but there were just too many bum notes. I had to simplify, simplify, simplify.
As a shout out to all the texas hats, I have a line about a rodeo in there!!!
... and don't mention BIAB -- I play all the instrumentation on this one (ha, ha). yea, yea, yea, the lyrics are about nothing. I know, i know, i know!
