Inagodadavida for sure. Just joshin ya Ken, but seriously, I don't know if you remember this one, but I played one in Arlington called "On My Own" by B. W. Stevenson. I kind of blew it in Arlington, but it's my favorite song to play, and the most fun.

I don't think you blew that at all West. I got to hear it in Mark's Room and outside on Friday night, you do a fabulous job of that.

For me, Take it to the Limit, Eagles.

I'm ready for Arlington '08. :mrgreen:

It'd been a long time since I'd played in public, and then last year I did a song with a band for my company picnic. It was Sheryl Crow's "If it makes you happy." I sung the chorus down an octave, but otherwise it was a great choice.

Yep Grammy, I'm looking forward to '08 myself, sounds like you're getting in some serious work in preparation. Mark's "Don't Think Twice" is one of my favorites that he does.

Dreadnut, any chance you could post a clip of you doing "Angel From Montgomery"?

If I had just one song - the answer is easy . . .

I've got a real good arrangement of "Maybe I'm Amazed", by Sir Paul. One of the greatest songs to come out of 1970, re-released on the "Wings Over America" tour in 1977, and then recently on his 2002 tour. Third time's the charm, they say . . .

A great song, one that gets a good response every time I play it. Rather easy to play, once you get in the right key of "D".

Boy, there's some great old songs! Metal, I'm gonna have to try "Maybe I'm Amazed", never thought of doing it but I love that song and I bet it sounds great acoustic!

Another on I've been working on is "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow", which was actually written by Carole King. Sounds good acoustic and slowed down a bit.

It would depend on who was there, the "mood," and what guitar I had on hand... but "Field Behind the Plow" by Stan Rogers is one of my favorites to play and sing. Or "Caledonia" by Dougie Maclean...

We'd love to hear you do that one, Barbara :D I think I can speak for all of us...

Any chance of posting a video? Or an audio recording?
