I've heard that phrase before and now it makes sense!
I was trying to be sly and get a song from my friends originals to learn by asking what would be a cool song to learn. His first e-mail was suggesting Classical Gas and the theme to Popeye the sailor. That was out of the blue! Then he came back with a song of his. He's a very good guitarist and posted a lot of songs in an online forum. It's not an easy song. Beyond what I have ever played in the first section. I'll take up the challenge and do my best, with my instructor on bass to help fill out the double tracked parts or something. The twist is he kind of challenged me to learn it to play at his service. My friend has terminal cancer. I don't know how long he will be with us. It could be months. I don't know. So, the gig date is " hopefully not too soon. "
