Like "The Giving Tree"?

I love Shel Silverstein, *DESPITE* this story of his.

The 'other' Moon Shadow.

You might need to work a little on your voice for this one though Jim...

I got this yesterday to practice with and carry around:

Attachment 34564


It sounds like hell, but the fingerboard is very similar to my Martin, so I like it. I might paint it. It can't hurt the sound any.

oh, and you should see the parody of Moonshadow that foot3 wrote. Too risque for me to perform, but hysterical.

I'll leave it to foot if he wants to post it.

footfootfoot 10-15-2011 11:49 AM

I'm not sure it's ready for prime time. I was channeling John Valby, I think.

ZenGum 10-15-2011 08:09 PM

How much are those travel guitars?

jimhelm 10-15-2011 11:51 PM

$199 retail at Sam Ash. cheaper than the $299 Baby Martin. comes with a little bag that you can carry it in, and a strap.

i bought the extended warranty too. 2 extra years against defects and 4 set ups per year for $25. I paid $52 to set up my strat. (this means adjusting intonation, changing the strings ( you buy the strings ) and other minor adjustments. I think I am going to have the saddle lowered a 32nd" to improve the action on the higher frets)

I'm pleased with it. It's like having a uke, but i know how to play it!

Please please please please please?

I'm sure it's better than you think. I'd be interested in seeing the lyrics. Although the more suspense that leads up to the reveal, the higher the expectations will be.

footfootfoot 10-20-2011 01:03 PM

It's not the better-ness of it. It's that it is incredibly vulgar, juvenile, and sophomoric. It is not, however violent or scatological, so maybe I will post it.
But I really think it needs to be performed by someone to be fully appreciated.

What would be really awesome would be Lola singing it with her Ukulele.

footfootfoot 10-20-2011 02:05 PM

But I expect a musical dwellar to at least attempt a recording.

Oh, I'm bein' jacked off in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower
spankin and yankin' in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower

And when ever I use my hands, how I’ll plough her with my glans,
Oh when ever I use my hands, Oh.... I’ll come on her tits some more.
And when ever I close my eyes, I still see her spread her thighs,
Yes, when ever I close my eyes, Oh I spread both her legs some more.

Oh I'm getting’ oral in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower
Suckin’ and fuckin’ in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower

And when my come runs down her legs, she will moan, and she will beg,
Yes when my come runs down her legs, Oh she won't want to walk… too sore.
And when ever I use my my mouth, on my knees, heading south,
Yes when ever I use my mouth, Oh, I’ll tongue her right to the floor...

Oh my spunk’s being swallowed in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower
Suckin’ and fuckin’ in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower

I think it’s too big to fit me! She cried that fateful night.
When ya gonna put it in me? And are we gonna fuck all night?

Now I’m getting anal in yer mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower
Suckin’ and fuckin’ mom’s shower, mom’s shower, mom’s shower

glatt 10-20-2011 02:32 PM

Wow, that IS incredibly vulgar, juvenile, and sophomoric.

Clodfobble 10-20-2011 02:50 PM

That is the funniest thing ever! Come on Jim, the audience demands a performance!

ZenGum 10-20-2011 07:23 PM

Ok, I lied. Here's just the fun part:



Power is out...nothing else to do...

jimhelm 10-29-2011 11:31 PM

Thats the new travel guitar. I really enjoy it. Sounds tinny and twangy, bu it's fun to play, nonetheless.

infinite monkey 10-29-2011 11:36 PM

I love the 'twangy' parts. Very good!

jimhelm 10-29-2011 11:37 PM

And one more eyes closed, drunken, candlelit plucker....nothing else matters...

Don't allow yourself to bore. Therein lies your mastery of your material.

The instrument I play requires memorization of its music -- and note perfect. (no place to clip a music sheet to) Takes a while. It helps to memorize a piece in phrases, especially something with repeating structures.

Folk music tends to be designed around a single voice and a single instrument and easy to sing well. It really shouldn't be dismissed as "just popular" or "just whatever," because it's a very wide-ranging kind of music.

My Dad and his oldest buddy Vaughn. Vaughn is Guitar George.He knows ALL the chords.

you have to turn it up a bit. This was recorded in the loft My dad's bluegrass jam happens in each Tuesday night.

I lolled when my dad gave up trying to keep up with him.
