Quote:Quote:It's my baby girl. So you must be a proud dad!She's really cute! I hope you send her to school of music! She want's to be a drummer. She's not having a drum kit in my house!It can go in her mothers house. Lol.She can sing in tune but has no power yet. I'm working out how to teach her in a subtle way.If this thread is still going in several years, I might get her to post some of her own lyrics.

Quote:If this thread is still going in several years, I might get her to post some of her own lyrics.What are you waiting for? I wrote my first song when I was 8 years old!!!!! It didn't rhyme much but when I was 9 I wrote:Night time Daddy-Long-LegsTuck your son in bedOne leg smooth the blanketOne leg pat the headOne leg shut the windowOne turn up the heatOne leg turn the light offIt's time to go to sleepEight legs walking down the hallSsssh! To bed, one and all. Some forum members know this: I wrote a song when I was 13 that I still earn royalties from. Not that you have to pressure her, but don't put a number on what she can do at what age (except dating- then get out the shotgun)...Nomi

Quote:Quote:nice, reminds me of MerleThanks, Steve. Merle is one of my big influences. I love the alt-country stuff. It's sad to see that Merle, J. Cash, etc....all of those greats just don't get played in Nashville that much anymore, although Johnny Cash had a video out recently. So now, what was mainstream is too gritty. Even though Cash died years ago, they took some old footage and used it for the new video....I believe it's called, "Sooner Or Later God Will Cut You Down." Lots of stars did cameos in the video like Johnny Depp. Maybe you've seen it.Hey chits!Ray Price, Haggard and Willie were jes here on the coast. Lovely. Ray's still got an amazing voice. Willie's still talk-singin'.
