Just for fun!

Post by billg » Wed Oct 08, 2008 9:25 am

I don't know about you guys but whenever I'm blocked up it seems to help if I just sit down and do something for fun, just a goof off. So that's how this was born. I don't know if it's a surf song or a spy song so I call it Surfin' With Spies. I did learn how to make a harmonica sound like a banchee from hell . . . I'm sure that's useful.http://www.billgaunce.com/song/85

Yes, Bill that is a fun tune! And you're right it's probably very theraputic, or at least cathartic to do something like that.Brings to mind two of my favorite quotes:"Nothin' beats fun for having a good time..." (From the Minnesota Barking Ducks - a blues band)"Don't take your self so ^&*@#$ serious! " ...aka RULE 62 (Chuck C. in his book "A New Pair of Glasses). PS. I actually have "Rule 62" tattooed on my .... , but I'll not show you!

I like this fun piece!Even the quirky ones need a home Bill...there may be a listing for this too in the not so distant future?I'll PM you if I see "Banchee" in any of the a la's
Earplugs may be required for anyone over the age of cool.
