if my son hit you in the head with a stickball bat you'd need water too, mal

OMG. You just made my mocha come out of my nose.

Little bratty kid.........................

Don't go there or the pictures of us sitting on Shane's lap will pop up.................

[LESTERPOLYESTER]

Damn, we were out of our skull's by 8:05pm............. Check out the clock...........

who are you kidding vin? we were out of our skulls before we left the motel at 4:30

[buffettbride]

And pretty soon you'll be strummin' Southern Cross on the back of a truck at a Howard Johnson motel in Newark, DE!!

Yep, one of my favorite pictures.................. (the face shot, not the one of me turned sideways)

this one?

I never saw that one.................. Cool...............

and my favorite... i think this was when we were all singing Southern Cross or forgetting the words to Nautical Wheelers. followed, of course, by a group

Damn, we were out of our skull's by 8:05pm............. Check out the clock...........

And that was pre-shotgun.

Shaney is standing right in front of where my rum was, but I'm sure it was already 'bout empty. That mighta been more like 10:05 'cause my camera was on mountain time, now that I think about it. Unless we did that right after Shane got there 'cause 'member he got there late? My drink is the nearest green-cup. And it was before I made Davey give me his shirt.

My drink is in the glass next to the roll of toilet paper I was gonna take as a keepsake, but I forgot it......... That and the pictures on the wall in my motel room...............

[LaTda]

soo you're sure you want to learn to do this??

play the guitar I mean

LMAO

[buffettbride]

it will take him far...

[HsvParrothead]

I've owned a guitar for over 10 years now and have never been able to play it. A friend of mine is determined to teach me and began tonight with teaching me the G, C, and D chord. I know it's gonna take some time, but I can't wait to start playing songs. My question is..................

What are some extremely easy songs out there that I can learn to play rather quickly? I really want to learn some Buffett, but I'm up for anything that's incredibly easy. Thanks!

Couple of easy starters I would suggest...

Tampico Trauma
Great Filling Station Holdup
CILCIA

A great site to check out is www.getinyourcrib.com
Pretty much any artist you can think of with an extensive library of chords and tabs (both lead, rhythm and bass) includes entire albums of Jimmy's... great search features as well

Good luck, have fun and remember:

"Practice does not make perfect. Perfect Practice makes perfect."

Therefore, take it slowly and really break everything down into individual components.. if you dont learn to play correctly and clean now then it will make it that much more difficult to correct later... every repetition is teaching the muscles. It's more difficult to correct what is set into muscle memory than to learn something new!

Been a pretty good weekend.............. brought home my new Fender Strat yesterday.................. Steelers win AFC today....................and a rumor that JB will be coming back to Starlake in early June..............
Life is good heres a pic of the new guitar http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b357/ ... G_0755.jpg

I am in a similar bind. Owned a guitar for a while and just starting to learn now. Check out www.guitarnoise.com for a few good free lessons. specifically www.guitarnoise.com/article.php?id=56 which is the lesson on Margaritaville. Real easy to play once this guy explains it to you.

[Bob Roberts]

Can somebody with playing experience and a couple of minutes check the chords for Door #3 on the Cobo website? Something is not sounding right.......
