Thanks for making my day a lot better, Don. Gotta' drive to the boat now and clean off 6 inches of snow.

Toss a couple flattened ninths in there and make it JAZZ!

Mason, you just keep out-doing yourself with fantastic, higher levels of brilliant silliness. Reminds me of an all-time favorite, "Shel Silverstein".

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS...you're good enough to WORK WITH ME (LOL)!

Russ, you will have to keep it clean, no four-letter words like you just used. Imagine saying "work" to a musician.
Of course I wouldn't want you to say "play with me" either.
Maybe we can "gig". I like frog legs.
DonM

I surrender to the master. Thought I was the "bwana of BS".

Now I'm not so sure!

Wait while I diminish this fifth...

In 57 I was 12 and had been playing in an Officers Club in Fairbanks, Alaska (Ladd AFB)for a year. Pop tunes were mainly by former country artists...Ferlin Husky...Bill Haley...Carl Perkins...Marty Robbins...the tunes, like Rock Around The Clock and many others were just slightly altered country pieces.

Truth be told, even though I make a claim as a jazzer, I've put many years on the country bandstand.

WHAT FUN! This is, in large part, what keeps me around here.

Thanks so much to the participants and to all those who put up with the silliness!

Against my better judgment, but I promised . . .
I actually tried to do this song at the end of the night. I forgot to do the complete chorus first time through, and did a ride too soon, and I didn't phrase a few things the way I had intended. Oh well, it takes nerve to post your bad stuff, but here it is because I'm sure I will never do it again. BTW, there were only a couple of friends left in the audience at this time.
