[blueswalker]

wow, ricky, glad to see yr vid again! this is one of my favourate blues piece:)

[RickyShades]

Thanks blueswalker. I know u could rip this tune. :)

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

Dude you always blow me away too bad I never see ya at the albert music hall, they need talent like you, not that there's none there now, but you know what i mean.

[RickyShades]

Thanks weirdal. Been meaning to make inquiries as to how to get "in" and play at that place. I certainly can use the local exposure.

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

They've got a pickin shed where people can just go and jam, there's good talent there, they'd love you. LOL they got a fantastic blues and flatpickin' guy there that's got a Martin D-28.

[RickyShades]

That's one of the places I've been meaning to go to, the "shed," :) Good place to network! "How" will they love me? LOL! :)

[RickyShades]

Oh, one more thing ... nobody's said anything yet 'bout me changing the lyrics to "New Joisey!" LOL!

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

I noticed. Just didn't say anything and loved it, now there's a Jewish pronunciation, my GM says it that way sometimes.

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

LOL they respect incredible talent, they love me, although I

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

Whoops, YT didn't let me finish writing... LOL They'd like you just because you're so darn good, I've heard so many of the "Greats" of the pickin' shed, and you blow all of them away, besides, I think you have a better voice than most of the guys there.

[RickyShades]

:) Thanks weirdal! LOL! I'm originally from North Joisey, which I think has a modified B'klyn accent. lol! I'll have to ck the schedule out for the Albert Hall so I can watch a great show AND do the "shed" thing! :) Thanks man!

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

Yeah my GM's from Brooklyn. The Albert hall (not the shed) goes from 7:30 to 11:30, and the shed is open from 7:00 (I think) to 11:15and at times during summer they have guys on the porch of the albert hall playing, and the guys from the shed will be pickin' in the middle of the parking lot. P.S. To me the shows aren't worth it, it's much more fun to actually practically be the show.

[RickyShades]

LOL! Duly noted! :) I'll remember to be myself and just beat up on my guitar... LOL! :)

[WEIRDALROXMYSOX]

LOL yup :)

[MaryAsinger]

A brilliant song this is!!
