Moved here from Boston in 1994. The Bee gee's wrote a song about Massachusets.

[pickerdillo]

Thanks for watching, folks... and thanks for embracing an area where the people have been so supportive! I hope to get up for a visit soon!

Cheers, Chuck

[pickerdillo]

Anything I can do to help here?

[pickerdillo]

Thanks, bro!

Although I don't live there, the people in your area have welcomed me and my music for the past few years, and have made me feel good every time I come to your town. The beauty of the mountains and lakes speak for themselves, I think. All that negative stuff is, well... just noise.

Dude!

Good geography... bad poetry

[pickerdillo]

I'm sure we're all happy you've found a better world to live in

this is the number one stupidest thing I've ever seen. Redding is only cool if you're more than 60 years old and share a common hatred of young people with all the other old bags in this hick ridden redneck town. And this guy isn't really playing any of those guitar solos. This is bullshit.

I loved this video. I am away from home on an internship and am just aching for my home town. Thank you for putting my exact feelings into a wonderful song!
