Greensboro Woman, a Townes Van Zandt Song

I really like every thing that Townes does. Even though that one guitar string was not tuned and I was dealing with stage fright I had a good time doing it. First time ever on the video and nearly the first time on stage. Mostly I play around the fire, this time I was in it . . LOL Don

Great, the tone of your guitar and your voice mesh perfectly--I am from the south, but I am living in South America right now--makes me think of home.

Townes was a great joice he was one of my inspirrations as well. We must plant some seeds before we leave this world and go to meat the great spirit we all have a part. With music give many gifts we help to people, forget our pain, we make them smile, are cry, we bring,and we awaken emotions. Its a good thing so play on my brother.

Auntie Kaiwi used to tell me when I had stage fright to just remember my talent is a gift and that I should be humble and thankful for the privilege to entertain people, Not every body can. Somehow it made sense so I never worried about it again.Best wishes...

Aloha from Hawaii,

Thanks Thomas, a good thought. We started Sunday Morning Open Mic Breakfast show at Farmt to Family and after everyone went on I did a couple of songs and felt better than in April. I really enjoy it a lot, and hearing my own voice coming back from the trees that surround that stage area really sounds good and I found myself relaxing into it a bit more. I will keep going up every open mic, and I will remember what you have said, humble, thankful, and privileged .. . Don

You sound a lot like Guy Clark.

Knock it off Don! You're like me and too hard on yourself. I enjoyed your performance and thank you for sharing the video. It helped make my evening and I wish we were neighbors 'cause I've got a nice front porch that needs some guitar pickers... especially those who pick on Townes! :-)

Real good. Must have felt great performing. I'm knew and badly want to learn this. What's the pattern on the high strings? Any help would be much appreciated

Thank you Christine. I actually enjoy watching it. It makes me want to play more. Being on stage is a good thing for the spirit, being able express in the midst of the heart pounding. I am looking forward to when I can be totally relaxed. I guess I will have to get back up on stage to become okay with it. Everybody else seems okay on stage. . . Thanks for getting the vedio and doing the syc with the board. Don
