Hey! I am daily inspired by Vic over at Gimmeabreakman, among other Youtubers that I have been watching, to get in the Youtube act for myself. I am hooked on this new media amateur t.v. Somedays it is better than any soap opera!
Anyway, I would like to become a regular vlogger, but I know that if I go by my previous record in regular type blogging, I'd better not set my sights too high. I write songs from time to time, so I'll try to get song performances posted up here.
This first one is just me and a guitar. As any experienced user of iMovie will see, I am experimenting a little with the video editing features. It's all up from here...
This song is one I just wrote in the last couple of weeks. I hope to get a few videos up with more instrumentation, so we'll see how many of my band members we can crowd into my music room in the coming weeks.
Thanks for watching.

The lyrics to this song:
I got my information second-hand
That life was better in the promised land
Now my shoe leather's gone
And the scenery's all wrong
'Cause now I'm finding what it really means
True love is harsh compared to love in dreams
Of a broken canon law
Like a sinner's first hallelujah
There's a lock for this key
But the map is incomplete
I don't know
How to go
But if you'd set your eyes on me
You'd set me free
The truth is slippery but it seems to me
You find it mainly in uncertainty
When the volume's turned down
But you're singing
The promise isn't necessarily
Just exactly what they said it'd be
It doesn't have to be true
If it gets you where you're going to
I'm totally with firebourn on the requesting a how to play video!
I LOVE IT!!! (you've got a metalhead saying they love something that isn't metal, that's hard to do)

@lordifan0609 Oh. I thought that meant that he was gonna do one. I am falling over myself to finish a degree at the moment, but when that's over, I hope to do a whole bunch of new stuff.
Thanks for the comment. Hard Rock Hallelujah was enough to make me a metal fan, or at least a Lordi fan :-)

I don't mean to infringe on your intellectual properties rights but, how about a how to play incomplete video.
This song rocks and I will totally drop you name to anybody that listens to me play it.

Of course, use it as you wish! And I am glad to hear that you like it. We are working on the studio version right now!

Hey man, thanks for the comment, and sorry for the slow reply, we were out of the country. We aren't in LA, we're in Japan, in Nagoya. Let us know when you are in the country!
