Improvement a bit at a time is what keeps me going :)

Thank you! 😊 I'll try it again when my violin playing is a bit better too

Thanks and I had a peek at your channel too and subscribed. I look forward to more. Frank is a great musician and does a lot for the community. I don't know him personally but he seems wonderful

@MichelleFrets you're very welcome! And thank you 😊. Yes Frank is an amazing musican & human ❤️. So glad to have found you through him. . ✌️ have a great week

Heavy country music

It's a pity MeWe chose to alienate so many people. I'm close to walking out the door just because a social media platform needs people using it and MeWe barely has any. They should have written articles in plain language that listed what was going to be possible from the user perspective versus what has been impossible. Instead they offered articles of techno-babble and bullshit. I'm hating my voice again today. As often as not for part year, singing lessons cause me to feel hopeless. This last one especially so. I'll get over it. Thanks, John. I follow your music here on youtube as well.

My singing teacher asked me where my tendency to talk in songs came from instead of singing. I didn't know but thought maybe it came from a time when I couldn't sing whatsoever. Also, maybe, when I first started to get interested in making music several years ago Townes and others of the genre were what I was listening to a lot. Anyway, both she and I want me to sing more and talk less but I still like this style a lot. Thanks Frank

It went better than I thought. The young lady to my left that looked back regularly seemed to like my first tune before they all departed

what happened at 2:56 ? Thanks Friend :)

Thank you Steph :) I really like the lyrics to this song a lot

I'm happy to have gotten through it without truly messing it up. I don't know if I get caught up in the imagery of the lyrics or what, but I often mess up. I adore this song

Not precisely as the songwriter did it.. my interpretation :) I could have used some bass. I'm talking myself into that idea

It could use a little breathing room before repeating. 1 minute probably better. Or.. variations on the theme for several minutes

Long and powerful reverb :)

The microphone and traditional music transcends me into a much earlier time. lol

the acrylic paint has arrived to make it extra artsy :) and thanks :)

Thanks! I'm a work in progress - haha :) It just occured to me to figure out a violin part for Whiskey Girl. Hmm

Thanks Steph. I think my progress with violin with do better now that my allergy is under control. My neck has been a real thing the last months

I adore that song :) thank you

Thank You! I know that the violin is scratchy and not 100% on pitch. Same with my voice. ... but overall I like the progress. My life is slowing down again finally. Should get back to social media-ing again soon. Best Wishes!!! <3

I think I've lost objectivity with the tune. Maybe it's just my recording of it that is disappointing. I always remember the sound from the monitor being so much different than what I end up recording. Perhaps I'm going insane. Thanks for watching/listening :)

@@MichelleFrets not Miss Frets admirable to say the least

I had a guitarin' hiccup just before my vocal started. Weird... but I guess I maybe will always have somethin going on

My joke didn't pan out though. Hahaha :) thanks Steph!

I'm going to keep working at improving until I can have a whole set. Then.. I'll keeping working it some more :)

Brava! Your singing was spot on and your picking is always terrific!

I'll have a listen later tonight :)

Very cool Miss Frets i cant see any welcome wearing out with talent like this your a natural🎼

Yeah. I don't know why some people poo-poo Yamaha guitars just on principle

Hoo! I like it :) Is there a story behind the name that you could relate?

@@MichelleFrets It just sounded right

I dunno about this but you get top markx for making me giggle for several minutes!!! :)

Thanks :) I need to work out what to do for another 4 measures in the violin. That would make an 8 measure loop and take me through the "tangled up in blue" phrase

I'll be back to MeWe before long. Overall I haven't been feeling well and am slipping behind in projects. I'm cutting back on "open mic" stuff too. Probably just two in July plus one song at an open air festival

Oh! I like your suggestion too!!

Hmmmm :) maybe an Italian version of Roxanne.

Michelle Fretts😅

@@skippylanoue966 I can't name a guitar after myself :)

@@MichelleFrets sure you can🤣....of course you ain't naughty 🤔 ,..... Okay, I guess you can't 😊

Thanks John :) I wouldn't want to become reliant but maybe a pint of Loghouse Lager beforehand helps 😂 I need to figure out how to keep my guitar strap from slipping on my clothes. That was my main issue with guitarin' that night

That is a lovely idea! I'd feel quite pleased to be included. Thank you :)

The chapters feature is a very good idea

that little loop worked out :) I've discovered a bad thing about my cheapo looper though. Even when recording a constant sound it'll make a blip when the loop repeats. Maybe they're all like that -- but I doubt it

Thank you :) I didn't know lyrics existed for this. Now it'll be worth spending more time with this lovely melody!

When I recorded the piano part I should have gave a measure or two of beats before really starting so I'd have a chance to get on the violin before it got going on playback. Next time :) It is getting better but.. ya know... it's fretless

A pint of nice beer doesn't hurt :) Just kidding, I often don't have paralyzing nervousness anymore. I like this type of audience too. Loud and having fun with their own conversations is fine by me. I know I am still being heard :)

I don't mind really when it seems few people are paying attention. It doesn't mean there isn't a component of their brains listening even if they aren't looking at me. If they have fun and I have fun then it's perfect from my point of view :)

I played this song outside today in almost the same spot :) Thanks Steve . You did very well last night at the Loghouse. One of your best yet
