Sounds rough.
Glad to see that you're pulling yourself through that kind of darkness and on a seemingly better path.

I’m not totally writing fucked up songs. Here’s another song about the same woman. It’s called Fairytale Lover

I got a fairytale lover but I keep her to myself
Was afraid if you learned of her she might come down from her shelf
She loves me and only me and that is one thing that’s for sure
Who’d have thought my fairytale lover was a whore

Yeah my fairytale lover likes to cheat behind my back, guess it’s good I kept her secret or we all might have the clap. If I see her with that guy I swear I’ll break his nose again, then I’ll squeeze him by the throat til rigormortis sets in.

God I love that woman she has got a hold on me
And I love it when she squeezes til I can no longer breath
Then she asks me if I’m cheating and she says I’d better not
When all the while she’s with some guy at least til he runs out of pot

Yeah my fairytale lover stuck a knife right in my back, she swore up and down she’s faithful but it seems she skipped some facts. When I think of what she’s done I swear I can’t believe her nerve she says she was seeking vengeance although I was true to her.



Wanna see I gotta move ?

You nag me in the morning and you nag me through the day. You tell me that you’re leaving but unfortunately you stay. The knife is in my back and now you’re twisting on the blade. And Jagger’s song is telling me something he didn’t mean to say
I gotta move.
Lord knows I gotta move.
I gotta move
Lord knows I gotta move.
I got to cruise on woman, and get as far as I can from you.

You give an ounce of love and then you want three ounces back. I glance at some cute lady and for weeks I’m under attack. I stare into the mirror wondering why I get no slack. I’d leave you in your mansion just to starve in an old dirt shack
I gotta move
Lord knows I gotta move
I gotta move
Lord knows I gotta move
I got to cruise on woman, and get as far as I can from you.

I’ll spare you from “ Strokin”. 🤣

Hey guys I just found the perfect 20w amp to go with my 4 lb guitar and the socks I wear under my gigging crocks! AND it it has all the gain anybody would ever need to play even the heaviest Steely Dan songs!

Only thing that bums me out is this new 20w amp is just a bit heavy for me. Does anybody know how to make a 20 watt amp lighter, like maybe swapping out for smaller transformers or something?

Tell those fucks at the gear page to let their wives carry it for them

The crazy part is

Especially if you're gigging all the time

Bands who use real gear sound better, consistently, no contest, no question, until you're playing theater sized venues where the gap evens out a little bit. But EVEN THEN, real amps sound better most of the time IMO, because most people don't take the time to dial their modelers well.

The TGP types wail about how their grab-n-go pedal modeler is better because it's light or whatever, then they play and they're completely at the mercy of whatever the sound reinforcement is

I use modelers to practice everyday and they don’t sound great . There’s a digital sheen my ear always heard
