I cried tonight !!
« on: September 27, 2020, 12:25:59 pm »
There's music, and there's music. I know it's not all for wild parties. The music I play (guitar/mandolin etc) is generally of the 'Folkie'
era. When the words mainly mean something, the tune is pleasant, and other musicians/singers can join in after a few bars...  :)

I found this recently, where Willie Nelson was 'jamming' with his sons! Singing "Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain"...  O.M.G. !!
You should hear one of his sons playing it for his Dad, with the emotions & love that he feels. He sounds SO much like Willie!!  :P
I played along too, as it is one I've played often, usually as backing/lead in the past when on stage with others...
Couldn't help the tears in my eyes, while I remembered many facets/places in my blessed past, when all was good, while playing it.

There IS a light at the end of the proverbial tunnel for me, and I think/feel/hope that it is moments like this that seem to come full
circle, and we remember what is/was important in life, and the people we've met & the things we have done. And that hopefully
some of that has made a difference to someone else along the road.  Please listen to the following track! With peace!   ^-^


Diagonal of 1x1 square = Root-2. Ok.
Diagonal of 1x1x1 cube = Root-3 !!!  Beautiful !!

Does this topic have any connection whatsoever with electronics/computing and similar?

If not, then perhaps your Fa(r)cebook page would be a more appropriate venue.

these posts complaining about classification are like some little kid finding a beer bottle and raging that it does not fit into his block sorter

There's some truth in that, but where's the boundary to be drawn in a very gray continuum.

these usually get one or two responses and go away (as opposed to something with the election in america or stuff about china or the english light bulb industry)

The whole interview is one of Parky's best. Those brothers where never afraid to be candid about their problems facing each other and indeed the music business.

Does this topic have any connection whatsoever with electronics/computing and similar? (etc)......

This forum category is 'General Chat'. I understand that this is 'generally' still relating to Technical topics, and 95% or more of
my posts/replies are of that nature. Then again, looking back at the last few pages of 'Topics', there have been inclusions of
the nature of Pics of your cat, life on venus, Architecture, pet peeves, covid-19, machining metals, coffee, bombs, pens/papers.
Do you denigrate those people too?  If you don't like me, that's fine. I simply mentioned something that made me feel good,
in a time when there is so much negativity in the World, and so many 'downers' that get talked about. And my main reason
for posting it was due to the uncanny verbal similarity with Willie Nelson's son, to him. The remaining commenters got it!!  :)

Please do not post this stuff, it is not wanted here.
Thread locked, next time it gets deleted without notice.
This is not the first time I've warned you about starting off topic posts I'm sure.
"Because other people do it" is not an excuse, do not add to it.
