IF ONLY I’DA

Original lyrics by Stan C. Countz It’s easy to sit on the sidelines and call out all the winning plays It’s so easy to sit and say “I’da done it a whole different way…” When you’re sloggin’ through the mire, it’s hard to think of sunny days When you’re passin’ through the fire it don’t feel like a passin’ faze But it’s another thing to hit the ground runnin’ and play the game You can’t point the finger; got no one else but yourself to blame This goes against the grain but you’ll never be...

Music Theory

Now Available for Review is the Intro to Music Dials Video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtoMMS5kdRE Hey fellow musicians… Ron Greene here, There are a lot of decent music theory books, tapes etc. on the market these days, and many of them provide good technical content. However, most of the information in them seems to lack specific details that otherwise, really never get you to the point of playing your instrument.

If you haven't got the money or home recording facilities, you can still promote your music as demos on the internet and sometimes producers and songwriters or other singers will offer to do a recording or mix for you. This is a good way to get known and you can upload the... Read Full Story

Songs in THE RAW!! Sept 20

OK...I'm stuck. I laid down the guitar part yesterday for this week's song and I have no idea where to go now. So, I've decided to write a bit about what I am thinking about and see if it leads me some where. Plus, the guitar part mutated as I recorded it and now I am in an entirely new vibe. The idea that keeps floating around in my head is "Something to believe in". It started out as "Some one to believe in" but that might lead me to a political rant. I did that last week and don't want to... Read Full Story
