The Dub Returns

ColchesterThe High School Lip has returned and is available for your viewing peasure. This year it was filmed during the school day so there was a much higher participation. The song was a bit shorter and they decided to stay on the first floor only. I personally did not care for the song as much as last year but it's okay. If you are really looking for me, I am towards the beginning where they go through the auditorium and the kids are actually singing. I am with my Coffeehouse compadres holding my Indiana Guitar. This is around the 3:10 -3:15 mark. You may even notice that I am not playing, but I am giving a low key peace sign. As it was last year this was a lot of fun and truly shows some of the high energy school spirit our students have.

Enjoy

Latest Coffeehouse Performance

So we had a fun night at the coffeehouse. It's starting to feel like I am becoming the "mandolin" guy for these. This is fine and I think it's fun, but I should probably work to get a few more chords under my belt if I am going to continue with this.

Here is the link to a nice song: Pretty Young Maid in the Garden

and here is a link to one of my college fav's from Irish Happy Hour at the Last Chance Saloon. (not that I ever went and drank :) ) Black Velvet Band. By the way, I never imagined I would someday be playing this on a stringed instrument. It's amazing how life works.
