Subject: RE: 'Support the Troops' songs???
Well, as I thought I had said (but perhaps not) I did My own "God's Will" which, just as I thought, went over everyone's head and they thought it was about how God is gonna get the Osamas of the world. The one guy who did get it was Vietnam vet who is very anti-war and he gave me a high five right after my performance as I was walkin' back to my seat in the auditorium...

The 2nd song was "Drummer Boy" and it came off almost perfectly... I was going to do it on my cigar-box geetar but there was something wrong with the bass string electic pickup and so I borrowed a geetar from one of the other performers, tuned it to open G (where the cigar box stays) and let the song rip... It sounded real good with a member of another band just playin' a march on the snare...

Got alot "good job's" afterward from all kinds of folks...

But I am glad it's over...
