8 days of madness nearly cost your mind 
a trip in over drive fit to be tied
by liquid poisoned when the rage arrived 
you let it out this time and crossed that line 
they found you standing with a deadly stare 
and in the other hand the cross you bare
finally at peace in touch with your own soul 
at last you've gained control so where to go from here
time and change luster fades what once was shiny and new faded in you
my hope is strained nothing's gained from wishing
detached I'm back then lost and gone again 
your dirty medicine can't cure my sweet addiction
In tact impact bent in the aftermath 
survived without a scratch no holding back 
I'm looking forward to the time we spent
8 days when I pretend come back again
What you've been told's not what you want to hear
Truth hides in liars ears feeds off the fears of fools
A colorful blaze that burned for 8 days sparked by a vision of you
such a beautiful view from where I stand spontaneity planned 
here comes that feeling again oh that summer
next to you hot as summer
lately I feel like I've written my final song my fucking feet are dragging on and on and on I watch the birds attacking garbage thrown from the wall be dominant or starve and I'm not feeling small at all
time and change luster fades what once was shining and new faded in you
my hope is strained nothing's gained here comes that feeling again 
oh that summer
next to you natural as ocean and sand hot as summer
a colorful blaze sparked by a vision of you such a beautiful view 
from where I stand spontaneity planned 
here comes that feeling again oh that summer
next to you natural as ocean and sand hot as summer
next to you here comes that feeling again oh that summer

The Good with the Bad

There's a rust on the plow
But the dirt still turns
There's a blight on the trees
But the wood still burns
There's a mark on my heart
From when you left that day
But you're here standing with me
Now anyway

I take the good with the bad
'Cause I'm tired of trying to fix everything.

I got a headlight out
But the other one shines
I got ten miles of gas
But I only need nine
Sirens on the road
but they go they other way
There's a blood red moon
Before the break of day.

I take the good with the bad
'Cause I'm tired of trying to fix everything

I see the sun shine
through a broken window
I'm drinking moonshine
By the walls of Jericho
They call the wild card
of a one eyed queen
I got two nines and a suicide king

I take the good with the bad
'Cause I'm tired of trying to fix everything

The Good With the Bad

Kashmir

I love the blues and became determined to learn to play when I found my beautiful Eastman archtop guitar up for sale, second hand for a bargain price, in Jan 2012. As soon as I touched it I fell in love.

I first tried playing guitar several decades ago: with unrealistic teenaged enthusiasm I fully expected to sound like Hendrix within a month or two while practising just thirty minutes a week. I gave up when I still struggled to tune my guitar and the cowboy chords I'd learnt sounded really rough when I literally banged on them. Girls were much more interesting.

In my late thirties I had a mid-life crisis(!), so I  bought a US Strat and a Gibson LP Pro, determined to learn to be an ageing 'bedroom rock star'. I was working long and hard hours so only practised on odd weekends, always wondering why following tab and listening to CD lessons was not working. I decided I was tone deaf and incompetent, so yet again, I gave up, still unable to master bar chords, convinced I would never be able to play.

As an early retiree, I decided to give it a final attempt when I found my black beauty: the first few years were a journey of discovery, discipline and sore fingers. I practised most days (except when arthritis in my joints and a trapped nerve in my shoulder 'froze' my fretting pinkie and sent my thumb totally numb). Back then, I trawled YouTube and bought a DVD course of lessons, and plugged away. It was worth it as I really enjoyed the fairly limited range of things I could play.

When I first arrived on Soundcloud, I was not expecting to find such a talented and helpful community. I just wanted to upload a jam track for my friends to hear, then I found the amazing wealth of creativity here. 

Sadly, my frozen shoulder, trapped nerve and related problems have pretty much stopped my guitar ambitions since 2016.

However, I still have a blast exploring all the fabulous originals and covers so many relatively unknown, but hugely talented, musicians have conjured up for the SC community. In my first five weeks on here I downloaded c100 tracks and 'liked' hundreds more, and since then I have created many playlists that I regularly listen to depending on my mood...

Simon Cowell and his ilk (overpaid gatekeepers/brand creators/ubercapitalists) have, until now, throttled mass talent for the sake of creating a relative handful of extremely wealthy 'cash cow' celebs.

Who needs these supposedly 'professional talent spotters' and their artificially enhanced 'celebrities'? The internet rocks!

NB If you too suffer from joint pain, RSI or trapped nerves I highly recommend this free DIY pain relief site: it is not just for guitar related injuries but pain anywhere in the body pretty much, and the techniques used really do work - although for me, they provide just temporary relief. Good luck!
