Dont spend enough time with your back catalogue Dave- but this proves that i should.

My ode to the Big Apple and its environs.

I go downtown in the morning
I go uptown in the afternoon
I go to midtown in the evening
But in the nighttime when it’s cooking
That’s when I head over to Brooklyn, yeah

Walk over to the east side, do some "cook-ing"
Roll over to the west side, riding in the rain
Take the train to Jersey City, eat some spicy food
I’m in a big city state of mind, let me tell you what I do

I go downtown in the morning
I go uptown in the afternoon
I got to midtown in the evening
But in the nighttime when it’s cooking
That’s when I head over to Brooklyn, yeah

Made my way to Queens, I’m gonna catch up with some friends
Spill some coffee on my jeans and tie up some loose ends
End up in the Bronx, man I got totally immersed
Tried to find the center of the New York universe

I go downtown in the morning
I go uptown in the afternoon
I got to midtown in the evening
But in the nighttime when it’s cooking
That’s when I head over to Brooklyn, yeah

And I Love Her

And I Love Her- Collaboration With Eoin Shannon ( Beatles cover)

Our next song which we will upload soon will be a rather long song with over 10 minutes (well, it is about a very long journey...). So we decided to upload a short part of it - and at the same time a totally different version. This is the last part of the song, but with only guitar and vocals. In the final version there will hardly be a guitar, only at the very end and not the guitar you can hear in this version. Actually it is an ad-hoc guitar, not a version you would use in a studio recording. We often do this, improvising a guitar or piano accompainment to try out the vocals before the song is finished. We recorded this guitar improvisation and now added it to the final vocal version (we did not record the vocals at that time of the song) of the last part of the song. If you do not like long songs, you can try this short version here. But be aware that it is rather an ad hoc/live play, not really something we usually publish.
"...We missed our earth and our people so much. Oh how we want to feel again the earth's living touch. Our family faces we long to greet. We will be so happy when we finally can meet...."
We will provide the complete lyrics when we upload the final version of the song.

Sitting here, waiting for you..
When will you arrive? Don't have a clue!
But one thing I know for sure
I wanna make love to you!

Thinking of your sweet lips
Can hardly wait to give you a kiss..
Oh baby, are you coming soon?
I wanna make love to you!

Waiting...Waiting....Waiting....
Ohh I have waited so long..
My hair has turned grey
All I can do is wait and pray!

My hair has turned grey
All I can do is wait and pray!

Baby, are you ready for me?
I'm hungry for your love.. Can't you see?
Longing but still have faith
that you will come, so I will wait!

Waiting...Waiting....Waiting....
Oh I have waited so long..
My hair has turned grey
All I can do is wait and pray!

Oh baby, are you coming soon?
I wanna make love to you!

Still sitting here, waiting for you..
How long I have to wait, ain't got a clue!
Days and months turned into years..
But I still wanna make love to you!

For Pride Month. This is a rough version with just me and the guitar. The real version will be a 90's dance song, hopefully with not flat vocals, hopefully this weekend

This is not about you,
Your life is not about who I love, or the things I do
You’re not the one that I answer to

But it’s not about me
There’s more to my life than i will ever know, than i’ll ever see
I don’t hurt anyone just let this be

I have no voice but I can speak
I don’t like what you do to me
I say it’s time we make a stand

It’s more than tonight
It’s more than my fight
This is my right
This is my life

Do you feel the beat
It’s the pulse of the world
Where the people meet to let their flag unfurl

Do you feel it?

What does it matter to you
How i live my life, or what I believe, or the path I choose
Look inside, are you afraid to face the truth

We all need to be
Fragile and fearless, wild and free, you see 
for fate of the world, for our destiny 

Love is blind but I still see
And I don’t like what you’ve done to me
I see bloodstains on your hands!

Do you feel the beat
It’s the pulse of the world
Where the freaks all meet to let their flags unfurl

not about you (acoustic)

Del Wags is the music of Dave Wagoner: a collection of homemade tunes meant to please no particular demographic. Dave is a one- man show of rhythm guitar loops recorded in the basement, choruses born in the shower, lyrics written on the couch, and tracks mixed on the laptop (and the occasional cover). Go ahead, tap your feet.

I played only acoustic guitar and harmonica for many years, playing the same covers alone and occasionally with friends. I never thought I wanted an electric guitar or lots of music gear because I didn't want to accumulate more things. In 2019 by chance I obtained a cheap electric guitar from a friend, and my life changed as this new tool unlocked a creative door. During Covid I bought a looper and a keyboard and began teaching myself to play it, and the creative door flew wide open. I challenged myself to ride the learning curve of home computer music production. I re-tapped into my poetry-writing brain from high school and songs began flying out of me. I haven't been this creative since I was a teenager and it's pure joy.

I'm thankful to have a place here to share my creations, make connections with others, and hear so much unique and wonderful music and sound from people all over the world.
