Standing at my doorstep, a Jehovah's witness cries, 
she's calling me to worship some judge up in the sky,
but I don't think so my my. 

She say's that I'm a sinner and I guess she's probably right
I've manipulated women to keep me company at night
and I haven't been to church since my brother died in Belfast.

I appreciate her solicitations, they don't fall on stony ground,
and I bow before her goodness and the wisdom she has found,
but I don't need her coming around- I'm in Heaven.

Ave Maria, my little star of the sea.

I was strung out I was wrung out, hungover and ashamed,
drinking in a churchyard when someone called my name,
I thought it was my girlfriend, she sometimes plays these games
just to haunt me, to taunt me, to shower me in shame.

I don't know what i can tell you, the light was breaking in the East,
she had a child in her arms, she had a snake beneath her feet,
and she told me many secrets that I just can't repeat, 
Well, why would I ?

AveMaria, My little goddess of the sea.

And back here on my doorstep with this woman who would heal
 the cripples in the suburbs and all of those who feel
that to give it all away to something that might not be real,
It's crazy. Is it crazy ?

Ave Maria....

Ave Maria and a bottle of rum.  Stevek

Playing Mandola and Mandolin along with Planxty on the Jigs: The Hare In The Corn/The Frost Is All Over/The Gander In The Pratie Hole. More indulgence here I'm afraid.

Tommys Tune

Another rough recording of an acoustic tune. Meant to be called "Blister", but my keyboard is cked (?). Again, audio quality is not the best. Ableton still seems like black magic to me. Written on a nylon string. 
Tuning is: D55752

Bliser

Getting the Led out. Irish bouzouki arrangement of the Rain Song. First test of my new microphone.

Tuning for the bouzouki is #GDAD

A simple waltz of mine that I named after my adoptive state.  It seemed fitting.
Guitars by my Bellow Bridge band mate Philip Hitt.
