Hey Jay,

On the first question, it may be in A Mixolydian (sp?), which means a scale mode based on the 5th of the D scale rather than the root (A, B, C#, D, E, F#, G, A).

Hope that helps,

Really nice song!

Maybe we could rename the band to "Sans D7 and the Pips".

Since you have to sing the songs and play the fingerpicking parts you get to choose what you are comfortable with. ...

I like to think of it as more of a Supergroup.

You know we always defer to our leader to provide the playlist, unless you are ordering us to pick a song for next year.

That was great Sandy! But take care of yourself, I don't want to lose my gig as a Pip.
