Hey thanks again Pierre. Yes we are all (human beings or descendants of Australopithecus as you referred to) a bit slow to learn eh? Thanks a lot for commenting.

Tony-

"aaaah, what we have here is absolutely No failure to communicate..."

That was really, really good man! I agree with Chris that your ability to pull the listener into the story is
really something. And, I agree with Mark that I'd rather hear you do it than axel rose any day.
Your "Streets of London" post was very, very solid as well. Dug it the most, as you and Travolta
would say... Cori


TRIVIA:5 Australian dollars if you know what movie that line (at the top)
that opens this song (on the album) is from...

5 more if youknow the actors name who uttered these words ...

Hint: The late leading man is also famous for salad dressing

If I win, put it in MattB's fund.

Ahhh, yes michele (spot-on) you are an avid movie-goer I see... for a bonus do you know the actor's name (of the
high- pitched, squeaky-voiced prison camp boss) that spoke these famous lines?

Hey thanks a heap Cori. I was pretty pleased with the result here. Love the tune and I was a big Guns n' Roses fan, or more of a Slash fan actually. Shel beat me to the quiz answers...I knew Cool Hand Luke but don't know the name of the actor who uttered the famous "failure to communicate" lines. Who was it?

Thanks Willem, I'm glad you could follow it OK. I agree, a nice solo would add considerably.

Tony,

As I've said to you privately, it's just a pleasure watching the progress you've made in your strumming. If I'd make any suggestion at all, it's to bring more variety to the strumming. It's a long song, and a bit more variety would make it that much more compelling.

Tony,
I didn't know that song at all, but it sure sounded good to me. Your singing fits all of your songs, and this was no different. Very easy to listen to, anymore GNR songs you'll need to change the hat out though!

More proof that you're not afraid to push yourself, Tony.

Great job here. I agree with you and I wouldn't change/lower the key.

Is 'Patience' far off?

Tony,

I am not familiar with much GNR, but I think that you did that very well.


Thanks for another fine job.

Bob
