So about 7 weeks ago I decided to shove my fist into an attacking pit bulls mouth. I would advise against it if you could avoid it. I was coming to the defense my much smaller dog. She is fine but my middle finger got torn up pretty good. I started pressing it against the strings about a week ago. I forgot what it was like to have beginner's finger pain. But now I can relate.
:laugh: :laugh:

I tried uploading this through the busking uploader but had an issue or two so here is a link.

Hello John. Great to see you are back on the site with some more music! I did notice that you had made a comment or two recently so my hope was that you found your way back after a year or so of being away.

Nice job on the Fogerty song! I have always liked the intro riff.

Echoing Bart, great to see you back with a cool tune again John!

I'm sure it's been a pain after the dog-incident, but I'm glad that it seems you haven't lost your chops at all.

When you started the song, it reminded of IGC 2013 when you did 'Rock This Town' I believe. That was so awesome and for me personally such a fun moment. I just couldn't stand still. :laugh:

Best to you John,

Glad you're back John. Well played. You've got a smooth touch on those strings.

Oh thanks everyone.

I wanted to give the background on the dog 'attack'. My wife Laura and I were looking at adopting this dog. We recently lost a four legged family member and were trying to fill that void in our home. This particular dog could be classified as a rescue. He is a pit bull. He appeared to have gone through some tough times. He was missing an eye for one thing. We brought our other dogs to meet him and that's when the incident happened. It just came out of nowhere and in an instant. It's sad because It wasn't the dog's fault. It's my belief that he was intentionally damaged by some human failure. As Paul Harvey used to say, "That's the rest of the Story".

Great song really well played and sung John, great drive and flow throughout.

Whats the gen on the guitar, pretty unusual looking. Great sound! What's it made of?

Good to see you back posting!

Well done John, that was very impressive. You rocked that out of the park. Brilliant!
And welcome back.
