My wife and I wandered into a bar/pub in Bloomsburg, PA to get a late supper about 5 years ago. These guys started playing and the windows were rattling, the glasses and plates were rattling, even the fillings in my teeth were rattling. I don't know what a defibrillator feels like cranked all the way up, but I'm thinking this was about it. Drive was the exact word that I thought of that night. I honestly could feel the bass like it was in my chest, both the strings and him pounding on the body. You really get no feeling from this video, but... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One time was in an old converted church in Oxford, NY (hometown of JP O'Connor). We were in the front pew, honestly. She is an amazing guitarist and singer and the drummer here, Go Go Ray is the real deal. The church was right in the middle of town, houses all around and she played till midnight. I wondered what the neighbors thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes the song funny now! I was on a Childers binge last night, so that's why it's there. His new album is wild and gutsy! 1 Owner of over two decades of the most dangerous words on the internet!

BerniePragle Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Some good advice from John Nemeth. We've seen him twice, amazing harmonica player. He doesn't start playing till 2:00, but the kids on geetars are excellent too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the line : "Makin' my rounds all over town Puttin' out old flames" I'm generally not a big fan of country music, but they definitely have the catchiest or most insightful lyrics. Sometimes funny, sometimes tear-jerking. Also sometimes great instrumentals. There were good guitar and fiddle in this around the middle of the song. Very short though.

jross Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 In other news, my house's gymnast joined the high school wrestling club, and I don't know what to do with my hands. She could have the best grip strength of many girls her age, but this grasshopper knows little of technique and conditioning. A handful of practices and she was thrown to the varsity wolves in a tournament. The first match was nerve-wracking but her smile is fantastic! She doesn't know the scoring system but hasn't given up back points. She is 3-3 with 3 pins. What pinning move do you ask? The ol' half--- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will have a lot of benefits, some you may not realize now. What do you do with your hands? Sit on them! I'll give you a little something else to think about... Both of my daughters grew up long before girls wrestling became popular, but I always wrestled and played with them from the time they were tykes until they went away to college. Looking back, I've always been amazed that one of them or my son or me didn't fall wrong and break something. The older daughter played a lot of softball and the younger one was a distance swimmer. Both also took a few years of taekwondo. I'm very proud that I raised them to be mentally and physically strong. I worried a lot less when they went to college that they could get attacked and physically overpowered by a young man. The young man would have no idea what he was in for. Once they got a little older, I taught them that you don't play fair in those situations, nothing is off limits. The downside of this was that a few times they hurt me real bad. I still remember when the older one was maybe 2 or 3 years old, she wound up and out of the blue walloped me in the belly in a store or somewhere with a lot of other people. Only problem is she was about a foot low. Everybody but me thought it was hilarious. One time when the younger daughter was about 15 we were riding in an elevator somewhere and I started to pick on her pretending to box. She just ignored me so I relaxed and she punched me on that bone in your upper arm where all the muscles come together. I was actually black and blue for over a month. I didn't do that again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
