:D  :paranoid:

Sorry, lady, it looks like you'll have to wait a while longer. Youtube is doing maintenance and I couldn't upload just now. But I will keep trying.

And Gunner22, don't tempt me. I used to do SCOM, as well.

Just be careful what you ask for. Sometimes, you get what you are asking for.

It's probably been ten years since I have done this song. Just remember, you could have prevented this.

"Patience" by Guns and Roses, covered by me.

As of right now, 8:53 pm, CDT, it says the video is still being processed.

You're being to kind. I screwed up a chord. On the last part it goes D G F G D. Instead of F, I went to A, which put me half an octave higher and threw me off.

So, I've recorded it again with the right chord. We'll see if that one turns out better. I'd thought of just recording the ending but thought, no, I will do the whole song over again.

Here's another stab at it, with the right chords and a cool voice crack.

It's titled pat2.

That's awesome ron, it takes balls to do that. Sometimes I'll be singing along to a GNR tune, and then a member of my family will walk in the room, and I'll have to stop and pretend I wasn't doing anything. And then it's a bit awkward, anyway......

I've performed in public and for friends and family for a really long, long time. So, I'm kind of used to it. What is ironic is that I'm a tall guy. 6' 6" and about 220 lbs. I look like a biker, even with short hair nowadays. Yet, I have a high, soft voice, at least for singing. I speak in mid-baritone.

Just keep singing, anyway. Even if you hit a wrong note. Everyone hits a bad note. It's only perfect on a studio album where you can have several takes and punch in the one you like.

It's not that I don't think I sing well, I can actually pull off a wide range from deep voices to axl-like raspy screams, it's just that hardly anyone I know, family or friends, appreciates that type of singing as is only really found in rock music. It's also as I'm singing to myself really, and I can see them thinking, 'Ok...whatever'.  :paranoid:

Then you just need the audience that appreciates you. So, get in the ring. Put something up here.

Indeed, I pretend I was just thinking out loud. Same happens to me when I'm air drumming... So lame...  :lol:
