Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Glad you were at least able to make an appearance. Hope you feel better. There's not a lot of sharing going on, but I've tossed a number of tracks from the archives up here. There's also a new track - which, if you're feeling down, I encourage downloading and playing locally. If you do so, you'll understand why I suggested it - and possibly feel a little better.

Buddha may not have wanted to give you a flowery speech, but I will as it's deserved.

Congratulations to TheBuddha and Crazy for their relentless effort in providing a venue for fellow musicians every Friday night for 4 years. Even during the Great Voat Outage and the closing of the same didn't stop them from finding a way to provide a place for musicians and listeners to share the joy of home-made music. It takes a lot more effort than most may realize to pull this off every week and in spite of near-death accidents, crazy people in their lives, and just the struggle of living a full life they have always found a way to make sure there was a place for others to share their joy of music.

The near perfect replications by the Buddha, Biff, and J, and their band at times, and Crazy's endless stream of real life put into songs, sometimes humorous, sometimes just blazing Rock with friends makes each Friday night something to look forward to in this crazy world of ours. It is indeed a blessing to have heard so many artists contribute over the years. We've lost quite a few during that time but someone new always shows up with yet another great tune and talents. Indeed, it has been more than just the music, friendships have been made that are quite valuable and touching.

So I just wanted to say Thank You to them all for the time, effort, and passion that is required to keep this going reliably for so long. Music is best, and meant to be, shared. I truly appreciate all the hours of enjoyment every one has brought, much needed at times just to make it through the week. A life without music and friends would indeed miss one of it's great joys!

I'm with Buddha man in thanking you for everything that you have done for us. You're archive is so much more organized than anything I have, if I want to play a song I've done in the past and shared with you all the easiest way to find it is the fngt.gq site. That's so awesome. I appreciate everything you've done!

VERY well said COF .. many blessings to all here FNTG. I'm finally back out playing again, and I've got some new songs in the pipe so I'll be able to participate again. Thanks for all the kind words that I've received here, they are most appreciated. Special thanks to The Buddha, Crazy and COF you are very much appreciated

So nice to hear from you again. Glad you're out performing, you have a gift that needs to be shared. Will be looking forward to hearing your new tracks. Take care.

Hell, them's some purdy words but you put in more time than some of us do at times. A hearty thanks goes to you for your many, many contributions.

And, you're right... I don't think people know how much effort and time this takes. By now, I've invested thousands of hours just for the thread. That's ignoring the myriad hours of practice and learning.

Fuck yeah nigger!

You know what? Another Metallica song:

Gotta give you mad props tonight because I've been taking you cats for granted. Incredible, this is. You got yourself an incredible band and major chops.

[–] • 1 pt

LOL Thanks! I'm surprised you'd not heard that one before. We've trotted it out a few times, I'm pretty sure. I think we may even have a version where it's just guitar.

Here is an original song that my friend Chris and I wrote together a year ago or so that we played again and better, fireside (soundcloud.com)

[–] • 1 pt

Hmm... Did you share that one before?

[–] • 1 pt

I shared a different performance of that song before yeah, but there were mistakes in that one worse than the mistakes in this one

[–] • 1 pt

I thought it sounded familiar. LOL

[–] • 1 pt

Appropriately named, sounds like it should be played around a campfire. Mellow and laid-back, nice.

[–] • 2 pts

When we wrote it we were sitting around a firepit. Chris says what should I sing about, and I tell him just sing about what you're doing, and that's what we do!

Here's one from the archives by @Grandmacaesar. Hope you're feeling better soon but glad you made it by.

Good call!

I'd say something about great minds thinking alike, but my mind ain't that great.

I still need to join. Put it off too long

Drop one of your tracks in a top-level comment and that's the price of admission.

If you're nervous, keep in mind that we have really low standards and are easily distracted.

I recorded a guitar lesson with my tutor after I discovered the H standard tuning.

Enjoy! https://youtu.be/uOgD5eCe0RU

Hey everyone, sorry I'm late. Been busy moving my girlfriend in. I was working on this new song this week and I was going to have Verle sing the lead yesterday, but he got all drunk with one of my friends and passed out. So me and my woman tried to do it. Here is what we came up with. puff puff pass (soundcloud.com)

I think we all know that when you're late or missing it involves a woman :). Congrats on your new addition to your life.

Another great tune, lots of wah-wah.

Another one from the archives that doesn't get trotted out enough...

Thanks. It's a good one. As memory serves, that one took some time to compose.
