I've been working on writing some songs and getting my act together to record some material. A friend showed me that it's easy to record videos on your phone and post them on youtube so this is my first effort. Having just turned 70 I've been thinking a lot about my mortality and this song came to me. This is a rough draft first effort which I will improve on. I just wanted to go through the process to see how if I could do it. So..........here it is.
It has also occurred to me that we could have a thread where folks could post videos for the amusement of other sounholeans. I would have posted this in the songwriting section but there's been no activity there for years.

We have a whole Board for that. Multimedia - MP3 and Videos
Although I see nothing wrong with posting the Cafe as long it doesn't get loaded with newbie videos. That is why there is a board for such things and people that want to have a place to view them. |

Hey, that's great. Been doing that myself for a few years. I also learned that Facebook, for all it's faults, does offer the option to share that with all your friends over there. In fact you can create a second FB page and use it as a "band" website (i.e.- The Ken Larsson Lightning Project)- for free and apparently forever- to share these videos beyond the limits of this site.
May be helpful to you.

That board has not been used for years so I figured posting there would be a great way of having nobody see the video which may be the best idea of all. |

Ken - You dyed your hair white since last time I saw you !
Nice. - You can edit out the opening shot of your legs and such, right there on your phone before you upload it.

Just mention in the daily that you have a new video on that board. Using that board is a way of getting others to use it and pay attention to it. Not that I mind a Senior Member posting such in the Cafe. But I would if a bunch of Newbies filled up our Café with their videos never to be heard from again. |

BTW Ken. I'm just stating my opinion, I'm not the Admin anymore. If you want forum policy talk to Todd, he is the Admin. |

I like your guitar style, Ken! Very relaxed and effective.
Thanks for posting. It takes a little courage to do that.

Hi Ken, like Shannon, I really like your guitar style as well. With that cool rhythm you've got that neat one man band vibe going on. Nice voice and lyrics, too!
