Thanks for your positive and thoughtful comments on Wake Up Charlie. Things are certainly winding way down here and it was a nice treat to hear from you :)

Very kind of you, Chip, to still be listening in and giving comments. Thank you for the nice words about Summer's Got the Ball.

Thanks Chip! Your comment on "Enough" makes me feel the song is "enough" as is :)

Many thanks for your kind comments, I find I work really well with Cindy’s words

Thanks for your kind words, Chip. Glad you came through the storm ok. What a scary time!

Thanks for your comment! I won't be a one man band, cause I have no intentions to sing or play all instruments. My midi drafts explain my ideas as I have way more talent composing and mixing than playing and recording.

Felicitats on 25 yeas together.

We'll be celebrating 36 years together next year. Strange to think I will have been with Carmen longer than my mum was on the earth (she died in a car accident, in Nigeria, aged 36)

Chip, I’m glad Night Comes For Everyone affected you so powerfully. I love what Eric did with the lyric, and I find myself playing that song almost every day. I love it, too. So great when a musician “gets” what I have in mind and makes it real, so others can share it, too. Thanks for your comment.

Thanks for the kind words. Stay safe in the storm Chip!

It's a bluegrass classic! Thanks!

I added you 😊

Great!:

Hey Chip. I wondered if your not too busy, if you could pick up my In a Bluegrass Minute?

Thank you Chip for your wonderful comment on Love is Blind :)

I knew I had "Let me dip my bucket in your well" on YouTube. Bing is a useless search engine.
Here it is:

Chip, "Almost Gone" (https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/8058) now has a B3 (emulation) It sounds pretty close and it's free. Does plugin and standalone so however you do what you do.

Good question Chip. I had to think about that. The answer is mostly no but sometimes yes! However I always have a syllable count in my head which gives me the roll of the song so maybe its why it usually sounds like I know the music. Also I write a lot for artists out of Fawm 50/90 so I try hard to make then easy to sing.

thanks for your comment on the rooster. waits affects his voice. when he first hit LA he ws sounding more like arlo guthrie. but then he started aping his best friend, chick e weiss and developed his persona. me, i dont have any persona. i just sing songs how i feel them. i am fortunate in that there is no money invested in me so nobody is telling me what to do.

Thx so much for your awesome comment on feel like I can fly ! You having a real productive 5090 I have some listening to catch up on

Thank you for listening. Yes, Cindy and I have done a couple of ghost songs and children's songs and this was a great opportunity to bring them together. I remember when I was younger the Ghost House was always my favorite to visit at the Fair.

I added you to my Crow song. Thanks

Thanks Chip. I am not sure if Marthie is going to do my crow song or not. She is so busy. Go ahead if you want to, as I wouldn't mind having two!

Hi. I wondered if you would like my Pedals of Love?

Thank you also for a Lonely Bike. I appreciate it.

Hi Chip, thank you for your kind comment on Dance on the Rocks. It's kind of you to think of giving me a credit for the title, you don't have to though. Titles aren't copyrighted. If you are happy to mention my song that's cool. I'm looking forward to reading your lyric and I'll let you know if I have music for it :)

I added you thanks

All set with the new song with my dad. Can’t wait to listen!

That'd be great Chip!

Thanks. I have been watching how to videos for days, and practicing that lick.

Perhaps you would find something you could work with in Morning Song

Thanks for the encouragement on “Chase Me” - I needed that!

Thank you Chip. A double pleasure to know, I brought joyful sounds into your relationship with your daughter!

Thanks Chip!

Thanks a lot for your kind words on "The Wind". I'm glad you enjoyed though I'd never (!) see myself as singer and guitarist. I love big arrangements! Let's see what happens with that song.

Thanks for the comments on 'Lonely City' - the sirens were intentional on this, but I remember living in Boston and hearing them all the time. I learned to sleep with a heavy down pillow over my head!

Hi Chip, thank you for your lovely comment on I'm Not Sick, I'm glad it changed your day, and I hope your family recover quickly and fully. Didi

Thanks for the comment on 'A Life of Unfulfilled Dreams'!

Hi Chip . I wondered if you'd be interested in my Blind Date? It does mention yoga :)

Thanks for the comment on Alone. And yeah, check out the show. You know, as long as hunting and watching people starve themselves doesn't bother you. :P

You are now a collaborator on Being Ahead :)

I love the music you added to The Tomato Man. I added it here: https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/346
Wow.

thanks chip, yes, i nearly tagged it mental health but chickened out! glad the different meanings come across

Thanks so much for your comments on "No Name Song" - so appreciated!

Hey, Chip - interesting idea about having the I and You be the same in my Sick and Tired song. I was thinking of there being a literal second person who is getting dumped on in the first verse, then the singer begins to pull up a little and realize it's not just the other person...I think my life flows better if I don't always believe my own story lines...I would love to do some collaborating sometime over the 5090 if you're up for it.

To answer your question, the dead and co. show was great! Setlist was fantastic, & the playing had some great moments of adventurousness while still being really engaging. Bob Weir voice was a little rough (it was the last show of the tour and his watt 75?). Go look up the set list for dead and co at Citi Field July 16 and it’ll give you some idea. …

Sometimes a little giraffe song is needed to cheer me up. It seems to give listeners a jolly tune. PS. I am fond of your banjo and uke songs. I used a mandola for a song, next week maybe I will resurrect my banjo. I would like to use some guitar background like you do, but I do not have a guitar. So I am trying to make something on GarageBand to improvise. Might be a couple weeks, but on my to-do list.

Ayyyyy! Thx for the kind words, Ohio is home to a lot of my favorite bands, I also really love the ass ponys/wussy. I went to recording school in Chillicothe and have always felt at home in OH.

welcome back, great to see ya back here!

Hi Chip! A suggestion from a beginner banjo, as you're the ultimate FAWM banjo. Set up a banjo forum thread a la the #FUC. I feel, at my present state of play (! see IKEA!) not up to it, and besides, look what happened when I invented #FUC... You could always keyword it FAWM lovers/learners of Banjo--- #FLOB!

Hi there. Hope you have a good 50/90. I've got my ukuleles ready to go! Hope to hear some of your tunes soon.

Hey neighbor!
