A couple of guys I have started to play together and see what
happens. I am reluctant to use the word band.
But, as of now, it is me and two guys on guitar. So, in an attempt to
make the most when you have the least we are going to sing a few

I've learned a number of tunes just to learn 'em and they've not been
