Re: Check Out This Link

Cowpoke, I love the the new video for Gentle, I must say I wanted to put on my ruck sack and go to Wales and climb up Tryfan mountain again. It was nice that they do acknowledge Glen in the second post. I suppose with the film getting a long release, the video would probably help sales for the Band ...

Re: I'll Be Me

These reviews are all wonderful and honest. The Meganblog I thought was especially heart warming. I can understand the feelings very well in that review. It must have been difficult for a lot of people attending the goodbye tour. Many will have fond memories of Glen in his prime and the thought of w...

Re: Fans' Collectibles (Photos and Posts about Your Memorabi

Oh right, Thanks Cowpoke. I must admit I never noticed the published date on the report. I assumed it was a recent event.
I hope Willie is back in a secure position again. It must be great to be able to do something you love and be able to go out and build financial secure future.

Re: I'll Be Me

Cowpoke I like how Skip references The moon's a harsh mistress in this review. That tells me he has some experience of Glen's music. I know it has been said before but it is probably true when I was younger I used to be non committal about what I liked in music as I felt what I enjoyed was not cool ...

Re: Me and My Guitar

Thanks Jay, I was as excited as a puppy in a room full of rubber balls. I spent a lot of time looking but as soon as I started to play this thing the sound just took me to another place. I suppose memory,nostalgia and all those associations play a big part in these things. When I tried a number of t...

Re: Your Concert Experiences

I was there Cowpoke. I managed to get a front row seat right on the end of the row. I wanted to go, to at least say,I saw him at the Festival Hall. I think you are right, I felt Glen didn't seem as comfortable singing some of the newer material as he did the old favourites and not using his guitar s...

Re: Fans' Collectibles (Photos and Posts about Your Memorabi

I must say I love Glen's coat in that top photo. The Willie Nelson photo made me smile. Glen looks pristine with his pristine guitar and Willie looks as worn out as Trigger. I read the guitar was spirited away before the IRS could get their hands on it recently. Very sad, a man of his years of enter...

Re: Me and My Guitar

Hi Jay, You will probably scream at me but I have bought an Ovation Celebrity Elite Plus CE44P-8QT. It was on special offer and having played with it for half an hour I decided it would do for what I wanted. I love the maple top and the action and sound are great. My thinking is that it will work we...

Re: Video of the Week: CMA Awards 2011 Tribute

Hi Guys, sorry so late coming in on this discussion. Its been a very busy week for me. Always the way. sometimes very quiet then suddenly too busy. It was interesting to read the various comments on this. Just to give my perspective. I thought that the trio did OK . Keith I felt, didn't perform the ...
