well.. howdi!

Evening Guys.

Well.... I'm Lee.
I've registered on behalf of my father. He's a Singer / Songwriter.

Not the best quality voice... but it gets him by! He's written around 80+ songs in the last 200 years  Shocked

Without getting too personal (just yet) he split from his girlfriend.... who then burnt his Precious Guitars, Along with his song book!!  Angry Angry

He's took it on the chin, and slowly started written them again from memory.


So... This is where I come in!

I created him a blog style website. Added his songs & words. This way.... NO ONE can delete them. They will always be there! He was completely made up with this.

I recommended he joined a forum like this one... to get ideas, tips, feedback (good & bad!).  He's a technophobe! I'm sure once a few posts have been made, he'll take over the account!

His songs are recorded on his old PC using an old PC camera microphone! (Owch!). So excuse the quality!
I have set him up with Adobe Audition though - slowly record all his songs again to a much higher quality!

If you do want to see some lyrics / songs: www.rockmylife.info
Site is having stuff added to it everyday, so it will change in content Smiley


Thats all for now,

Lee

Hi Lee/ Lee's Dad Smiley

Thanks for taking the time to find and join our forum.  I'll pop over to your blog and take a listen later on.

Have a browse of some of the topics, and feel free to post up something for review if you like.

I'm in the middle of writing at the moment, so I may be posting up some reviews too in the near future (If I can finish the bloody things!)

Hi Lee,

Wow, it sounds like your dad has been through the wringer lately.  Sorry to hear that. As a songwriter it is these times of high emotions that often spur us to write some of our best stuff.  I will definitely check out the blog soon.
