#RPM Challenge 2013#
Oh it caught me by surprise
I Looked into your pretty eyes
Nothing more than a simple kiss
And a moment like this
We don’t need no fancy cars
Diamond Rings that shine like stars
You never really asked for more
Than moments…
I'm doing just Fine with Buck Erpestad. Check out Bucks music here:

Here is what Buck said he added:
"So I used the tremolophone (vibes) and tuba sounds in Garageband and played them on the keyboard."
"Hey Motorman" was written for the 100 year celebration of the Ariel Lift Bridge.
The bridge was originally built in 1907 with a gondola that went from side to side carrying passengers and vehicles. It was later replaced with a lift system.
One of my other hobbies is watching wildlife in the area. I'm the happiest with a pair of binoculars around my neck and my hiking boots laced up.
Rita and I took these photos over the last few days, near our home.

I would love to see one of those owls in the wild. Unfortunately, I'd have to go out where they are, and when it comes to winter I'm a great indoorsman ! My Mom would have loved this. She was an avid bird watcher and feeder. I learned a lot from my childhood excursions tagging along in the woods and fields.

Gorgeous birds ! Great pictures and video. You added a very nice music melody for the film. I got a kick out of the notification for you post. The site said you had posted something and it was "so hot" they didn't know the details yet. :=) c

As an old forester, wildlife man...I'd venture a guess this is a pretty young "flyer." Great sscenes, notice old insulator on wire near shed...and the banjo music is wonderful...just wonderful...best to the two of you...v.g.
Lets dig up an old one. In another time & space had to come up with a song with the line 'Solar Radiation and a New Pair of Boots' in it. I came up with this little ditty... Blame Steve Krell !!!!!!
I need an electric geeetar. My weary old Crafter electroacoustic picks up every touch. 'Scuse the solo, I'm only a strummer..
Anyway, the song. Clogging up my brain, had to get it out. Some lasses don't know what they look like, and some lads…
The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
I once worked for a retail company in the computer industry. One of my fellow buyers took a job at another company, then returned six months later as a salesman for that company. This is a song of how he might have felt returning to the city…
That guitar really caught me. I like the break into acoustic too.
Quote: *"I wrote this song some time ago with much more of a country feel to it. Thanks to the 12 step process I'm better now,"*
I feel your pain, I grew up with Country Music. After years of professional help, I'm almost healed.
Bottle neckin' on the old 5 string. first attempt Standing on a corner with a cheap guitar...Got that empty feeling I don't know where you are...Wont you come back baby I really need my car.. I let you have my car keys ,gave you a…

Cool! Was this at Cleary Lake or Murphy-Hanrehan? And aren't snow owls nocturnal? The banjo playing is OK, too.
Snowy nostalgia for my am coffee time on alonetone The owlet is dressed for Minnisota

You Are Sounding Good Fran! Yes I feel the 50/60's vibe too
I guess this one is my favorite too.
I think this one is my favorite!
Which hand do you hold the handkerchief with when you are playing the guitar? You can really build emotion into your lead playing.
Lady . . . You are bring a little class to the place! That's a fun song to listen to.
The ending made me laugh. Well done Rick!
This brings back memories! Ahhhh ... the good old days!
This is going to be a good one when it's done!
This song really reflects the optimism that I mentioned in your profile. Nice Job Rick!
It's a rough world out there. This song sums it up pretty good.
Great visual imagery. Good one Mark!
Nice feel to this one! Great Music / Great Lyrics & Singing
Way to get your groove on! Well sung Fran! I can tell Roger has his Leather Pants on. He sounds like a real Rocker!
I like the violins! That was a nice surprise. Lots of energy in here. Fun to listen to.

Terry . . . You got me laughing this morning! I love the inflection in your voice. It really put me into a spin!
You are on a roll.
I love that tuning. Way to think out of the box!
They may be trouble but we still chase them! I haven't caught one yet, but I still keep trying. Good song my friend.
I love it! Great driving bass line and ripping guitar lead. Just what I would expect from a Pub goer like yourself. *"Let's Go To The Pub"*
