@Richard: Guilty as charged. But what happens on AloneTone stays on AloneTone. We're glad you are here!
@Sis: All of my beats are grabbable. That's what they're here for... I'm happy to steal a pumpkin for you any time. My patterns are alot like pumpkins: you don't have to ask - just grab one and run.
I thought you guys may be ready for a straight forward 4/4 pattern to play with instead another of my rhythmically esoteric patterns.

A lesser woman would conspire to kidnap you and make you play for her. Love the natural sounding beats you create and your sense of rhythm is nothing short of spectacular.
(PLEASE NOTE: If Norm should go missing with his drums and, say, any pots he may have to hand, I am not guilty.)
Guitar/Vocals: Liam Sanders
Percussion: Norm
A song I wrote about feeling undervalued, with percussion from the wonderful Norm.
Lyrics:
I should be more than a Sunday afternoon watching awful films.
I should be more than the shirt you…
No doubt you have heard parts of this before.
Guys - if I could play like this I would not be making a living as a chemist! This is a midi file I ran through pianoteq - I put this together in an hour this morning and I wanted to share before…
I couldn't talk for a while afterwards and I felt like a moron after listening to my vocals, but it had to be done :) So no laffin'!
Our attempt to be on the roof of Abbey Road Studios if only for a moment!
The Lineup:
Guitars: gtalfsen
Piano…
I had some fun this afternoon with a bluesy tune - and ran out of time for singing and my vocals are not good - wanna try?
I need to remember to tune my guitars down when I want to sing - that would make my life easier.
The guitar, bass and trap-set are working well together on this. I like it! If that's not enough to make her stay, you are better off without her.
Didn't I already add percussion to this? Yep - that's definately my head banging against the wall in the back-ground.
drip by drip..
I did the guitar and bass tracks first, then procured my 10 year olds cello for the main bass line :) I also tried my luck playing cello with a bow on this track- which was a new experience.
The trumpet and violin bits are played…
The emerald green essence turns to the color of a Monarch’s chrysalis and the dripping sugar swirls into a gentle cloud. As your guitar carries me away, I smile and turn to the nonchalant fairy sitting next to me, who hands me a rather large bottle rocket.
Found this track from 1998 - I'm on a Time kick I guess...
Time waits for no one
We are all adrift
Finding ourselves in space
All Lost
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Time waits for no…
Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…

I wonder how many days a month they would let me get away with going in there and jamming for awhile? "Hey! Would you guys mind holding off on the over-head customer service announcements? I'm recording here!!"
Brilliant!
I'm usually asked to leave Sam Ashe after a couple hours of playing on all of their cool percussion toys. Surprisingly, some folks don't have an appreciation for extended drum solos... and some might even be inclined to give you a nasty look if you just laugh when they ask you to stop. Note to self: save the gong trials for the last.

Comments made by Norm
I like the drum work that you have added to this. "We speak in different time signatures" = brilliant!
I have adored this song since I first heard it over a year ago. It's great to have you on Alonetone, Liam!
Listened to the entire thing this morning. Wonderful! Production comments?
Rocks! I'd love to see you guys live. How do I get tickets?
Your harmonies are always amazing! Thanks!
I still adore this.

Thanks for loading my cabinets up with such tasty awesomeness!
Yep, Byrne-ish indeed!
Awesome! Your mom must be proud!

Are you playing the dig on this one by any chance?

Yes! One of your best yet. Awesome is the correct word.
Ha! This is just what I had in mind for this pattern... and delivered most excellently by a real life surfer: perfect!
Sweeeet!
whoops! Forgot to log in for that last comment...
Hey, isn't that George Burns?
