So I had this song, not quite finished, I sort of insisted Greg Connor sing it, he also wrote the last verse. Steve Krell added the solo break. I think they helped to bring the song alive. Oh yeah, I'm in the Chorus ...... hiding Somewhere. :) :)

Like it! Love those chords.

So here is my imaginary solution to a northern cold ass winter
If you don't get it that's not unusual
Here is the latest song challenge offered by the Minnesota Asscociation of Songwriters:

Your mission this month is twofold:
1. Try creating a boundary between the production of content versus the judging…
Sometimes life tends to repeat itself if you're not careful.... Good to find a moment to recognize old patterns and shake them off.
Great help on this one from the MN Coffee Table Gang - Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, and Mark Lofgren…
A friend got me excited about writing short instrumentals for Video, TV etc and posting them on Pond5 ( A site catering to that type of thing). I recorded this little banjo piece this morning.
I C see it all Em happen on the F evening C news
Am Someone G started C something G
C Running for Em cover, F crying the C blues

It’s a foot tapping morning already and I’ve only been awake 10mins ... ooh yeah!!
Woah... this is mighty fine. Heading Somewhere... yeah...
Excellent songwriting
Great song Roger!
The summer of 2020 was a real challenge but we’all got creative
Strong emotions here. Captures our crazy COVID times perfectly
Great reflection of what we're all feeling. It's been the summer of simple pleasures.
I love that 12 string sound!
Beautiful song. The pauses offer striking clarity.
The sparseness and the lyrics work terrifically to set the mood. Nice job.
A good old foot tapper and not naff at all
Nice one Roger. NOT naff at all!
Love this Roger! Such a happy feel.
Beautiful message and wonderful song! It’s been a great Summer my friend. Here is the summary: https://alonetone.com/MTBottles/tracks

Rita and I both enjoyed the video. We especially liked “the good wife” singing back up. I have to say the ending really got our attention.
Sounds like most of the evenings I have out or in .... liking the trippy vibe too
Love the feel of this one. Kinda trippy. It's got a Mamas and Papas vibe to it.
