Hello, steemians, and welcome to my blog, eh!

This is my first entry to the steemit open mic challenge.

So, I've been working on this song for a couple of weeks now, maybe more. I had this idea to write a parody song about MSP Waves radio because of all the craziness that goes on in the audience chat when a show is on. I started out with the words, and the words chose their own tune, a famous song that I know you'll recognize.

I recorded the guitar track onto my old reel to reel deck, and played the bass and sang to that track. Because I'm not really a guitar player, there are some timing inconsistencies that I just had to deal with when I did the video. I believe that the video recording that I ended up using was my 23rd try. This stuff ain't as easy as it looks, people! Especially when the timing on the guitar track is sketchy.
I had a good track on the 16th take, but the camera ran out of memory half way through the recording, not helpful.
I tried videoing it a couple times after the track that I ended up with, but by that time I was starting to make simple mistakes, so I used the one I had. It is what it is.

So, without further ado, here is the youtube link for the song, "Nuggetville"

I hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my post, eh!

As always, feel free to leave a comment or question if you would like.

May the steem nuggets ever be in your favor!
