Hive Open Mic 122, here we are!
Firstly, I would just like to say that I am honoured to have been selected to choose this weeks theme! I chose this theme as, to me, music is so emotional. Whatever mood I am in, music is a major enhancer! I also love playing the blues, especiall Gary Moore songs, so for this week I play my favourite song! Parisienne Walkways!
Do you know this song? Well, here I am playing all 3 solos from this awesome tune! I really am feeling it here - true emotion! This song means a lot to me in many ways. It brings me back to a time 20 years ago when my Dad showed me this song for the first time and my life changed there and then!
If you want to hear some unbelieveable guitar playing, just search 'Gary Moore Parisienne Walkways Live' and you will hear the master at work! Sadly, he died over 10 years ago now - but he lives on through his fans!
Here is a little bit 'Moore' about me. I've been playing guitar for over 15 years, but I did have a long break in between where I would only pick it up for 10 mins a week for a quik strum. However, the past 3 years I have been fully back into it - the fire is lit! I feel like my calling has alway been to be a musician, but I strayed from the path. However, I am back on track! I have released my solo album in July! 9 tracks, and all me! If anyone wants to have a listen, just let me know! Or, search 'CHOEY G' and you will find my music. I'd also like to say a massive THANK YOU to those of you who have had a listen and given me some feedback! I appreciate it so much, and am also here to support and encourage you!
I have seen so many amazing open mic entries so far and I have been loving them all! I am getting tagged in so many videos this week haha which is so awesome! I love it! I am doing my best to watch them all and comment. Love these open mics so much!
Leave me a comment and I'll be sure to check yours out!
Again, I am so grateful to have featured on this weeks open mic and to have chosen the theme! Blessed! I love this platform and community. It feels like we can finally get some recognition for all of our hard work and share the love! It is great!
Peace and love to you all!
