Hi Charlie McG, I really liked this song - had me bouncing along with it - Very good, in fact superb  I took a listen to your other song (Money) and it is in the same ballpark. Well done. Best regards michee

Hi Charlie, Very enjoyable. Had me laughing and toe-tapping which means it's entertaining, and that's the name of the game in my book. I'm starting to get into mixing a little, and I've just spent most of the day on mixing one song, so I can imagine the work you've put into making that video. :>) Made my evening, keep'um coming. Later Jim
I'd be completely happy if I had just one more guitar.

Mario, thanks a lot for your feedback. Glad you liked it. Loved your review.
Jim, thanks for listening. I'm glad you liked it. You're right, a lot of time went into the editing the video. I probably put as much time with the mix/master of the song as well. But computers are wonderful, aren't they? What a toy or another instrument we have.

Thanks a lot, Mick for the listen and your comments. SCMTV sounds like a good idea. But I felt as young as anyone while doing the video. It's hard to realize I'm doing all of this at my age. :-)

totally catchy and fun! Excellent job all around! Very creative!
What software did you use for creating the video?
Was that a BIAB creation?

Charlie.... This is all just brilliant! I bet you didn't even have a crew (except for you lover / murderess). Did you use BB/RB at all? And I need to know where you buy your blueberries.

Pat, thanks for listening. I used a Sony HDR-CX100 camcorder and Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9.0 for the video. The software is great and it's not that expensive compared to Sony Vegas Pro. I didn't use BIAB this time. Normally I use it at some point. I used FL Studio 9 and Adobe Audition for the audio.
Trax, good to hear from you and thanks for the listen and comments. Yes, I'm still around. Old musicians never die they just get further and further out of tune. And I'm going to check out your youtube stuff, ASAP.
Brad, thanks for your comments. Always good to hear. I didn't use BIAB/RB this time (see above). Oh, I get my blueberries at Walmart (frozen).
Mike, I am glad you liked it. Love to hear what you're saying. I'm glad it came across as funny. That's what I was shooting for on such a serious subject.
Manning1, thanks a lot. Yes, I really put a lot of time on the song as well as the video.
Powderman, thanks a lot and please pass along as much as you like. All listens/views are greatly appreciated.
Mel, thanks a lot. We have the same last name although I spell mine different.
Danny, thanks a lot. Always good to hear from you.
Dave, I'm glad you liked it. I was hoping to get a professional sounding song as well as a nice video and be funny too. Thanks to my daughter for being the murderess/love interest. Her friend for being the cop and my younger sister for singing the girl's part.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
