This is a song written by a buddy of mine, named David Reding. We grew up together (though he often says I never grew up.) He's a bass player in a rock band here in San Antonio. So naturally, he wrote a country song. I helped him record it, and did all the background vocals, and mixing, etc. David sang the lead vocal. All of the instrumentation is Realtracks and Realdrums.

Remember, this is an old-fashioned, George Jones style country song, so it is pretty depressing. And no, my friend is not suicidal (although he is a little crazy.) We hope you enjoy it!

The song is good, but your post is better, and here's why.

I sent a CD of my 10 song CD demos to a friend in Oklahoma. Now we are great long time friends (I just wish she never left Ohio) and we love each other to where she can't really be objective so I asked her to pass the CD around her workplace and such and get some feedback. So far 8 people have listened to it and the biggest complaint is that the slow songs are so depressing they all cried when they listened to them (one of them is male!!).

And for country music, that is EXACTLY what I was hoping for!!! LOL!!!


I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

Just needs a little intro Cuz and a Steel Guitar bridge . I have a cd with some steel lick loops on it and one that I made from Texas Steel Guitar hall of fame player Billy Braddy . I was a sound man for him on a weekly show for 2 years till he died. When his friend told me he was dying of cancer it was only a few weeks left and I recorded only him instead of the band. I told his wife about the recordings and she gave me permission to use them if I gave credit that Billy was playing . I'll mail them to you if ya want Cuz .

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
