Sky King, funky tune! Those guitars sound GREAT, and that break is Neil Young-crazy. Your vocals are wild and you and...just perfect for the tune. Super mix and master. Don't know if you're really going to Alaska, but I'm really liking this song. If you go, I hope you can see Russia from your back porch, 'cause that would be SO cool. My sister lived there with her family for a few years. Her hubby would go back, but it would be without her. So...not happenin'

Hi, David. Funky and loud. David, Gotta ditto the other David's comment. Sounds like any one of several rock bands of the late 70s and early 80s. Nothing, to nitpick on this one. It's all good - with that bag of chips and a bag of pretzels, too! Welcome back! Alan

Always a great energy David. I wasn't on the forum much this summer because I needed to get some fresh air.

That guitar riff sounds awesome. Quite a gutsy rocker. I haven't visited Alaska but I would like to. Don't know if I would like to live there in the winter with all that darkness. Cool song.

Cool song .
I was wondering why you missed the meeting and now I know.
We took a family vacation to Alaska before the girls had graduated from school. That's a great place. I'd hate to be there in the winter though. More than 12 inches of snow at one time is something I don't want to deal with as well as temperature much below 25°f. I hear they get multiple feet of snow and temps below zero so...... Not for me. When we got off the cruise ship we ended up staying in Vancouver for 3 nights and explored the city around the historic hotel we stayed in.
We had a great time, met some great people, and saw things many people will never get a chance to see. Expensive trip but you only live once.

Oh, we loved our time in Alaska, and I love this song, David. Hey, if you're moving up there, you'll need your own float plane and a pickup with a huge tank for trips to town for more water. Ironic, huh?
Dang, I like the way you write, and present these gems. No holds barred, and you definitely hold the listeners attention. I'll never tap out, you know. Hey, I won't ask the stupid question why, but you know BiaB still works up there, so keep 'em coming.

Good raw rock'n'roll
Appropriate chaos in guitars and vocal.

North to Alaska - up north the rush is on. In this instance the rush courtesy of the wild man with guitars. That chaos section of guitars is FUN.
Cheers

Wild - but for someone going up into the wilderness, it's quite appropriate.
Love the roughness of your voice, you can be quite a rocker when you need to be.
Enjoyed my listen a lot!

A really cool song in a really cool setting (too cool for my old bones!).
Very well put together and it packs a lot of punch.

Very cool rocking riff and rolling rhythm. The guitars sound great and the mix is tight. True stadion rocker.
Your voice just gets better, you are really stetching your vocal cords to extreme, Mr. Jagger Snyder!
But please don't move to Alaska, the world needs your music and your attitude!
