This is an original song and video I just finished. Wasn't sure if this was the right place to post this or not since PG has the new forum. I didn't use any of PG Music products on this so I didn't think I should post it there. So I hope it's OK to post here. Have a look/listen if you get a chance. Any comments are welcome. Thanks.

Looking for some comfort

Man, your stuff always puts the big grin on mah face.

From Speed of Lite thru Enola Gay as a featured guest, I digs me some Charlie McG songwritin' I do.

An' that quickshot of Willie about cracked me up, man.

That Texas humor coupled with a twist that only you could bring to the thing.

Those hits just keep on comin'...

Mac, thanks a lot. That means a lot to me. Yes, Willie is pushing 80 and he's still going. Hope I can last that long. As far as the songs I wish someone would record one and help supplement my retirement.

Great stuff Charlie, really enjoyable! You're keeping the anarchic spirit of Frank Zappa alive! Love it.

Charlie,

That was a hoot! Great song and video. Your use of the vid "snipetts" really adds to the video too.

Keep it up.

Charlie,

This is amazing! Reminds me of the Talking Heads but MUCH funnier.

Always nice to see Willie too. ;-)

Fantastic Charlie! Very entertaining from start to finish. I can't imagine the amount of work that must go into your vids but they're everyone a hit as far as I'm concerned. Keep up the good work.

Bob, lkmuller, Kent, Danny, Don, Rob and Jim, thanks so much for watching and for your comments. Glad you liked it. It's not so much work, it's what to do. The old creativeness is not as fast as it used to be, at all.

excellent Charlie, as usual. Your creativity gene is still extremely active.
I had to do a video the other week as a showcase and in comparison mine is.... well doesn't even start to register on the scale of 1 to 10 when yours is 10/10

I await the full length feature

Charlie,

It's not possible to stay in lurk mode after watching your video! You are such a talented guy, I'm totally envious of your many creative abilities! Keep up the good work! I hope more of us are inspired to take our musical creations to the next level by adding video.

Thanks again for showing us what's possible. Do you know if there's a forum anywhere for people who are interested in making music videos?

Hey Charlie,
Too cool, I loved it as usual and stuck around to play a few more again.
Everytime I hear you I think, Why can't I sing like that?
To me you got that ZZ Top thang' goin' on.
I dig it the most.
Wayne, (still humming, "I Want To Touch Ya")

Gibson, thanks a lot, as always, for your great comments. Glad you liked the video.

Pat, thanks so much for watching and for your extremely, flattering comments. I'm not aware of a video forum like you mention.

Wayne, being compared to ZZ Top, you put me in great company. Thanks for the comparison and your comments.

Hey, John. I'm too old to have very much energy. Thanks for watching and for your comments.

As Bobcflatpicker said, "it was a HOOT."

And as Pat Marr said, "not possible to stay in lurk mode . . "

Thanks for the fun Charlie.
