Thanks RHarv. I think this is first time I've heard from you in the User forum. There are a few guys who are heavyweight contributors. I've been a member only since the beginning of the year and have already found out about you, Mac and Matt Finley. But I never see them post any performances. I've heard you guys are all powerhouse musicians, so ... ?

I've been a member only since the beginning of the year and have already found out about you, Mac and Matt Finley. But I never see them post any performances. I've heard you guys are all powerhouse musicians, so ... In my case, don't believe everything you hear  I have plenty of songs posted on the forum, dating back many years. Go here - http://www.pgmusic.com/user-showcase/?genre=jazz CTRL+F and search for rharv on the Rock, Jazz or Realtracks tabs. I ain't saying they are my best work, but it ain't hard to find. Neither is the work of others you mention. Mac & Matt have earned my respect, FWIW. I am not in Mac or Matt's class as far as performance. Doesn't matter which weapon; piano, trumpet, guitar .. I'd be gettin' schooled.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
Make your sound your own!

I like the song (and Pat's anagram!) Uber cool tune and stellar playing. Ditto on the brass.
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Incidentally, what's your advice on a new stage name: Neal Drack? I don't know ... it suggests Dracula, who I always thought was a pretty cool dude.
Dean off the top of my head, here are a few genre-based anagrams: When writing Cajun Country music, you could call yourself: Rad La Neck When writing hunting songs, you could be: Canard Elk When writing songs for hopeless geeks: Alack Nerd If you ever write about a tattoo that got infected: Decal Rank If you write a song about the undercover police who infiltrate brothels to catch pushers Laced Nark Who would write a tongue in cheek techno song? Dance Lark a song about a tall welder? Arced Lank a song about somebody who cheats at poker: Card Ankle a song about a kid with venereal disease: Canker Lad a song about a country where nothing ever gets oiled: Creak Land a song about the black Knight Lance Dark a song about a dishonest used car salesman Crank Deal song about the first hunter-gatherers: Clan Raked a song about words that will get you beat up if you say them in a biker bar A Lard Neck a song about Barbie's version of MasterCard Card La Ken three of Barbie's accessories Car Lad Ken A song about young 'uns trying to get served alcohol at the club Card An Elk a song about sour French milk Lac Dank Re a song about things hunters value Car And Elk somebody... please... shoot... me... ;-(

Thank you Janice and Bud. Pat's list is a scream but I do believe that boy should return to Earth pronto.
