to Jo and Kevin: good shows
I like the Saturday morning time slot.. I think it will be even more fun as more forum people play on SJ.. especially if they pick a Saturday slot adjacent to somebody else.
It really is like a party of friends (to me at least)... its refreshing to chill with friends and a cup of coffee while other friends entertain.
I look forward to next Saturday morning...

I am going to be doing a set of songs that I think/suspect/know that Don will like on Saturday at noon Eastern Time.
Tune in and wish Don well!

...Have had to cancel due to bad dog bite on the hand. Will do the same show next week same time Ouch! Sorry to hear that. Get well soon (and buy some shark resistant diver gloves to wear around the house). I had to cancel because I didn't practice all week and it really shows when I play without practicing in the days ahead of the set. I don't have the "muscle memory" of playing these songs for many tears on end.

I don't have the "muscle memory" of playing these songs for many tears on end. Was that an intentional pun on the tears? It was a pity because I had prepared a set specially for Don. Anyway, I will do it next week

Josie, JosieC said she's going to repeat this afternoon. The start times were a bit scrambled causing me to tune in late so she's gonna repeat. New time is not posted yet but, hopefully, we won't have to miss a single note.
Having a plethora of Josies to love and the different time zones is a major mental hurdle for me but you are both worth the bit of confusion.
Some female artists to watch mature are Summer and Songbird. Two totally different approaches to a song but extremely talented. You watch for their schedule.
Thank you, precious little lady friend.

Sorry guys made SUCH a hash of the times.
I thought I had scheduled my normal time but got an email reminder and saw that I had mistakenly scheduled two hours earlier (dog bite on my hand must have gone to my brain!). So went on and said I would repeat at the normal time but then Don did arrive and I repeated what he had missed so didn't go on again later.
So...long story but I will schedule for next Saturday 11am eastern time, 10am Central time. (To confuse things further the clocks have moved).
Next week I will be doing requests from stuff that I have previously performed and then week after I will be launching my first album.
Hope to see you there

It worked out okay, in retrospect, Jo.
I loved your entire performance and you are exhibiting more confidence. Perhaps the regular busking at the farmers' market has helped a lot. You have always appeared confident, perhaps a better term would be "polished". You have a certain glow or radiance that endears you to your audience as well as to your friends.
I know that I speak for everyone here on PG Forums when I say that you are dearly loved m'lady. I feel very privileged when you call me "friend".
Looking forward with bridled anticipation to your next show, then later, to meeting/hearing/seeing "cuzzy". Just sad that we lack the technology to have you harmonize as you ladies once did.
Brainstorm; or thinking aloud allowed: What if you were to record "Cuzzy's" part along with your backing track then, when live, add your vox. Maybe not your entire show but at least some songs so that we could hear "Cuzzy!"
(I've been called "Full of it!")

Yes, John3, she had a bit of competition today when following Songbird, but I think that Songbird's voice begins to irritate quickly because she tends to sing slightly above her "sweet spot" and I've told her so, tactfully, of course.
It was akin to a good ear-wash when Josie came on. Totally relaxing, soothing, and refreshing.

Tune in and wish Don well! You spoil me spitless, m'lady! But, I absolutely love you for it. You have brought happiness, sunshine, and hope back into my life in your wake. Thank you, little one. How's your dog bite? I didn't notice any negative affect on your beautiful singing or playing today.

Hi Joanne,
Can you indicate South African time as well in future ..? I though WE are central time !!! That is very funny! Well we like to think we are the center of the universe but I think the Americans may have a different view... Point taken. Okay...so this Saturday the 23rd November I will do a set at 6 pm South African time, 11 am Eastern Time (USA), 10 am Central time (USA). I am going to be doing a bit of anything goes so if you have any requests from stuff that I have previously performed let me know. The week after I will be launching my new album. (I may do a couple of impromptu sets in the meantime)
You spoil me spitless, m'lady! But, I absolutely love you for it. You have brought happiness, sunshine, and hope back into my life in your wake. Thank you, little one.
How's your dog bite? I didn't notice any negative affect on your beautiful singing or playing today.
Absolute pleasure Don. Dog bite has healed nicely. Just left a lovely scar on my hand but then a scar always tells a story…. just popped in for a few minutes but had to say, JosieC, you sing beautifully and you seem to have mastered that StreetJelly thing completely! Great performance!!! J3 – thanks so much for tuning in and commenting. It was a bit of an impromptu thing. Hope to see you there again soon.

Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
