Check out this bluegrass take on one weird aspect of the pandemic.

Except for some woodblock hits and the vocals, it's all from BIAB using the _BGMEDLY style. This style provides the solos, too. I used Reaper for some EQ and compression.

Have fun,

Hahaha. Sam, that's a great take on these times. One of the big pluses from working at home.

Funny tune!! I'm always one for being comfortable, and since I'm retired, I don't wear anything I don't want to.....not sure I've put on shoes in a year! Enjoyed! Take care. Greg

Very clever! I'm like Greg retired and wearing what I want when I want.

Your vocal was very strong and your backing tracks were exceptional. A funny Hard Pants bluegrass song, loved it!

I had to look Hard Pants up. I had no idea...well, there ya go.
I've been retired for a couple of years and, just like the last 40 or so years of work, each morning I put on a pair of jeans and a collared shirt - usually button down.
The song was funny, the vocal is really strong and, perhaps, a little loud for such a solid performance.
Good & fun.

Very funny tune. Perfect timing. I can relate totally to this tune. I have to be carefully doing web conferences and having the camera activated. Well done

Very funny and well done. Never heard the phrase 'hard pants,' I think khakis are pretty comfortable. Nice to hear some bluegrass on the forum, great RTs you used. Excellent vocal, too.
