Registered: 08/25/03 Posts: 3076 Loc: wales gibson Veteran Registered: 08/25/03 Posts: 3076 Loc: wales	I've been in hospital recently and this is my thank you to all the nurses, the cleaner and the lad with the food!! Oh yeh and the Doctor Years back when a Dental student I used to co-write the Xmas reviews at college so I thought I would write one in that style! The stay wasn't such fun but the guy in the next bed and I had some laughs in the days before we were discharged. We were the least ill, thankfully. To everybody in Anglesey Ward, Morriston Hospital, Swansea, South Wales. They all did a wonderful job, thanks!! I never want to see that flipping place again Bed 9 well she said this wont hurt its only a scratch as she showed me the biggest needle I'd ever seen then she stuck it in my bum pushed the plunger with her thumb and I let out one almighty piercing scream she said c'mon don't be a baby as i cried out now look here dahling you ain't the kind of nurse living in my dreams they are sweet and nice not a devil with a device and your only intention is to make me scream she laughed till she cried tears running from her eyes as she tried to regain control of her breath then the guy in the next bed made me laugh with what he said and she said watch smarty pants you're next life can be a tonic when you're stuck away from home lying there with all those other guys you're in ward E bed 9 why is there always one guy that sleeps through the day and shouts and screams when you're trying to sleep and there's that lucky so and so who gets a bed bath every day and there's me over here thinking OI! wot about me oh no here come the visitors all with a bunch of grapes which they eat cos they cant think of a thing to say that old nosey neighbour your mates to have a laugh and your missus checking the insurance's is up to date life can be a tonic when you're stuck away from home lying there with all those other guys life can be a tonic with good nurses by your side you're in ward E bed 9 you're in ward E bed 9 RealTracks in song: 2351:Bass, Acoustic, RockabillyRockNRoll Ev 165 RealTracks in song: 2264:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm 80sBubblegumPop Ev 140 RealTracks in style: 525:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 190 RealTracks in style: 523:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 190 RealTracks in song: 900:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming FolkRockWaltz Ev 150 RealTracks in song: 1199:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm GypsyJazzFastJohn Sw 250 RealDrums in Song: JazzBebopDannyBrushes: a: Brushes, HiHatb: Brushes, Open HiHat enjoy Alyn _________________________ My showcase songs My story

I love your dark humour.. and as Guenter said, it's cool that you were able to turn a bad situation into a springboard for creativity! This is fun on so many levels, it's hard to know where to start! I like the uptempo beat and the clever lyrics... I'm sure the nurses and other at the hospital will get a real laugh out of this! I can imagine that this episode must have knocked the blocks out from under you, and you might not have felt like making music for a while... but I'm glad you got it back! Your songs bring something unique to the forum, and I always look forward to hearing your stuff!

I've thought about sending you a PM a few times but been distracted by my ridiculously crazy life. Nobody else has your brand of humor, and it's one of my favorite brands. This song is a kick! It has "Gibson" written all over it-funny, clever, and, as Pat said, a bit dark. Hope you're feeling well. Keep 'em coming!! Take care. Greg

And it is always a joy to go along for the ride... Sometimes painful, sometimes embarrassing, often hilarious, always with a twinkle in the eye... Totally enjoyable.

You've been greatly missed - the forum needs you to make us laugh at ourselves. "here come the visitors all with a bunch of grapes which they eat cos they can't think of a thing to say" Absolutely. I've done the visiting and been in just that position. Hope you stay well and keep posting. Cheers, ROG. _________________________ Free online guitar lessons. Cours de guitare gratuit en ligne.

It's really, really excellent to see you back in the forum I've missed your songwriting wit and humour a lot. No-one around here creates music like you do. I loved the journey of this song. And what a great hook! I don't know of any other song that has a hospital bed for a title. You have a amazing ability to caricature life in such an astounding way that it's simultaneously funny and poignant. That's quite a feat of accomplishment. Sending lots of good thoughts your way!

And as floyd said "No one documents their life in song better than you do. And it is always a joy to go along for the ride..." Win, lose or draw you are willing to write about it and in a way that never fails to entertain. Never over-wrought or maudlin yet beneath the humor there always seems to be a lot of depth to the lyrics. Glad to see you back, enjoyed the tune, and trust you are on the mend.

#TBT The Band-in-a-Box® 2010 "Plug-in" Mode!

Did you know... the "Plug-in" mode was first launched with the release of Band-in-a-Box® 2010 for Windows!

With the 2010 "Plug-in" mode, Band-in-a-Box® opened as a small always-on-top window, and acted as a plug-in for your favorite DAW/sequencer, so that you could Drag-and-drop MIDI and audio (WAV) tracks from Band-in-a-Box to your favorite sequencer. You could work in your favorite sequencer, type a progression in Band-in-a-Box, and then simply drag the track from Band-in-a-Box to your sequencer’s track at the desired track and bar location.

To learn more about the new features that were launched with Band-in-a-Box® 2010 for Windows, check out Band-in-a-Box® 2010 "Plug-in" mode feature highlighted in our Band-in-a-Box® 2010 New Features Video at 10:50!

The "Plug-in" mode development didn't stop there - With Band-in-a-Box® 2019 we introduced the "Band-in-a-Box® VST DAW Plugin" which now works DIRECTLY INSIDE YOUR DAW (Cakewalk, Reaper, Pro Tools, PreSonus, etc.). Learn more about this feature here.
