Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

I remember being in Sault Ste Marie on this day in 1997, and having a day off because the holiday. I got on a tourist train and went up to the Agawa River Canyon to take pictures. Beautiful place. I wandered so far away I almost missed the train going back. A bit of a train ride but as a city boy I had never ridden that kind of a train. I had done Amtrak for trips to Chicago but never an open windowed sightseeing train. Fortunately height doesn't bother me because some of those curves really showed the elevation. There was a woman in front of me who turned and commented about the view. I just said "Yeah. Especially down!"
The downside was that on our July 4th we had to work. I remember our singer putting on his guitar and breaking into Springsteen's 4th Of July, Asbury Park (also known as Sandy), which we did not play. I was able to quickly find the accordion patch to play Dan Federeci's part under the chorus. It was really quite a moment and some of the guys were teary eyed. When we were done I walked out front and gave him the "one armed bro hug". And we never played that song again.
Once on a night I was feeling playful (also in Canada) I played the intro to Desperado like 4 times every night for the whole week. On Saturday, the last night we played, when I did it, he went into the song fo' realz. Being musicians in a real improvisational sense of the word, we played the song, NAILING the harmonies in the chorus (Thank you Ensoniq for your "aaaahhhh" sample) and not a soul in that room knew we had never played that song before. I miss playing with people who can think on their feet at that level. The bass player came over after the set and said "Do you have a vocal sample I don't know about because I KNOW that wasn't just the 3 of us singing those chords." I just smiled. Good laugh on that one. And once again, we never played that song again.
So, to all you PG people that help keep the music flowing, Happy Canada Day, eh!!!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
