PS: I watched the video and at the end it says in the copyright notice "Sept. 22, 2023". Do you guys have a time machine? Ha.... Anyway....I wanted to respond and thank you so much for catching my embarrassing oversight. I'm no Spielberg so it takes me forever to fix such minutia. New LINK for anyone that did view, or is totally bored :): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VT8dF0Xrid4Thanks to all who chimed in. Carry on....

Wayne and Ken, you guys are a great team. This is a great blues/rock tune, enjoyed it much. Great job!

A bit late to this game... so nothing original to add.
I'm a sucker for blues, and this is all well done - but the write is especially good.
Really nice!

Howdy Bass Thumper.... Yes...I feel fortunate in hooking up with Ken. I'd have many songs still languishing in a lonely 'Unfinished' folder without his contributions. We got acquainted on a guitar based website back in summer of 2018. (if interested https://www.tdpri.com/) Howdy Dave.... Ha....I'm frequently 'late to the game' too. That BIAB style fit the groove I was aiming for. This backup band of ours is a wonderful thing.  A sincere thanks to both of you for giving it a listen and the generous comments. Have a great day....

Chulaivet,
Great rockin’ blues tune with a stellar set of lyrics to go with. I think you and Ken have done a wonderful job on all aspects of this. Terrific work on this one!
My best to you both,
Deej

Howdy Deej.... We thank you for taking the time to stop by and give it a spin. And, for the very kind words. Having our back up band at our finger tips is wonderful thing. They don't drink my beer, are always on time and don't get offended if I switch styles.  Thanks again....

Hi Chulaivet and Ken,
Oh, I like that rhythm of the song very much! and of course everything else too, like those wonderful vocals singing those terrific lyrics! You both did a good job on that, I can tell you that!
I haven't heard a soft guitar, only an 'annoying' one, but that prefectly fits in the song, so annoying??? Every other compliment has been given by my collegues, so I can only subscribe them.
Great song, mr. Chulaivet! Hans

Hi Chullaivet, I was referring to Peter's story about the guitar. And I made a -kind of- joke about the sound of it. But the main story is that I liked your song very much! Hans Howdy Hans....

Revisit: Eyes on Success featuring PG Music Inc., Band-in-a-Box®, and the Updated JAWS Script
In the past, Eyes on Success featured an episode that discussed our company history and Band-in-a-Box® program with Tobin, our chief development officer, including how Band-in-a-Box® is even more accessible with the help of their JAWS screen reader scripts!
Later on this month, Eyes on Success will be releasing an episode that features Gudrun Brunot talking about her new tutorials about how to use Band-in-a-Box® with JAWS.
It's a great idea to pair the two episodes together!

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track

Review - Band-in-a-Box® 2023 for Windows is Overflowing with Features!
Dennis posted his very thorough Band-in-a-Box® review recently, where he dives into some of the new features added with version 2023: Sound-Guy's Band-in-a-Box Review
Read his thoughts on the Download & Install Manager, partial track regeneration, Playable RealTracks, Audio Editing, the addition of SynthMaster, the VST DAW Plugin, and more!
"Band-in-a-Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is, without negative connotation, a monster of a program. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. No DAW can do some of the things BIAB does, while BIAB can do a lot that DAWs do."
