I listened to the new Randy Houser record a couple of weeks ago (it's quite good). I only WISH that I could sing THAT Country!! I'll take "confident and genuine" any day of the week! I can't tell if you are selling yourself short; or just being humble. I can tell you I likes what I hears. [quote]I readily see your point about using "jazz" instead of "rock'n'roll". I "fits" the perceived scenario (to the logical mind). However... this verse was written as a comparison/juxtaposition of my wife and I - and every part of it is "real life". She hates jazz. She loved 70's Rock - BTO was a favorite - though she could not names bands - she just knows the songs when they come on the radio (and returns to her wild-college-days). Ok, I didn't have that information. lol However, I totally understand. When I was reading the lyrics I had two thoughts about this specifically (aside from a possible suggestion) 1-I haven't known you to struggle with what you are trying to say. If it's there; it's meant to be there. 2-I very much wondered if it was your life experience. I have a friend, who is a married wife of two young boys. She very much enjoys the finer things in life. "Great" shoes, wine, and food. The last meal they prepared was seven courses; and I couldn't pronounce any of it. She is not stuffy. Just cultured. Oh...and she plays bass in a rock band! So, I promise I get it. [quote]I would argue that "french wine" goes with "russian novels" in a way that "italian pasta" does not (and as you implied, I doubt I would ever use "Italian" to modify "pasta). No argument there at all. I was throwing out an idea. I personally haven't known anyway to snuggle up by the fire with a great book, and a bowl of fettuccine Alfredo. It's too heavy. Everyone knows with Russian novels, you go with a red sauce. Seriously though, I did get the imagery and felt it was very accurate. What I was trying to avoid was the double use of the word "soul." The second as a type of music. I'm on board with what you have for sure. Although I started with "french wine" and later used "vive la difference" it was not to make "her" seem THAT French - which adding the merlot (or Bordeaux) does (for me). Needless to say, the point was "we are completely different". (She does love french wine and she does use those phrases she learned in high school french class - to this day...) At least she's using something from HS French class. I also took French but only remember how to say things sporadically. One phrase I do remember is "où est la corbeille?" It sounds beautiful when said; but has been fairly useless so far for me in life. lol All of this is, of course, subjective. But it was fun to "argue the point"! Thanks for the chance to do that!! I'm laughing thinking; well...neither of us are not one for trends apparently. Aren't we supposed to be offended? You would think at least one of use could have pulled that off. Thank you for sharing a bit more about where the song emerged from. I love hearing the story behind the story.

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

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."
