    Default Alone Again Tonight, and Missing You

    I friend of mine wrote the lyrics to a song and wanted music put to it, so I put some chords to it and recorded with my roommate singing since I can't. Thought I would share.

    "Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing."

    That was pretty good! I am no musician, but I believe that if you expand the band and get some studio time, that song would come out really great!

    Why yes it is, the backpacker model.

    YA, I got better recording stuff back home. We got kind of a weird distorted sound from the laptop camera. If I had my stuff from back home I would of edited in my mandolin and I wish I had a friend who could play the fiddle cause I think this song would sound great with one in there.

    And thanks to everybody else who commented!

    I thought it was. I bought my son one when he was backpacking all the time. It disappeared somewhere on the Appalachian Trail. You..uh....you've never been on the Appalachian Trail have you?

    That's weird, I happened to stumble upon this one on the Appalachian Trail. Tell him I said thanks....
