TGF Do Something Challenge Season 8 Week 2

A little tidbit:


#cover-song, #hot-noodle
I'm tagging it with both cover and noodle because I got this quite some time ago from some Youtube video, from some Youtuber, demoing some peace of gear. I thought it was great, learned it and it stuck with me.
 
8th time's a charm! Tried to listen to this on my phone 7 times... spinnywheel'ed every time. Try on my 'puter and voila - instant Whizziglory! Great job Whizz!
Something's up with Audius..

Status bar does not work when I play the files.

:unsure:

I was having trouble with that as well. I had some that wouldn't even load and had to refresh the page here and keep trying them. At least one never loaded. I have more trouble with Audius than any other audio sharing site.
 
Came up with the main riff today and tried to throw some stuff around it. This needs finishing, but in the event I abandon it I'm turning in my homework now.



#original-song


I can smell rubber burning. :clint

I bought a 1970 Camaro after my Junior Year in High School. I used to put a PA Column Speaker
in the backseat and connect it to my tape deck. :chef

Good times! :banana
 
OK, this #original-song has some back story so here goes. A friend (her name is Lola, hence the name of the song, look at the artwork and listen to the song and you will get it) on another forum likes to busk in the summertime in her local town. For 2025, she had decided that she is going to basically do a AC/DC tribute for her busking (using backing tracks, etc.). She sent me some lyrics that somebody else wrote as a AC/DC tribute and asked if I would write her something along the same thought line, a tribute to the band. I agreed to do so, but I certainly did not want to do a take off on what she had passed on to me, so I decided to take an approach that I used some years ago for a tribute to Bob Dylan. That approach is, take their entire catalog and use the titles of their songs, to build a tribute song ;~)) So I have done this before, but this time it was with AC/DC rather than Bob Dylan. I did use the word "in" in the last line of the last verse to join 2 AC/DC song titles together for that line, and the chorus is all mine, but everything else (4 verses and the confounded bridge) is 100% AC/DC song titles. So anyways, here it is, Take 4 of "Lola". Still plenty of mistakes (especially my fumbling of the second stanza of first verse lyrics here in Take 4), but nothing could be more "Do Something Challenge" than this considering she asked me 2 days ago if I would do this, and this morning I wrote the lyrics, worked out the guitar parts, played and recorded it. Definitely an example of "Doing something" ;~)) Not sure if I will ever "officially" release this (with a better take of course), but it was fun to do!
