This is what I sounded like before I started playing the fiddle. There are only a handful of photographs of me in existence, I've always been very camera shy, but if you don't blink you'll see me at the 1:10 mark for about 1 second. This was from a trip a friend of mine and I took to ride the Tail of the Dragon (or more properly Deals Gap -- 318 sharp curves in 11 miles) and this is us riding back to the motorcycle campgrounds along the Cherohala Skyway. I did this soundtrack, which is a cover of Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower" for the very substandard video taken by my helmet cam. I'm electric guitar and vocals.

Nice one Uzi, thumbs-up like the guitar ! 1st-place

Friend of mine and I did a similar thing on a local country road - but we ducked-out of performing music, did it the easy way, and just mixed it with Lynyrd Skynyrd "Free Bird"

I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh -

Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)

Thanks for sharing that.

Coincidentally, one of the Lynryd Skynrd band members, Steve Gains, was a very close friend of mine. Unfortunately, both he and his sister were on the plane.
