      Oh Phil, sorry to hear it! Well, I would be more sorry if I actually dide hear it, but you know what I mean. Too bad ya can't sing. Its a huge part of my life.

      Adam, thanks for the compliment. I'm a big fan of his too.

      I don't know how technical you get with your playing. I am pretty laid back about how I play songs, because I'm not really good enough to get every note perfect. So I don't ever figure out my own tabs, its too slow a process for me. So if you are looking for a good Iron and Wine tab site, this guy has almost all of of my favorite songs (just missing Love and Some Verses, which I get from Ultimate Guitar.com). Anyhow, this guys site is by far my favorite place for Iron and wine, because It always sounds like he really trys to find the right chords, and he puts up some picking hints too if you want them.

      Hope that helps with Cinder and Smoke, its one of my favorites to play! Its just beautiful,

        Hi Chris:
        Good work on the guitar! Not to mention good work in sketchup and ruby!!!
        Is that a Takamine in the videos? Looks great.

          Your guitar gently sleeps ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜Ž

          Ps It's me or there are some French words inside the first song? โ˜€
          I know that you sing the "original text" from A cover of Belle, by Jack Johnson for the rhythm but right French text should be
          "Je ne comprends pas le franรงais" ๐Ÿ˜‰

            Oh I still do sing...but the pain/pleasure is reserved for my family to hear....I actually wrote the lyrics to a song and my son composed the piano portion. We performed it at one of his piano composition recitals. It's called "Way up Yonder"

            It starts out like this:

            Way up yonder
            in the Blue Blue Sky
            We all wonder
            We Wonder why
            why oh why
            can't penguins fly
            way up yonder
            in the blue blue sky.

            Then it repeats:

            Way up yonder
            in the Blue Blue Sky
            We all wonder
            We Wonder why
            why oh why
            does time go by
            way up yonder
            in the blue blue sky.

            I forget the rest of the lyrics now but it was quite fun to perform with my son wh is 7 years old.

              Post the video...there must be one somewhere. You know how parents are with video cameras at these events.

                from an impromptu jam session with Michael Franti (Spearhead) and Bob Burnquist (skateboarder)... that's me playing the other guitar (solos and accents)..

                  Wow, thats awesome Jeff!

                  I sit here wondering how does one find himself in an "impromptu jam seession" with Michael Franti and Bob Burnquist???

                  Very cool.

                  And solo and accent guitar - that is the thing I am worst at when it comes to guitar playing. I have not figured that stuff out. Good for you, well done and thanks for posting it!

                    Bob has a bunch of ramps at his house that i've built over the years (designed with SU ๐Ÿ˜„).. he's friends with all sorts of interesting people and we usually ending up doing something musical in the evenings when i'm out there..

                      That's awesome Jeff. I can't believe you got to jam with Michael Franti. I have his "Songs from the Front Porch" CD in my truck right now. I also tell everyone to check out the documentary he made - http://www.iknowimnotalone.com/
