Well, in the previous Question thread, we all agreed that we were a bunch of older guys and gals who could finally afford a nice guitar and actually have time to play it BUT what are you guys/gals playing these days? Mind sharing your favorite 2 or 3 songs that you regularly like to play?

1. These Days - Jackson Browne (Sing and play) 2. Catch and Release - Pete Huttlinger 3. Georgia on my Mind - arr Rick Ruskin. 4. Hey Jude, Imagine - my own arrangements.
Note that your description of "playing" and my definition might be totally different. I can kinda-sorta-maybe make these sound close to the orginals: 1. Old Man--Neil Young 2. Wish You Were Here--Pink FLoyd 3. Needle and the Damage Done--Neil(still very rough. Mostly I love to noodle and make up melodies out of the few chords I know!
Penny Lane, Lennon/McCarney. Someday After a While, Freddy King. Don't Think Twice, It's All Right, Dylan. Ain't Misbehavin', Fats Waller. In My Life, Lennon/McCarney. Georgia On My Mind, Hoagie Carmichael. Night and Day, Cole Porter. I Am a Pilgrim, traditional. It's a really, really long list because I've been playing for a really, really long time. I left off my own songs since only a few thousand people have ever heard them. Jeez, I left off Hank and Chuck Berry and Billie Holiday and the Who......thank God for music is all I can say.
So Who (pardon the pun) here would pay money to see Sonoman play "Summertime Blues", including some Pete Townsend windmill moves? No windmilling allowed on the Alien OM though
