I seem to be playing Hank William's I saw the light alot. I think I'm going to stay in the Bluegrass / Country world for a while.

Any time Designzilla's around, Soulshine works well, 'cause he does a smokin' solo.

I'm leading worship Sunday AM on the 30th, and I'm considering doing a soulful "Jesus Loves Me" maybe with a cut capo.

Same here. Being as ALL my guitars are Ovations, all my favorite songs get played on them.

As of late, I've been playing a lot of the Rubber Soul stuff, and earlier Beatle songs. The necks on O's just lend to expressing more melody and rhythm. When I play my 1613 Classical, I play Latin style.

Finally added some more music that I can do on the classical O. I am right in love with two songs from Sting I finally have loosened up enough with to sing and play.

SOS & Shape of my Heart. I actually have nothing else that is complete for the nylon strings.

The rest of my sets are all done on an Adamas. Solsbury Hill is another new one for me so because it is still new to me I love hearing it and playing it.

This time of year, they're all really nice, particularly the contemporary, upbeat, non-secular arrangements for small vocal ensembles. Some stuff by Curry is on the music stand at the moment.

I love to do the faster up beat songs or the real soft ones...does that make sense? my guitar can take a beating with the hard strumming and sound great and when I play softly late at night it seems to shine there to.

Yup, played that. And Stairway to Heaven. One of the daughters arrived with a herd of teenage kids, many of whom play guitar somewhat. The daughter begged me to play something for her friends. One kid asked, "Dude, you into classic rock? Like Poison and Motley Crue?". So I started with Deep Purple and worked my way to Zep. It was worth a few laughs anyway.
