  1. Wow! It is everything I wanted it to be. I've wanted to see it but hate going to the movies alone. I was watching to see if it would hit Netflix but my lack of patience got the best of me at Wal-mart... I bought the DVD (Is this old fashion now to buy a DVD?) Such a cool plot. Who thinks these things up?!!! A world with out The Beatles...brilliant plot! The actors were amazing and the singing was beautiful. @Gazebo he plays at Latitude! (I totally thought of you!!) Have any of you seen it yet? what did you think? (Try not be a movie spoiler...) If you haven't seen it... you need to! Make it a good day y'all! Lisa
  2. I can't wait to hear what you have. The pic is great. thanks for sharing. 🙂 L
  3. Ding a ling, I feel so christmasy... can I put this in here? it's what I'm listening to. And of course it is on repeat in my head!!! LOL

      You are such a groupie!
      Watch. Listen. Learn... and be inspired!

  6. It's about damn time! you've got talent! you know i know cause i tell you all the time. I'll help in anyway i can. the marketing of your music is key. don't recreate the wheel. there have been tests and you can learn from other's people's mistakes. Don't rush be patient. let's get a plan going and set up specific time structured releases. ok now i'm excited!!
  7. Aw Snap! even with nylon strings i can only practice 20 minutes before the imprints of the strings hurt my dang fingers. I'm working up to it though!! I'm just starting!🎸🎵🎸

      My feeling is that it's a coincidence - I'm guessing that they never heard the piece by Kapsberger.

      wouldn't matter - copyright for the lute piece is probably outa date!

    Sliver of A Moon

    Hi @Michan, I found him on a Facebook group. He and I messaged on fb then exchanged emails. I sent him three lyrics and he came up with a melody for this one. We worked on it for about a month via email. we had a written understanding of credits and now I'm waiting for the opportunity to pitch it. If you have melodies for most of your songs you just need someone to produce some music for it. I know there are many software packages that create music. You should look into that! Then you wouldn't have to pay someone to put music to it. It's not magic. Just be honest with yourself and your collaborator. The music business needs honest people! Lisa

    Hi Ken, we're not working on anything atm. I don't do rock lyrics much and his voice is perfect for rock. thanks! Lisa

    Sliver of A Moon

    John, I totally agree. How does he come up with such a cool guitar lic just from reading my lyrics?!! I don't know! but was so pleased! He actually has fixed the Silver mistake but I had already had 60 listens on my soundcloud so I didn'd upload the corrected one. maybe i should... L

    James, thanks! I love this kid out of Wales! I hope I can do something with this song to repay him. I saw you on Facebook and hope you visit Nashville sometime. Lisa
  13. I met my co-writer on Facebook. We've done two songs via the internet as I live in the States and he lives in Wales. I didn't have a good melody for my lyrics and he created this awesome guitar lick and sang it. Funny thing to note is that he sang the word silver instead of SLiver but you'll get the gist of the song. Her is SLiver of a moon hope you like it:

  15. Friday night is here! and i'm ready for bed...

    1. john

      Is that snoring I hear?

    2. Lisa Gates

      yes it was! zzzzzzzz

       

  16. Like Just1L, the lyrics kept coming to me. So I wrote them down, learned about structure, took a free songwriting course and found Songstuff. Now I have over 100 lyrics waiting for production. Some I have melodies for. Some I do not. I don't play an instrument (although I sing well) and I'm not great at recording on my computer... And finally the age old excuse of an artist is mine as well: I don't enough money to do what I want. I have started networking with like minded artists in hopes of collaboration and moving forward. Thanks for posting this! Lisa
  17. "Music to My Eyes" my new anthem. my life song...

      Aw, no....When you find it, put some blaze orange tape around it.  Someday, someone will invent a beeper to attach to those little devices!
