It has been awhile since I've been here and I dare say, it seems there have been enough changes here that I'm not sure I know my way around.  Is there a resource on here that explains some of the recent changes?

Going through a phase--maybe just saying this will break it, I don't know...I'm not in much of critique mood lately.  I'm in more of a "breathe it in, enjoy, don't squash the moment, absorb, relax, laugh, don't over-think it mood", so my apologies to any who don't get much of a critique from me.  I'm sure I'll be back to critiquing soon enough

Gah! Meant to wish you Happy Birthday yesterday, but I’m late.  Happy Birthday!

@Sreyashi Mukherjee, to post a public update, go to account, profile, scroll down to the heading “activity”. There should be a box directly under it (which is what I’m typing in now) that says (memory bad) something about “public”.  

If if you don’t have that box, then I’d check with the admin. It must be a glitch.

Merry Christmas!!!!

Snow day....yippee!!  I love unrushed mornings!

Not sure I'll have Wi-fi tomorrow or for a few days.  If you don't hear from me that's why, but I'll be back!

I had my first ever worship team music workshop ever last Saturday.  Our pastor brought in a friend of his from college whom he says knows everything there is to know about anything to do with music. Sooooo....I was pretty excited about that.  Anyhoo....He took us into the sound room at the back for the sanctuary and explained the sound board to us.  Now I have an idea what "panning" is and what gain, headroom, impedance, and linear are.  I've got to make some connections from forum discussions here though to keep it in my head and not forget, but actually SEEING the equipment and having him explain from the get-go how sound travels through the soundboard as his finger traveled along the soundboard to he where adjusts the gain and the headroom helps me.   He also explained how the top buttons were like the pressure behind a fire hose and the sliding things on the bottom were like the faucet inside the house (I hope I didn't flip that around) I'm hoping I'll get to sit with some of the people who run it on Sundays when I'm not singing and learn how to operate this thing--hoping...not sure yet. It would help my understanding a lot.  I'm kind of a hands-on learner.  Anyway.  THAT is a big event in my quiet little corner.

Welcome to SongStuff Max!

A shout out to all our Veterans on here.  Thank you for serving to secure the freedoms we enjoy today.  I pray you receive whatever medical care and family support your service for us necessitated in timely fashion and whatever benefits you were promised at the time you enlisted be fulfilled.  I pray that you and your families be strengthened, supported and appreciated and that your time together be filled with all that you missed out on during your time serving.

Sunshine, crisp October air, best apples of the year, jeans and sweater weather--doesn't get much better than this!

I have taken an unintended break from all things songwriting. Life has just stepped up the pace a bit since school started.  This is a busy time of year for me--working, sports, school events and other.  I hope to get back to critiquing and submitting new songs once routine finds its placement.  Also, haven't forgotten "the project", just trying to wrap my brain around how to go about it.  Looking for that happy place where my environment is settled and I can hunker down for a good chunk of thinking time--the best products come with that thinking time.  My apologies for those lyrics and songs I may have missed out on.  Hopefully, there will be time in the future where I can play catch up!

I'm trying this thing!

Hi Undersnow   Welcome to Songstuff!  I only know about you from reading another newbie's intro, so thought I'd swing by and welcome you here!  So much to see here when you're new.  Hopefully, I'll see you in the fourms!

I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Weekend.  Thank you to our servicemen whose aim it is to protect this country and our freedoms.  

It may be that I'm on my iPod that it doesn't show up. I seem to get more on the computer, but when I searched the artwork that's usually on the site to show my daughter, I could find it.  Has it been removed or is it moved?  I tried looking under images and videos, but couldn't find it.

Hey Richard, I did type "Home" in the search bar above and nothing came up.  Can you link me to that song so I can listen?

Hi David, I was just checking out the lyrics you mentioned you wanted suggestions on from Nov. 16.  There didn't seem to be any place to reply to them on that forum, so that's why I'm here.  I was wondering what your envisioned tempo and genre were for this song.  What I might suggest (because you asked, not because I see issues at all with what you have), is this:  I think it would be pretty cool to use "Rendezvous" as the name of a place, a town or city.  You might have to tweek one of your verses a bit to get the idea of it, but your chorus set-up works for both "ideas" if you wanted to jump from the idea of a meeting in one verse to a city/town/place in another.  Just an idea.  

Hi SavieShea, and welcome.
