Bravo 👏 Darren! @Moonhare. Your music brought back memories of sailing rough waters on the Atlantic while crewing on large yachts back as a teenager. The intensity, fervor and then ebb of the wind and sea comes through.

To my “M&M” TAC friends, @Marisa and @Moonhare – appreciate your comments like always. I am working on one now for my wife on Valentine’s Day 😍

[Guitargeezer]

Excellent, perfect to meet your situation @Scott B.

[Guitargeezer]

Thank you @stevieblues for the acknowledgement and encouragement.

Appreciate @zeebow (Dzuy N’s) comment as well. Yes, having fun is the goal.

@Fletch, I am a long- time fan of the Moody Blues so this ballad reminds me of the musings and vocals of Ray Thomas in particular. Please accept it as a supreme compliment. 😉

[Guitargeezer]

That’s UNBELIEVABLE @Marty69! I thought I was doing well at 300. Wishing you many, many more!! Wonder if anyone else in TAC Land has more (other than Tony)?

[Guitargeezer]

@KevinZ – clearly music IS a friend of yours! Really awesome 😎

[Guitargeezer]

Gee, @jumpinjeff you’re spud 🥔 on!

[Guitargeezer]

I suspect, @Moonhare (Darren) you will play splendidly for your first VOM based on what I have witnessed you do on Play for Us. Expect to be nervous but also expect the jitters to vanish soon after you start playing. I found those involved in VOMs, like MG, are very kind and supportive. I’ve only done one so far but am looking forward to my next VOM.

Thanks so much for your remarks @Loraine – yes, I will try to get a wider view of my fingers in action next time. Got to start learning how to play standing up too. Just so you know, regarding this song, I was quickly transitioning the D chords (D / Dmaj7 / D6 / Dmaj7 / D) followed by ‘Em & A, then G A D to complete each verse. Fun song to play!

Someday I want to play Chapin’s “Thirty Thousand Pounds of Bananas” regarding a true yet tragic incident near Scranton, PA.

@Moonhare – I too am impressed by the Peterson Strobe. Not just great reviews by fellow TAC members but those on the Sweetwater site. Had a basic inexpensive Snark that stopped operating after about two months so I have used phone tuner app. Thanks to your posting I ordered the Peterson this week and told my wife it’s your fault! 🤓

[Guitargeezer]

Wonderful. Enjoy the long term experience @Stickmaker.

[Guitargeezer]

😲 Indeed @Moonhare. I just better not do anything antisocial to get booted off.

It was much easier than I thought thanks to guidance from TAC Support Superstar, Victoria.

Step 1 – Use link https://tonypolecastro.com/enroll/#SIGNUP

Step 2 – Select the Lifetime Plan and pay the $599 by credit card or PayPal

Step 3 – Contact Victoria at TAC Support by using this email address:

support@tonypolecastro.com

Inform her you’ve upgraded to Lifetime and request an adjustment of your prior payment (paid my first-year membership for $197 in March last year, after paying the $599, I contacted Victoria using the email address, she did the rest so life membership for TAC payment was $402 ($599 minus $197). To me that is a heck of a deal to “credit” last year’s payment. I used PayPal so I got notices of both the auto-renewal annual payment cancelled and $197 credited).

Hope that helps you @Stickmaker (and others wondering how to upgrade).

PS – I appreciate Mike G. mentioning to me the benefits of lifetime membership.

My spare is a Taylor GS mini too. I use it for Daily Challenges initially as I learn. Good idea to D tune yours for different kind of sound.
