STEEMIT OPEN MIC WEEK 64

BY: @smith-house | CREATED: Dec. 20, 2017, 9:10 p.m. | VOTES: 143 | PAYOUT: $145.72 | [ VOTE ]

Hey folks, getting this out late but here's my submission for #openmic this week. Wrote this song about a girl I met when I was out hitch-hiking around the US, she was living a similar homeless lifestyle. We met in Flagstaff AZ, and we were going to hitch together to California but I chickened out and skipped town without her. Regretted it like crazy back then, but hey made for great song writing material! Definitely don't regret it now that I have a beautiful wife that I get to play in a band with :)

Love this!! congratulations! the harmonica is a great touch! Is that a bouzouki you're playing? it sort of sounds like a banjo without the snare thing hehe, I like it :)

@smith-house | Dec. 21, 2017, 5:57 a.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

Thank you @luisferchav! Yes indeed it is a bouzouki, most people I meet have no idea what it is so well done!

Hehe nice, I have a special place in my heart for not so mainstream instruments, I just love the different sounds you can get, and I've wanted a bouzouki for some time now :)

They're awesome! A little pricey but worth it, especially if you have any mandolin or violin background. Same tuning. Mine is made by Trinity College in Germany, highly recommend it.

Oooh, nice! I'm gonna check them out hehe, it's gonna take a while because I'll be paying for a custom Ubass I had made recently hehe, but I'm gonna get there!! thanks! :)
