Hi Everyone
When I saw the theme for this week I knew exactly what song I wanted to sing.
This week I am playing "Lazy Moonshiner" by The Lost Dog Street Band.
I was curious how it would sound playing this way up on the 7th fret , hopefully you guys enjoy the song.
"Lazy Moonshiner"
Lazy Moonshiner, shine your light on my dry lips
You're a gold miner, and this gold will make you stumble and trip
And momma can't take that bottle from you
They say sunshine is happy, Lord moonshine is too
Lazy Moonshiner
Thin this blood enough, to run through tight veins
Firewater
Hit my head hard enough, to flatten my brain and momma can't take, that bottle from you
They say sunshine is happy, lord moonshine is too
When morning comes, grind my coffee with a shotgun's blast
It's morning time, so cream my coffee, with your lazy moonshine
Said cream my coffee with your lazy moonshine
Cause your day's intentions are pointless as mine
Cause your day's intentions are pointless as mine

Ah lovely! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of alcohol when the theme was moonshine!
I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with for this theme :)
"They say sunshine is happy
Lord moonshine is to..." :)
Thanks man - I did manage to put mine up a little while ago! I hope you like it!
Yeah I just saw it and left a short essay of a comment. Your a man after my own heart ,I'm thrilled to see you be part of hive open mic :).
Ah excellent! Well apparently I have Irish and Scottish genes when ancestors escaped the potato famine to come to South Africa (a very long time ago)!
Wonderful , dig into the archives of the auld Scots ,Irish folk songs we have so many wonderful gems. Have you ever played around with the open G Irish tuning? One day I will get my head around it..
I learnt DADGAD tuning from a group playing Irish traditional music (tin whistles and fiddles, etc). I have found it a very cool tuning to write rock and blues songs to! I plan on posting about it soon and how I use that particular tuning if you'd find that interesting? I have played open D a bit too (D A D F# A D).
I definitely plan to mess around with other alternative tunings as well!
Just watched the Paul Brady video! WOW!
Spectacular bro, you are first in the week 124 Moonshine. We love your playing and you have a very distinct personal style.
Wow this track was amazing and of course your voice gets the attention. Thanks for your wonderful performance!

Your voice suits this incredibly well!
I love the angle; I didn't actually know about the liquor reference, but it seems to be an American thing..
Anyway, it widens the aspects of the theme even further! Great stuff!
