This was seriously fun to participate in. Who would've thought --
J&B in a broad international production. Like ROG said
"A superbly frivolous bit of fun, but a seriously good song
at the same time."

We've listened on three different systems and that ambience
provided by all those vocal tracks is amazing. It might be easy
to dismiss how it came together but I am SURE that it took a
world of balancing to get it "right."

Most excellent, mr jane!

J&B

Great fun song Floyd, when I saw your post first before listening I immediately thought of Toby Keith's I love this bar (I love that song) but of course yours is totally different but just as enjoyable.

Great live feel to it with all the people you have got involved, and a great mix as usual.

Thanks for all the tips your have given in past really appreciate it.

That was written by a writer with experience! (I will let you decide what I meant by that)

I haven't been commenting much lately, but this could not be ignored!

What a line! Just awesome!

Great job chorus! You sang the part believably!

All the way around a great, well written, well performed song. Bumper sticker writing at it's best!

Ha Ha! Well done Floyd. I was looking forward to hearing the whole song. Loved the bar scene. I cannot imagine how difficult it must be to mix 32 tracks!

Kudos to you for your usual creative home run, and to all the participants who helped to turn it into a community building effort as well as a truly enjoyable piece o' work!


Always love to read your reviews, Pat. Thanks a bunch...

With a "Floyd song", the question is never "Will it be good?" but always "How good will it be?" It was great to get a listen to the rest after "appearing" as one of the drunks in the chorus. Thanks for inviting me in Floyd! This is a lot of fun, and exceedingly clever. I love using "lynchin'" as a rhyme. That's up there with "seen" and Jenny Bernstein". The arrangement, mix, and vocal are at that high level we've all come to expect. AND, great job capturing the whole "bar room" in such a live and natural way! Loved it all the way!! Take care. Greg

Thanks for your remarks on the forum. But people who it concerns won't read it anyway.
Thanks for brightening up my Good Friday.

Appreciate that, Guenter. (I think you are right about the remarks not being read)
