Below is a link to a cover of O.A.R.'s "I Feel Home". Well, I shouldn't call it my first cover. I play in a band and do mainly covers, but this is my first real attempt using audacity thanks to the helpfulness of some other members on these boards. Please don't hesitate to make suggestions/comments. Thanks.

Very nice job. Have you recorded some of your originals? Throw me a PM if you post any of those.

Awesome work.
I also play, not nearly that good, but I play none the less.
I can't wait till I am at your level of skill.
I would also enjoy listening to some original material if you would like to share any.
Keep the Peace

Thanks much for the compliments. My band is currently working on recording our originals. As for now we only have a handful so a real investment is useless, but the magic of computers will be our source just like the cover above. I'll post em when they go up but it might not be for a while.

Hey man thanks glad you liked it. Honestly, I didn't use any tab, my friend and I figured it out all by ear. It is simply...
Intro - A minor
Verse - F, C, G, C
and the chorus - C, G, A minor
Its quite simple, but let me know if you need more detail.

thanks...I played along with it with these chords and it sounded good, but my problem is with rhythm...I know it's finger picking but the way I do it just doesn't sound complete

I love your voice, dude. Have you had any training for it?

As of yet I haven't. All the members of my band are in the Philadelphia area or Pittsburgh for school so we haven't been able to get together, BUT, we are probably opening for Cloverleaf at the HUB sometime in Feb or March. Also, I have been giving serious thought to a side project up here and have decided to start one. So as of now I haven't done anything up here, but in the future there is a good possiblity you might hear me doing something. Keep checking www.myspace.com/gracesgrandsons5
If anything happens it will certainly be on there. I will also start a myspace for the side project/solo stuff soon. It will most likely be www.myspace.com/nickstumpo but as of now it doesn't exist. Thanks for your interest man!

Not to be too repetative, but your voice has a crazy resemblence to Marc's. Anyways, nice work!

Thanks.
