My wife got me a ukulele for Christmas two years ago and about 6 months ago I figured I'd take a whack at writing a song. (She says my playing has improved but my singing, not so much.) Thought some of you may be able to relate, so if you want to risk two minutes of your life you can't get back... here it is as recorded on my phone. https://soundcloud.com/awkward-pauses/i-collect-old-gas-pumps

Thanks guys, appreciate the kind words. I thought it turned out pretty well and was kind of fun over a couple weekends. Sam, not ready to quit the day job but maybe take a little time off to to hunt for pumps and tour when it gets warmer.

https://soundcloud.com/awkward-pauses/i-collect-old-gas-pumps...bumping this to the top for anyone who hasn't heard it...Brian played it for me and Greg while we were loading up the truck for the ride home from this year's Columbus show...we agreed it was pretty damn good stuff...
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...
