I been sitting on my front porch listening to the crickets and the frogs and the toads and the owls and the trees this evening for my symphony and it has been spectacularly beautiful!
I have a message from theBuddha to pass along that I hope is OK for me to share here, if not let me know and I will remove it.
Next week, it will be the 20th of August. That's actually our 4th year anniversary.
Now, I know some of you don't like Poal, where we currently host the thread. That's fine. You don't have to use the rest of the site. You can just come participate in the thread. You can be nice, mature adults who are able to ignore things they don't like! I know you can do it. I have faith in you!
Anyhow, I hope this reaches all of you and that you're in either good health or good spirits. We'd love to see you, even if it's just for one day out of the year. You don't even have to bring anything new, you can just show up. You can even share a track you've shared before.
In the fog of all the site drama I think the importance of the FNGT may have been overlooked. It is the most consistent, longest running thread from Old Voat. We have been online every Friday night for almost 4 years now and have no plans of stopping. Although the demise of old Voat caused a lot of confusion to many old goats, many have even disappeared completely, we have been here every week, always promoting and encouraging people to share of themselves no matter their skill level or instrument. Outside of the current events and socio-political happenings, we've never banned anyone or prevented them from posting. Most participants seem to recognize its been a refuge, only concerned with the desire to make music.
Music is of course a very personal and intimate part of our lives and we have tried to give a place for people to come together and share the joy of expression. We have certainly seen a decrease in participation since the abrupt ending of Voat but have ensured it continued, always allowing everyone an opportunity to come together and listen to each others talents and dedication. I would hope some of the old goats, and many new ones, could look past the host we've had to settle on and join us for this celebration. We have always strived to be an island in the midst of the current state of the world and just have a place to enjoy each others company for a few hours each week. I do hope some will put aside their site concerns and join us for this celebration.
Its just one of those days where you dont wanna wake up, everything is fucked, everybody sucks, you dont really know why, but you wanna justify, ripping someones head off...
F..k, man, I know what you're going through. Like, I'm in my second lockdown but you guys have gone through what, six? If I didn't have all my pals on Voat to talk to, all none of them, I'd be going outside and screaming:

I'm enjoying the outdoors music too plus my 'video' is watching some heat lightning off in the distance.
It's okay to share :-)

It's mixed a bit quietly, so you should turn your speakers up a bit.

Chris Janaon - buy me a boat.
It’s (to me) catchy fun and an easy beginner rhythm guitar.
