Guitars, whiskey, guns and knives.

Hello people of the english forum,

My name is Jesse Motley. I have lived in BLS area for a little over 9 months. I came to Switzerland for love. I have worked on and off random jobs for the time I have been here. I come from the sweet mid west Salt Lake City, Utah.

My main purpose for this thread is to meet people, make friends. It seems like the last 9 months I have been here I have spent most of it in my room. Its not a bad thing. I am in love with my 6 string banjo and play some guitar. I hope to meet people who maybe would like to play or practice or just have a good time.

Catch ya on the flip side.

Welcome Jesse, anyone who plays banjo (even 6 string ) has to be OK!

Re: Guitars, whiskey, guns and knives.

Speaking of whiskey. Why is it so hard to find the Jim Beam here? 8 year, 5 year and Rye.

There are many choices in this life
That we don't get to make
Like who's your pa, where your from
And when the leaves are down it's time to rake

But you can choose your drinking partner
And mine ain't from Tennessee
Yes, it's straight Kentucky bourbon for me
Oh yes, it's sweet Kentucky bourbon for me

Guitars, whiskey, guns and knives
Three's a crowd and one more's a fight
Four good ways to wreck your life
Guitars, whiskey, guns and a knives

Before I got this Martin box
Before I got my guns in hock
Every night was on the rocks
Before I got this Martin box

(repeat chorus)

A shot of brown and a glass of ice
Will loosen up your fingers nice
Songs that give the girls a thrill
Son that's the kind that'll get you killed

Re: Guitars, whiskey, guns and knives.

So youre in love with your sixstring and thats why youre here? Are you trying to have your Huey Lewis moment? He got his start playing his harmonica across Europe. I dont know know if anyone in BLS is Bucolic enough to understand the Banjer. You should try the hills! I bet they got plenty of JB for you.
