Illinois

In honor of the Quincy Massacre, where four Teabagger Grannies had their feelings hurt by being asked to step out of the street back onto the sidewalk so that Obama's motorcade could drive by:

Bwahahah!

Note: This is the microphone and webcam on my Macbook, along with the iMovie software that shipped with it. No professional recording gear or software was involved in the recording of this video. Also, I'm usually a flatpicker, not a fingerpicker. But this song wanted to be fingerpicked, so I did my best, given that I'd never played Neil Young's "Ohio" before...

  2. Heh. Yeah, I never claimed to be a singer ;).

    Feel free to borrow. I'm interested to see what it sounds like when sung and played by a *real* musician, heh.

  4. I thought the music was nice, but I never claimed to be a music critic. ;)

    I thought the video with the "riot Police" and the teabaggers was very strange anyway. The police made me think of modern keystone cops or a bunch of those windup wobbly toys trying to march together.
