The Horse I don't know that I've heard this particular song. 12-bar blues pattern. Pretty typical Chet to me. I liked the mandolin. I am wondering if XXX XXXXX Boogie will be number one.

I woke up at 7:30 and managed to get out of bed with nothing untoward happening, so I had breakfast and went online for a bit. But then my eyes started gluing themselves shut so I flopped on the couch and had a bit of a nap. My...

Amber @AmbiePam (108302) • United States 15 Dec

What do you know about pawn shops?

Amber @AmbiePam (108302) • United States 17 Dec

Can you tell me what you know about them? I’ve never set foot in one, and if I did pawn something I wouldn’t be trying to get it back. Have any of you ever used them?
