Swap Meet Ohio

[Michael Render]

Next Sunday, May 4th will be a swap meet and jam session sponsored by George's Drum Shop. It's in Copley, OH - just outside of Akron - and looks like fun. I will be there.

ah grrrrr you dawg - thanks a heap

...'This summer I hear the drumming'......

[SIZZLE]

George had a trailer load of used drums.... etc the last time i was there.

[Michael Render]

I think that is why he is sponsoring this swap meet - to get rid of those drums!

"Tinned Soldering Iron is humming,
Gotta' dump those As I own.
I'm into DIY drumming,
Swap Meet in O-Hi-O!"

[daveybabes]

Hey baby!

This kind of thing never happens here in the smelly UK, we pay tops for drums and even 2 and half times more for gas grrrr meowww

Can u take some pics for us? so i can have a view on it, like a window into a different world?

we do have car boot sales here, that consists of a bunch of people gathered in a muddy wet field at 6am getting soaked selling such golden nuggets as ornaments from 70's bric a brac (i hate that word) old sweaters, Dean Martin's greatest flops album, kiddies what nots and lawn mowers that don't work ...

wow drums drums he has a 48ft long trailer??? omg

aherm some pics would be lovely young Michael ... any chance?

Chorus;
Think I'll go down to it.
Extra gear's draggin' me down.
Shoulda been sold long ago.
Load up the camper and
Cruise it to George's Drum Shop.
Come home with more stuff, who knows?

[Michael Render]

I will get pictures!

And I can't believe we are filking here! WHat is the world coming to?

not sure this quaifies as filking...need more scifi/fantasy references...

Filk-like, or containing a certain filkiness for sure.

(Sorry I derailed from the original topic! LOL...seems like it added exposure for the "Swap meet in o-HI-o" though. )

-making an offical bid to make this a "filksong" by adding...

Sandpeople are blastbeat pounders
making rhythms that shake the bones
fixing droids with piezos I bought from
the Swap meet in o-HI-o.

The ball is in your court Michael. Get some players together and give Georgie a theme song for the day!

[Michael Render]

Yikes - but none of us has a sense of meter. Have you tried singing any of our lyrics? I'll just do what I always do at George's. I start playing:
"Dum - Dum
Dum-Dum De-Dum-Dum
Watch out for that Tree!"

[stickinthemud]

I guess we all do what we do best, ay?
