“Bapu’s Coffee House Blues”  
© 2011 quantumeffect & bapu  

Verse 1:  
My post count’s been sufferin’  
But that don’t matter much to me  
I said, my post counts been sufferin’  
Recording tracks for The CHB  
Or I could blame Willy  
Gotta’ get back to the Coffee House  
That’s where you’ll find me (with Bubba and Mesh)  

Verse 2:  
My post count is sufferin’  
X1 is buffering on me  
I said my post count is sufferin’  
Since I got me X1 E  
That’s expanded and it ain’t free  
Gotta’ get back to the Coffee House  
That’s where you’ll find me (where’s CASH DAWG?)  

Verse 3:  
Why’s my post count been sufferin’?  
Maybe cuz they’re unfunny  
I said, why’s my post count been sufferin’?  
Is Karyn making fun of me?  
I wonder is she really craigb?  
Gotta’ get back to the Coffee House  
That’s where you’ll find me (Day and Night)  

Almost Forgot to do the Bayoubill honorable mention  

Solo  


Verse 4:  
Let me tell ya  
My post count is sufferin’  
X1 is buffering on me  
I said my post count is sufferin’  
Since I got me X1 E  
And my 5-string by spacey  
Gotta’ get back to the coffee house  
That’s where you’ll find me (Day and Night)  

Outtro:  
Yeah, I gotta get me a couple of more posts in  
Gonna see if I can catch me a Beagle  
I know what Mooch says, WHO CARES??!!??  
Not Bapu, that’s for sure  
Hey Jan, Can you show me the shine of your Japan?  
I don’t know what I’m gonna do without some more posts  
Jules, you gotta help me

    Hehe

    The trials of maintaining a worthwhile post count is writ large.

    I feel your pain.

    (just not as acutely...)

    Great fun outing...It's great to just throw one down from time to time ain't it?

    I liked it. The sound on the guitars is very nice.

    You don't sound anything like I imagined.

    Maybe you can work in a line about a guy with an ax in his forehead in your next tune.

    What a perfect CH tribute!  LOL!

    You might want to post the overly complex lyrics (just kidding -- hahah!)

    Great guitars, btw.

    Surely this is just the beginning of a new CH spree.

    quantum - nice drummin!  very good - was that electronic and run thru Superior or how did you do them?

    @7-String_Guy - Hilarity is what I was going for. Seems I made it?


    @Larry - Thanks for listening


    @Beagle - I've learned one more note. I'm tied with Jonbouy's chords. Dave did live/real drums. He gave me a 4 mic mix. He'll have to give you the details though.


    @Robby - I amuse you (or do I?)


    @Mark - I had my postbots working day and night while I worked on it.

    … it was a lot of fun collaborating with bapu and Steve and I have to thank everybody for the positive feedback!!!

    Thanks Beagle!!!!
    for the drums, bapu sent me a mix and the bass track.  I aligned the mix and the bass track with the click in Sonar and played along to the click and the mix with the click and the bass up loud … so, what you are hearing is just a live take.  Two overheads, a mic on the snare and a mic on the bass drum.
