Thank you Cakewalk! Couldn't have done it without Sonar

Just wanted to share this and thank Cakewalk and these forums for making this (at least partially) possible for me to even do. Wrote it in two days using Sonar X2 to lay down the initial idea then tracked bass, Session Drummer drums and and some rhythm and acoustic guitar. Collaborated with Paul who does not use Sonar to get Lead guitar and the main vocals (my voice sucks) and he tracked my backing vocals. This song was important to me and Cakewalk provided the tools to make it easy! Thanks to all who have answered some of my stupid questions in the past which also helped me to make this happen!

Enjoy the song but please take a minute to read the story as to why I wrote it too.
 
Thanks again all!

    Real nice sentiment to write this song. Such a tragic waste. I really don't understand how people can do this kind of thing. :(

    +1    This was a thoughtful thing to do!   Having grown up outside of Philly I recognize most of the places mentioned in the article. 
     
    Well done.
