Chocky Kay...
Plays all instruments and sings all vocals. He performs live while being backed up by his own CD's. He cuts out the lead guitar and lead vocal on his studio tapes! (This has been done frequently in music, but ALMOST NEVER with ROCK!)
He was told it can't be done, because no one will like it! NEVER tell him that...he'll go right out and do it!

"...Hendrix meets the Eagles".
BUT THIS IS NOT CLASSIC ROCK!
This Hendrix/Eagles comment was based on his use of masterful artistry on the guitar, at the level of those such as Hendrix, but also having the fortitude to break away from the seemingly current trend of a sea of rock groups with one singer up front. You'll still hear his biting, edgy, artistic lead guitar riffs, but they're a base of color which form a platform for the multiple harmonic vocal arrangements in almost every song.
For the first time since he's been producing and selling music, he's finding listeners whistling or singing along with his music. He's reminded of Burt Bacharach's comment when asked what gives him the greatest satisfaction with his music? Burt replied, "It's when I hear someone on the street whistling one of my songs".

yes i olso have the Glock 45 and 40 cal.best pistols i have ever owned and or fired.I would definately suggest the glock model 17 9mm.It has a 17 round clip capacity and is one of the most dependable, comfortable firing 9mm. i have run across.you can't go wrong with a glock. Feel free to "shoot" anymore questions my way if you have any.
Do you know what astonished me most in the world? The inability of force to create anything. In the long run the sword is always beaten by the spirit. Soldiers usually win battles and generals get the credit for them. You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war. If they want peace, nations should avoid the pin-pricks that precede cannon shots.
I love this Buddhist quote and thought I would share with you!
The greatest achievement is selflessness. The greatest worth is self-mastery. The greatest quality is seeking to serve others. The greatest precept is continual awareness. The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything. The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways. The greatest magic is transmuting the passions. The greatest generosity is non-attachment. The greatest goodness is a peaceful mind. The greatest patience is humility. The greatest effort is not concerned with results. The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go. The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances. Atisha
