There's this annual fair..
What happens is that, plenty of vendors from towns in the Rio Grande Do Sul state,
travel to Lajeado for this event
[called the Expovale]
and sell their wares.
One would imagine farmers back in the medieval days,
with their homemade jars of honey and Christmas cookies,
and juices that are actually freshly made.
Yeah, it's exactly the same - minus the cattle and costumes,
plus LCD screens and modern day clothes.
And of course,
who could forget the carnival rides that could potentially kill a person?
Yeah, I love those.
[They never come to Singapore anymore because it was ruled too dangerous.]
[I reckon]
Anyway,
that's what you see in the above picture.
Pretty neat, huh?
Yeah, till I found out a ride cost $5 each.
Not in US dollars, thank God - but still suicidal.
Are they that pricey in the US too?
Tell me, because it's a dream of mine to attend a carnival or fair in America.
Speaking of which,
you gotta check this out.
A beaut, isn't she? Or he?
38% alcohol,
made from 6 year old wood.
[Never knew that was possible]
And no.. It's not for me.
Still makes a lovely picture, doesn't it?
So yeah.
Ok, on to the next thing.
thank you www.savingcountrymusic.com for the picture
RED was just released!
Yay!
If you haven't bought the album on iTunes yet,
you can do so here
[and be one of the 2. something million others who did!]
Which brings me to,
Hello!
Have you seen the previous posts yet?
That's right.
Since everyone is doing a mad scramble to figure out chords,
do covers and whatnot,
why shouldn't I join in the race?
So we've got I Almost Do and Stay Stay Stay.
AND. One more - which I've not matched lyric to chord yet,
but if you're an eager beaver, here are the chords.
The Moment I Knew - Capo 5,
Instrumental: G D Asus D A
Chorus/Bridge: G D A Asus
You're welcome.
[Note: Whilst checking through the post, I realised that you only get The Moment I Knew and 2 other songs, plus three acoustic versions of songs from the main album if you buy the Deluxe version. I strongly encourage you to get it, because the songs are good enough.]
So I'll log off now.
Continue practising your guitar awesomez skillz,
and I'll see you soon!
Btw,
if you didn't know..
Freddie and Brandon of freddiew on Youtube,
will be coming out with VGHS season 2.
YAY.
They'll be opening their Kickstarter soon,
and I'll need to get the details..
But it's about donating to help them with the budget.
Please think about it, if you loved the first season!
Now, for some alone time with Unco Chin.
Al-right.
