The Corey's???hmmmmm!...Oh yes!!...I was wondering what ever happened!? Thought we were tight.....like peanut butter & jelly!! All of a sudden...You were gone- de-friended me to boot!!...then went scidattle!! Gone with the wind! I thought to myself- "hey maybe they finally made it"! Got a big recording deal and hit the big time! Well anyway maybe you just missed me!?? ...lol...Well...all I can say is ...welcome back!! Art...heard you had another back surgery!...I hope all is going well! I wish you all the luck and a speedier recovery! As for me...well... I'm alive thank the man upstairs(or is it Fred upstairs?-lol). After Thanksgiving suddenly fell majorly ill...thought it was a very bad influenza and waited 4 days before going to ER. Pain everywhere...in joints...muscles...G.I.pain with distention & severe sensitivity.....chronic diarrhea...fever...uncontrollable shaking and started hallucinations on the 3>4th day! ! Thought I was dying! Couldn't stand or walk any considerable distance. Wife said you're going to the hospital. Anyway...it's getting to be a long story! I was Dx'ed with Infectious Colitis and Sepsis...placed in isolation...IV antibiotics..you name it. All tests came back neg. for a bacterium! So it was viral! The lesson here is no more raw seafood...clams etc!! Symtoms started about 2-1/2 days after Thanksgiving buffet dinner! Believe it or not...still not 100%. And as you remember I'm suffering from chronic LBP/ D.I.S.H. disease! So there you have it! Yes...getting older blows!!!! No one is immune and we certainly don't get out alive! Enough of all this doom & gloom! Welcome back Coreys! I will tell you something.....when you left....just about all the good music left! I've been so down on it-really nothing good going on! It's the same ole...same ole...from the same ole-same ole! Depressing at least! So with open arms....I give you a great big hug-amundo! and look forward to hearing some Corey magic!! Hopefully you can resurrect this site because it's dying slowly!!

Tony, your shit sounds way worse than mine!! You think it was from Food poisoning.....Clams and what-nots??? I never eat that Shit ever.....anything uncooked, no-way Josay.....Bad JuJu!!
I have been on Tramadal for 2 years and have slightly become addicted to that pain Killer without realizing it.....My Bad!! You just don't realize how easy taking that Damn stuff can get, it takes the pain and every thing else away, all the worries of the world, feeding the Damn Cat, Paying Bills, taking baths, shaving, GETTING UP!! What The F@#$???? You get the picture!!
But Good News....It is the Fifth Day that I have been off Tramadal! I took another medication called Lyica for pain and it just Blasted me into Highper Space, it's not a narcotic though. The dose was accidently far to high at 150 Mg, should have been 25 Mg......some one messed up!! Anyway, I am still goofy from the over dose, but that over dose, got me off the Tramadal....It's a God send!! The Lord works in mysterious ways and I don't even believe in him....Hmmmmm Bummer! Maybe I should reconsider his existance??
Well, send me your direct Broad Jam Site, I don't care for this Back Door Pass word contact secret stuff, it dangerous in this New World Order.....

Hello Arthur!!!..I wouldn't go saying my condition is worse than yours! You had 2 back surgeries! I'm sure it's bad! Yup...you hit it on the head!..Vibrio- .food posioning! Believe that!? Never in my life and with something I really love to eat! Well anyway...no more! Not even sushi at the Chinese restaurants! That chapter came to an end! Tramadol?...that's a very light opioid for most people. They start with that! When I started pain management that's what I was put on! I didn't say anything-went along with the program but I already knew better-it did nothing for my level of pain. Then I went on oxycodone. It does help but more like a bandaid taking the edge off-that's all. I don't have the "addictive personality" like others do. I can stop taking it at will for days and weeks. No problems. So that's how I manage. Depends on my pain tolerance-and I take it day by day! In addition to 3 other daily meds that's how I deal with my pain! Even the other ones which are prescribed 2-3X/day I use when I want-not religiously. My pain Doc knows I know too much and understands why I do what I do. Who the hell wants to be taking all this crap everyday?.....doesn't change anything -that's for sure. You mentioned Lyrica?....yes....that's actually been on the market for decades-but it does help with some people. If you don't need the tramadol...don't take it...good for you!. Take it as you need it like I do with the Oxy. Sometimes I just say fuck it and have some shots of my top shelf tequilas- actually works better than pain meds to me...lol...and at least I get happy! I've been good-nodrinking since Thanksgiving! Pain meds don't make you happy...just screw up the head! God?....well...who knows...could be an alien?...that I would believe....but at least it's something to believe in!? We sure as hell didn't just appear out of thin air! Gotta be some explaination. Thing is ...we will never know! Probably better off that way! When you left Bjam and decided to south our friendship connection also left!?? When we originally became friends we communicated through that! It's up to you if you want to send me a friendship link again. No worries....here is fine as well.I understand you also had some difficulty trying to get back into Bjam! Art...be careful with a lot of these so-called / self -proclaimed producers and music wizards. Most of them are all full of shit and are just regular paying members like we are! I've always said Bjam is a nice platform to meet people and listen to indie music but there are some good sites that are better suited for getting your music out there and being heard...for a price that is! I don't care about any of that. I could care less about what people think of the music I have posted here...it's old and it's nothing more than a tribute to my late brother! That's it! Don't expect to go anywhere...don't want to! Just having fun! I have become disillusioned and frustrated knowing a handful of artists seem to dominate the entire site. Everyday their music is on their main genres and occupy all the subgenres. Some of the same songs on different subgenres. Is it fair that you give someone a 5/5 for the same song that's deliberately placed on all the subgenres!? and is it fair if you have 300>400 songs to have most of them playing (which seems automatically)...24/7!? I don't see any of them doing ratings to that degree to have that many on the review mechanism!? There are a lot of disturbing things happening and I reached out to Bjam about it. Haven't heard a word back as of yet! I personally don't think anyone gives a shit as long as you're paying every month. It's all BS......I spend less time on Bjam than before...I rate as I see fit...and I might just let it go at some point! Bjam is nothing more than a money making deal! All the submission BS...that you have to pay for...all the rigged contests! I could go on & on! Anyway....I'm here Art! It's nice to chat...get caught up...whatever you want to do is fine with me! If you want to resend a friendship link...cool! We can have fun supporting each other again and screw everyone else! Seems like no one gives a shit unless they get their almighty 5/5....lol......bunch of babies!!! Oh yeah....5/5 on broadjam will really get you somewhere...it's called tit for tat!!!...lmao!
Your friend in constant pain.I even changed my name...I need your opinion...it's either
Tony Pain....or Tony Paine!??( I think I like the latter!?...what say you Art!
Should I be bold enough to say....Toodles!???....lmao!!

Art...all this typing forgot to ask you how you're doing with those horrible wildfires out there! I'm assuming ok!?...because you seem to be further away from it! Thank the man /Fred Upstairs! Unbelieveable to say the least. Feel so bad for all those people who lost everything! Just doesn't seem right! Gov't better get their act together-this is inexcuseable!!!

Hey Tony Paine, sounds pretty cool to me! Like you....I think most of the stuff on Broad Jam is Money driven, so whatever?? Let's just be friends again and enjoy life and what's left of it!! I actually think the whole Music Industry is in Major decline and no one should really give a Shit....just my personal take!! The Big Acts due Concerts, make Big Money and that's the name of that tune!! There is no more little Guy songwriter's, Zip, Zilch!! Notha!! It's Over!! The Music Game has ended, the train has left the station, Bye, Bye!! Get the Picture Duh!! Sorry to be so negative!!
You are right about me being away from the fires Thank God, just miles though!!!
Stay Safe and off the Drugs and I will do the Same and we will try and meet in the middle, Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hey Thanx Pat..."Happy New YEAR" to you & family! I was getting worried about you! I sent you an email on 12-06-24...and saw you haven't read it yet!? Maybe you don't use the email!? Anyway...I sent it giving you a thank you on another BG tune! I think it's important that you know BroGreede came to an immediate halt when my brother passed in 2001. 6 years later my other bandmate passed as well. A real double whammy which rocked my world! There's only 3 reasons I remain on Bjam: to keep the memory of my brother and other band mate alive, listen to music & appreciate all the talent and to make a few friends along the way. I'm carrying the torch you would say! I'm not on Bjam for any other reason! Amen! My brother put us on Bjam in 2001...now going on 24 years!! I continue on in my own way. I have a drummer now who has joined me and I'm hoping to get back to some recording of tunes I've had on the back burner for many many years! Probably go in some different directions from BroGreede! Wish us some luck. Thanx for listening-that's all that matters to me!!
Wishing you continued musical success-put more of your music on the review que-so I can give you some nice grades!!

Hey Pat...you listened to BG's "Annabelle"....the offbeat you are referencing especially in the intro is a progressive meter. (10)..which I would'nt think you would be familiar. 4/4 meter is very basic in most music especially of the past and definitely not in the progressive genre. Most Rock is written in common time and is predictable and gets boring! I love playing in odd meters because it can be challenging, takes a special ear and skill and can add flavor & attitude in progressive music!! Thanx for giving a listen!!
