	Encore I love the guitar playing. This is a very cool song. It really feels like a big concert venue. Nice job! chip

	SmokeyVW said 258 days ago
	. well, actually, no guitar was touched in any way on this. i spent as much time on the crowd loops, handclapping, and reverb as i spent on singing and sequencing everything else! thanks

	SmokeyVW said 258 days ago
	. outta sight thanks

	SmokeyVW said 258 days ago
	. i had fun drawing that heart/peace image. i'm not sure i ever saw one anywhere, it's all fuzzy now. thanks

	SmokeyVW said 258 days ago
	. i had totally forgotten about Up With People. i saw them in high school, but never really knew what they were all about. wikipedia just dispelled that fog... those handclaps are totally synthesized - using GarageBand only. honest! thanks

	SmokeyVW said 258 days ago
	. thanks for inspiring me! this festival is great - and no mud this time

	SmokeyVW said 258 days ago
	. i don't think it was incense

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. the guitar is the Bluesy Acoustic Guitar synth. I started from a few loops and changed around the notes a lot. but i kept the rhythm and expression mostly. i seriously doubt it could actually be played as it is now (too many notes at once). more about the clap-along in another reply... thanks

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. thank you very much - i appreciate it

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. i think the AU Matrix reverb helps a lot overall. the clapping comes from Classic Hip Hop Remix drum kit. i used two clap sounds plus some extra reverb on them. plus i threw them off rhythm here and there as if the audience lost the beat occasionally (but i on a few more listens i think i over did that!) thanks!

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. it's all fake. but the feelings behind it are very real. thanks!

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. :-) :-) peace and love and thanks

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. thanks for listening friend!

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. and PEACE to you too - in every way thank you

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. well i'm glad you found this song. check out ALL the woodstock08 tunes - they are all worth a listen. thanks for visiting

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. i'm glad you liked this. i guess i put a bit of my essence into this one. (you know, the labor-of-love trip) thanks

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. thank you - i spent a bit of time crafting the crowd. peace to you as well!

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. let's hope only the peaceful aspects of social unrest replay themselves. we don't need riots or cities burning again. thanks for listening

	It's a Beautiful Day Marrying Maiden - one of my faves. Smokey - this is truly great - I'll keep coming back - dig the new picture.

	SmokeyVW said 257 days ago
	. the beads in that pic are - my beads - i wore those continuously for a number of years (as in never took em off ever). they are my identity, literally, in code anyway..., from those years gone by. i still keep them, and trotted them out to compose this little picture.

	nope had no idea about the bass player. but who knows, i know i have lost relatives somewhere

	SmokeyVW said 254 days ago
	. egobandit! you're back! glad you noticed the crowd - i spent a little time on that. Yes!? i have always admired their work, but how that could be reflected here, i have not a clue. thanks

	egobandit1 said 254 days ago
	Yes when I was young I wore out Yesssongs and the live parts remind me of this just in the atmosphere feel of it

	SmokeyVW said 252 days ago
	you are so with it man. i was digging that scene too. my chick told me that when you look up at the sky you are seeing half of the entire universe. heavy. very heavy. but the mud was a bummer. we might of split except the all good vibes made us stay. but seriously - i spent a lot of time on the crowd sounds - glad you noticed that. thank you sir

	SmokeyVW said 252 days ago
	yeah, you betcha - this was fun with a capital F. i was grinning most of the way. thanks peace today is the first day of the rest of your life make love not war
