The Laughlins

For those of you who didn't know, I enjoy writing songs in my spare time, but I have never been able to really perfect them or record them anywhere. I used to play open mics at the Placerville Coffee Shop when I lived in NorCal, but didn't continue in SoCal. However, I still kept writing and playing (for Mark) for fun. I still don't have any equipment - in fact I left my "real" Ovation guitar at home because I was worried about it surviving the trip to Israel, and I bought a very cheap acoustic guitar at a music shop (here) in Israel. Since I tend to forget some of the songs that I write, especially if I don't play them over and over again when they are new, I decided to start recording rough clips of them on my computer. I don't have an external mic, just the little pinhole-in-my-screen-internal-mic on my Mac, but it does pretty well :) So, this is a very rough version of a song I just wrote (and I cringe when I listen to myself miss notes), but I decided to suck it up and post it anyways. It might take a little while to load, but it works...I checked it.
