Dream We Dream - Original Song
It's time to let the beard and belly show and play an electric guitar for the first time here on Hive!
I'm playing this song I wrote around 2007-8 on a Peavey T-27 in honor of my long time musical conspirator @orkhammer joining Hive! He recently let me borrow this guitar and surprisingly I could make it through this whole song (I haven't been able to play this song on my acoustic guitar because of the condition of my hands)
Go check his song Wait For Me and give him some follows and likes!

We will have some collabs coming soon
Here are the lyrics to Dream We Dream
my sympathies for being frank, confusing and a fool,
but words are spells of power they say.
the situations looking grim the prophecies the ruling class,
the bare and battered bodies of the slaves,
may all who suffer find the source
rewrite the dream we dream into what can't be ignored,
from the arms of our lawless memories
to the limit of what we may never know....
they laugh at us, we laugh at them,
they are ourselves as we are them,
the joke is huge, more than we see,
that's the way it's been, will it always be?
we live in an age of demons who don't breathe sleep or cry,
see their sigils up on every wall,
persuading us to buy into the great commercial lie,
this mindless train can't support us all,
may all who dream the dream, find the way,
may all who have the fear cease to be afraid,
may all who hunger find food,
may all who come into this world live it true.
Rising Star Update: I'm level 88, next goal 100! Even better, my latest raking is 38 and I got .26 swap.hive today. Sweetness.

Nicely done, sir.
I came across @orkhammer's tune earlier before I heard yours, so had already said hi as I liked what I heard. ;-)
that's so awesome! This community is really the best. been playing music with that guy since highschool!
Wow. That's ace.
He did mention sharing tracks - I'm always up for interesting collabs and the guitar/synth mix might be -er- interesting.
But if you guys are doing stuff together, maybe a gribblymix of one of your tracks might be fun?

So great man. Did you do your own music before, like an album?
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Yes! I've been playing and writing for over 20 years. Over the last year me and my friend Mike compiled everything and I was shocked to see I reached over 200 songs written!! 😮
Most is under Junkfeathers, but I wrote in other bands as well. Almost all of it is here: https://floob.net/junkfeathers
Great job man, keep it up. 🥳
Thanks! As the saying goes, music for life!
Get on it! Make that peavey talk to me.
Wow, I loved your riff. What do ya need to get the bassline and the drums for the song. I'm sure that it could be produced in a computer. Your tracks rocks!!!
When he needs anything BASS related, he knows where to turn. A simple spell uttered which summons a precious magic that ignites from within.😀
I was debating on whether I should record and produce this one. I think you just convinced me that I should! Thank you for the encouragement :)
hey @orkhammer is this one you want to write bass too??
