Right on guys, my sentiments exactly. Cougars voice was higher!

[alicecooper]

Very nice. Are you tuned to e standard or drop D?

[ripley]

That sounds great, thanks!  I can do Key of A as long as it doesn't have the dreaded "F#m"

[HeartlandStudiosTV]

You are doing a really nice job...keep it up!

[jacknone]

It’s in D, drop D. The progression is D, G, A.

Would be nice if you actually told us what the strumming pattern is that you are using and when you switch chords.
