This thread is for those of us with nothing better to do than sit at our computers in the middle of the night looking for some way to pass the time when everyone else is in bed!!
The only rules here are....
1.) To Be Polite to Each other 2.) Have a Good Time 3.) Make new friends 4.) No Politics or Religion..( always causes an argument)
So let me start by introducing myself....
I'm David Allen Slater aka dasmusic and I am a professional singer/songwriter/performer/complete insomniac with an all round nutty sense of humor!!
I come here often to sing a song as we all do and make new friends and have some good conversation along with a few laughs.
But I also find that a lot of the time when I am up...no one else seems to be active in the forum topics that I frequent. For this reason I am starting this thread for all the people out there in the same boat as I am.
I don't mind if occasionally you want to promote a song in here but JRAS already has a fantastic thread for that in the promotions section and I suggest that you use it if you don't know about it. TitaPro started it and it has grown into a massive thread and expanded out into two separate ones. One is just for posting songs and one is for the same but with more chatting, fun and interaction between members. The larger one being the latter of the two above.
So with that being said welcome to Insomniacs and Night Owls and let's have some fun and keep each other company....
Peace, DAS

Thank you Betty for the comments and thank you for being the first to post here other than myself....I know we are not the only two people floating around at night so I hope the rest of you will pop in and say hello....

My name is Brenda and yup i am up most the night myself :) Oh see Betty on here to lol. Well it is nice to find a thread like this. It does get a little borring at night. and i hate talking to myself lol
Reply by dasmusicGOLD on November 3, 2008 at 2:57 AM
Amen to that...I go from one extreme to the other...but with songwriting the good ones always come in the middle of the night. But that is also when everyone is asleep and there is not many to talk to....I thought it would be good to stir things up a little tonight
Reply by dasmusicGOLD on November 3, 2008 at 3:00 AM
Let me say since this is all new...that I want everyone and anyone to come here as often as they please....feel free to run the room if you are here...hand out medals for flipping the page and such. Invite your friends and have a party....this is a room that people like us can just enjoy
Well it's now 2am and i am not sleepy at allllllllllllllll lol. I told my husband he needs to get a night job so we can sleep together in the day lol. Maybe i need to bye him a big teddy bear

Well since you girls are up...let's see who can be the first to flip the page....and we will have accomplished something useful...hehe....I guess we need a medal...anyone have one lying around??
So how long have you been writing songs Das? I useto write some myself and had my own band back in the day named Home Grown Country. It was funnnnnnnnnn :) Thats probably why i am a night owl now. Al them late nights in the band and partying after lol
Reply by dasmusicGOLD on November 3, 2008 at 3:09 AM
Well I think I've been writing ever since I was around 12 or 13....but it got way easier and my songs got more mature after having a lot more life experience to draw on. I've played guitar for 33 years now but it took time to find my voice and then be able to use it in public
bipolarbetty hugzzz to my husband paddy19...you make it all worth it baby ;o)

I've been a night owl for as long as I can remember. When I was in high school my dad nicknamed me Dracula, and my parents tell me I was same even as a baby. I love it, I love the quiet serenity of the night.
I'm going to sign off here soon, and play a little bit of dominoes on Yahoo before I go to sleep. It's 12:18 AM but really 1:18 for my system (due to day light savings time).......Helen
