The Jam, Down in a tube station at midnight, on a CBG

Probably one of my all time favourite songs bastardised by me on a 3 string CBG. Sorry Mr Weller! Not quite the same with out that memorable bass-line, but still a fun song!

Nice job! Jam songs are tough... always hard for me to remember all the words/phrasings.

Thanks for the love guys lol!.

Uncle John, a friend and I were discussing acoustic guitars once, another friend overheard (obviously not very well)  and wanted to know what all this talk of poo sticks  was about. I know I'm not playing an aPooStick here, but you get the idea lol!

Steve, always love the sound of a decent busker in a tube station.

Dandy bastardization.  Like your singing on this one.  Like that.  Poo stick?   There's the good end of the stick and the poo end.  Is that where your name comes from.
