Pretty much how it is around here. Typical small town Shelbyville.

A couple of friends that get together and play for fun. If someone else likes it ... that's a bonus.
The music we're working on right now is acoustic based with lyrics that touch upon real life situations, or feelings that most people can relate to. We use various people, for various parts ... from a circle of friends. All the basic music is first conceived on acoustic guitar by Doug Dillman.

Lyrics
Around here Nothin' changes, just stays the same Around here The same old girls, with the same old games Band playin' tonight, they're the hometown stars It ain't much, but it's all I know I'm alright as a common Joe This old town ain't got much to give But it's where my friends and family all live It ain't much, but it's all I know I'm alright as a common Joe This old town ain't got much to give But it's where my friends and family all live Go to the market every Friday night Same little girl at the checkout line Don't know her name, but she always says "Hi" Around here Go to Willie's and have a beer Same old faces from year to year Nothin' really changes around here It ain't much, but it's all I know I'm alright as a common Joe This old town ain't got much to give But it's where my friends and family all live It ain't much, but it's all I know I'm alright as a common Joe This old town ain't got much to give But it's where my friends and family all live Around here Nothin' changes, just stays the same The same old girls, with the same old games Long way from fortune and fame Local bars Band playin' tonight, they're the hometown stars
