kip reitz columbus georgi
I'm a rock guitar player in Columbus, Georgia looking for other band members to play clubs and small theaters.
Kip here! I've been playing guitar and writing songs for quite a while now. Typically my tunes are in the blues-rock, classic rock vein, but some delve slightly into jazz and classically-inspired. I'm looking to find some band members to play clubs and small theaters here in the southeast. While you're online, please go to YouTube and search for Kip Reitz and check out some of my videos. There are covers as well as originals there. Thanks for stopping by!

Story behind the song
Paul brought over the music to record and together we hammered out the arrangement and the lyrics.
Lyrics
Half a World Away Well therea€™s a man living from day to day Taking life as it comes at him He dona€™t know any other way And therea€™s a girl, doesna€™t have a care Life is one big party She aina€™t going nowhere He was here, she was half a world away They didna€™t know their paths would cross some day From a world away He was a drifter going from town to town Working dead end jobs Nowhere to lay his head down She was a fast girl, not afraid to take a chance But lately somethinga€™s changed And she dona€™t want to dance Herea€™s what happened on that fateful day One step too close to the edge Maybe Ia€™ll meet you from half a world away Maybe life dona€™t work that way A lonely man sits and ponders life Looks up in the sky And he wonders why Well he left this world the way he lived A simple man without a plan And everything to give Now theya€™re here, but so far away From the life they left behind I finally met you from half a world away Funny how life can work that way -Paul Livermore -Kip Reitz
