...to drop in & out of falsetto.
At 68, my falsetto isn't what it used to be, but I can still do it.
I do a lot of 12 string stuff, but Sara... I do on 6 string.
I did it at an open mic afternoon about a month ago.
The other songs I did that day were Rundgren's "I Saw The Light" & a jazzy version (to a bossa nova rhythm) of the Billie Holiday song "Am I Blue".
A couple weeks back I did Undun, Have Ever Seen The Rain (with a chord solo before the 3rd verse), & Plush by Stone Temple Pilots. I took one of 12 strings that day.
