A little mid-week madness for y'all. I wrote this song probably five or six years ago. It's about a guy who blows all his money on eBay. It's meant to be a humorous song but it's based on a true story. I decided to do an impromptu performance on my Les Paul Junior and cigar box amp. Why not?

Thanks Dave & Richard. It seems like a lot of folks are addicted to the Internet in general. Appreciate the comments as always fellas.

Love that Les Paul Jr! I have Amazon addiction.....bad! Seems there’s usually humor and wisdom in other’s true stories. Dave finding guitars and parts in cadavers, not there yet ha! Always a joy and learning experience watching and listening to you Poorness, stay sane..use brain...stay away...from eBay.

Good one Poorness. You hit a chord. I been there with guitars, ukes, banjos, fiddles pickups, broken guitars. I bought cheep though and I love playing my collection. I learned a lot repairing by opening the cadavers. It was cheaper than a college education. Hey, wanna sell that nice sounding little powder blue electric! .. :*)

Thanks Derek, Danny, and Clarky. Glad you guys liked it.

Oh I used to be addicted but it was more selling than buying.  It became a huge hassle though so gave that up.  Just buy the CBG parts on there now.  Great song Poorness!

NICE JOB POORNESS. THAT SONG COULD ALMOST BE ABOUT ME HOWEVER I ONLY BUY NECESSITIES ON EBAY

Good original Poorness. Got your Arlo Guthrie going on :)

Comment by Poorness Studios on April 8, 2020 at 10:38am

It is an alien logo AD. You are correct... and yes punk rockers love the Junior. As I mention... a strange combination of things in this video but... why not? Ha ha. Thanks for the comment bro.
