Here's another 3 string Cigar Box Guitar/Ukulele song. My friend, Steven Courtney, my daughter Keilah and Steve Bridgeman went to Boston to do a few concerts and conduct some seminars over St. Patrick's Day one time. Did you know St. Patrick's Day is like Mardi Gras in Boston? Anyway, Boston is famous for pubs and fish & chips. Every time we went out to eat Steven would say he was going to get a salad, or fish tacos, or something else, but when the waiter or waitress would come to take our order he would say "Fish & Chips"! I think he ended up eating fish & chips a half a dozen times on that trip. So we wrote this song together. I hope you like it.

Thanks so much, Poorness!  My son made this one for me.  It's one of those harder, samsonite-type suitcases, and he put it on a 2x4 and then mounted on a piece of plywood. That gets it off the ground and gives it a little more oomph, and the plywood is how I attach the foot pedal.

I really like your originals Fred. They are well written, well performed tunes. I gotta make myself some sort of bass drum like that. It adds so much to the song.
