Imagine it: 180 miles of LPs, kids clothes, and missing-piece puzzles.
That’s the US-12 Yard Sale – a giant bargain bin stretching across southern Michigan.
We typically check out the local section, stretching from Clinton and Saline in the East to Allen (Antique Capital!) in the West. The tough part isn’t the driving – it’s the figuring out which yard/garage sale is worth stopping at.
This past year, I had no complaints: I picked up a Canonet in fantastic condition for $5 in Jonesville. Everything beyond that was gravy.
‘Feel Like Falling’ Tab by Riverside
Finally submitted my first guitar tab, featuring the song “Feel Like Falling” by Riverside.
It’s taken me a while to find the right combo of (a) a song I could sit down and teach myself and (b) a song that hadn’t already been tabbed. But this ear-worm of a tune made me want to learn it on guitar. I failed to find any tablature for it, so I thought, “What the heck?” I went home that night and fingered(!) it out on my own.
It took a few days to get the phrasing just right, and a day or two to get the tab just how I liked it. But now it’s been approved at Ultimate Guitar, so I’m officially a tabber.
Enjoy the song, because it really is damned catchy.
