Sometimes it's hard to introduce yourself...

But maybe not this time, that just seems like a cool and timely subject line.
I'm Ben Bradley and I call myself a musical hack on my FAWM/50-in-90 page, but I hope I'm getting better than that. I first heard of Songfight many years ago, maybe it was on the reconstituted Yahoo 50-in-90 list, or maybe back on rec.music.makers.songwriting. Anyway, I only signed up in July to go along with this summer's 50 songs in 90 days. I wrote a "I Will Be Acquitted" when that was the Songfight, but I never pinned down what the bridge should be, so I didn't submit it. I finally recorded it and it's on my 50/90 page. Here it is:

I wrote a few songs and fragments as a teenager (back when Nixon and Ford were President(!)), but I didn't get back into it until about 6 or 7 years ago when I started hanging out on rec.music.makers.songwriting.
I'm in highest age range and the top 1 percent of the Demographic Check thread. Geez, I'm old...
