I didn't fall in love, it fell on me.

It will always make sense if you don't think about it too much.
I've been writing, recording and performing music for longer than I care to admit. Let's just say 20-25 years... give or take... as the crow flies. In the studio I do about everything except drums. I'm not 'great' at anything, just 'pretty good' at a lot of different things. I currently front 7 different line ups and outfits of various shapes and sizes and that keeps me playing pretty much year around. I can scale it down for budget-gigs and I can expand it out for the 'Big Show'. Current Acts: 1. SOLO- Louie McNeal (Acoustic Guitar and Vocal) 2. DUO 1- Fitzpatrick/ McNeal (2 Acoustic Guitars and 2 Vocals) 3. DUO 2 - Mc2 (Acoustic Guitar, Bass and 2 Vocals) 4. TRIO 1. - Acousticats (2 Acoustic Guitars, Upright Bass and 3 Vocals) 5. TRIO 2. - Hard Edits (Electric Guitar, Bass, Drums and 3 vocals 6. TRIO 3. - LTC (2 Acoustic Guitars, Percussion and 3 vocals) 7. QUARTET- Long Time Coming (Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Bass, Drums and 4 Vocals) [Though the majority of these bands and acts primarily focus on genre specific cover material, they are all capable of performing our impressive catalog of original compositions, when the opportunity presents itself.] I have recorded and produced 9 of my own albums (most available here on this site) and I have produced countless other acts and performers throughout my region. I love collaborating on songwriting. Some of my more accessible and popular tracks are ones where I worked with a collaborator. Music is my life. I sacrificed a LOT to be able to do it on my own terms and be happy about it. There are easier ways to go, but I prefer the more challenging aspects of writing, recording and performing my music. I really like the phrase, "A calm and easy ocean will make a lousy sailor out of you." Don't know who said it, but I seem to live by it.

Story behind the song
Love will come down on you hard, when you least expect it.
Lyrics
V1: Streetlights flicker on the edge of town Wind picking up, and the rain falls down on me It falls on me All I wanted was a moment of truth All I found was that the burden of proof is on me It falls on me Chorus: And I pull no punches, when push comes to shove I'll stand my ground, I won't fall in love But it falls on me, your love falls on me it falls on me, your love falls on me V2: Photographs of a day gone by Take a look and have a good long cry on me Tears fall on me But the pictures are faded and the edges are curled Sometimes it seems as if the weight of the world is on me It falls on me Chorus: And I pull no punches, when push comes to shove I'll stand my ground, I won't fall in love But it falls on me, your love falls on me it falls on me, your love falls on me Bridge: If falls on me like a summer's rain baring down like a south-bound train It falls on me and everything I've lost Is on a burning bridge I'm only halfway across When it falls on me V3: Corner-pocket and the three-ball sinks Be right with you baby, have another drink, it's on me This one's on me And the streetlight flickers on the edge of town Wind's picking up and the rain falls down on me It falls on me, it falls on me Your love falls on me
