Hi, [F] my name is Cory Wong.
I am a [Am] musician from the [Gbm] internet.
Today I [C] am conducting a social experiment I want to invite [G] you to be a [Abm] part of.
[Am] I've got a lot of goals and aspirations in life, just like everybody else,
but I [Em] have a few goals that are these kind of left of [G] center, weird goals,
that would be kind of [C] dope to pull off.
[E] The problem with these [F] goals is that I know that I can't do them [C] by myself.
So in a state of [E] vulnerability, [Em] I am going to [F] ask for your help
[C] because I truly believe in the [G] power of community, network,
and an [C] overall positive [E] outlook on life.
[F] So the first goal that I have is that I'm trying [D] to get the cause nod.
[F] What is the cause [G] nod?
It's when Dave Cause gives you the [D] nod.
I've been told by [C] radio promoters [F] and managers,
[Ab] nobody's [C] infiltrated the smooth [D] jazz scene at your age [F] since [D] Dave Cause in the 1990s.
Cause [F] is king of the scene [D] right now.
We call [C] him the Sultan [D] of Smooth, the Stamos of [Fm] Sax,
the Seacrest of Soprano, and the Sommelier [C] of Soundwaves.
[F] Now, if I get the cause nod, that's the [D] lead domino [C] for the entire smooth jazz scene to [Am] follow suit.
[E] I'm not a smooth [Am] jazz guy, but if I can get the cause nod, I'm in.
I'm [F] in!
I'm looking at you, Watercolor's [G] channel on [E] SiriusXM.
Stuart, I [C] know you've got connections.
Please [E] help me out.
Okay.
[F] That's part of community.
Number two, I've got a track [G] on my new record called Jumbotron Hype Song.
[D] It's [G] been a long time [Dm] since somebody has [Em] infiltrated the Jumbotron airwaves.
In the last 20 years, you've seen your Jock Jams, Queen, ACDC,
every time somebody scores a goal in hockey, it's [Bb] that
Da-dum-da-da [A]-dum!
Da-da-da-dum-da-dum-da-da-dum!
Whatever that song [Dm] is, I don't know what it is, [Db] but [G] everybody knows that song
because it's on every Jumbotron across [Gbm] the [Em] country.
My goal is to get on the Jumbotron speakers during a New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden.
Feels like a lofty goal, doesn't it?
I don't know how you get your music on Jumbotrons.
[E] I have no idea.
But I have a feeling somebody out there in my community and network knows somebody who does.
So I'm going to make myself vulnerable [Em] and tell you who I'm going for.
Extreme goal [Gb] number three.
Imagine this.
[D] The Rhythm Guitar Cruise, hosted by Cory Wong.
The Rhythm Guitar Cruise.
Dave Koz has his [G] own cruise.
And [F] when he was playing in jazz [G] band in sixth grade, learning his pentatonic scales [Em] on the alto sax,
he never thought to himself, [Gb] someday I'm [Gm] going to have my [Gb] own cruise.
I've been trying to get booked [E] on the Dave Koz cruise.
[G] Vegas, my booking agent says, bro, [D] there's no way you're going to get on that cruise.
They sell it out years in advance.
There's no way you're going to get on there unless you get the Koz nod.
Imagine like, I got a set.
I'm getting James Valentine from Maroon 5.
I'm getting Dave Matthews to do the acoustic stage.
No singing, just his rhythm guitar part.
Very underrated [C] acoustic rhythm player.
I'm going to get [B]
Brad [Am] White, Whitford,
the guy from Aerosmith to play rhythm [C] guitar, do some rock stuff.
We get James [A] Hetfield, Randall Stack behind, and some USB guitars.
I'm going to get my hero, Paul Jackson [C] Jr.,
to do a set.
[D] I'm going to try to squeeze in a lesson while I'm there.
[Bb] All right?
I [A] got big dreams, [E] and I truly believe [Bbm] that with the power of [Bb] community and a scene, that it [Ab] could happen.
So, I'm taking some chances here.
[Ab] If I fall flat on my face, so [E] be it.
Let's [F] do this, Internet.
