Daydream
By: Brett Michel
11/21/2001
This was the first song released by native Portlander Brett Michel, and it’s his best in my opinion. I know I can’t do the song justice, especially after seing him live in Eugene this summer. This is the acoustic version, which I saw him perform, it’s all downstrokes, but you should listen to the song to get the staggered pattern down right.
