She's immersed in her beloved, and only has eyes and ears for him? Or, she's refreshing her lipstick while gazing into her powder compact, immersed in herself

Bjorn stated his fancy expensive new guitar "plays itself"
How's that work? You've still got to know all the chords, right????!!!! You've still got to have a lot of manuel dexterity in order to "pick"--ain't that right?

I think I know what he means, cause I say the same about my guitar. With some guitars, one thinks of playing something and it's played... well, not exactly like that. But with some it's like you need some kind of effort to make the notes "sound". But others "let it happen" so one got the feeling the guitar "plays by itself" not that you got to make the guitar play something.

I keep having the same problem with video on my PC. If I record some video it just doesn't synch with the audio. So the audio of a song can be 4.00 and the video of the recording can be 3.35. Very weird thing, so all I can show is blue screens. Well, at least the video uploads faster.

Hey guys, How are you all doing? You're still hanging out here? Do some of you yet remember me? Bjorn, your hair is so long lately! I've been quite busy with my guitar playing. I also sing in these days and I play gigs regularly at our local Singer/Songwriters Guild. And also other gigs, by the way. I have just finished FAWM (www.fawm.org) for which I had to write 14 songs. I'm kinda exhausted now and I'm in my exam year at school, so I've got a pretty busy time at the moment. I don't want to spam my music here, but if you're interested there's a couple of demo-recordings on my bandcamp. www.roydesmet.bandcamp.com I think I would like to record some Beatles covers in the future and maybe collaborate with you guys!

Not much action here lately... I don't remember you really. Glad to see you anyway.
I could write 14 songs in a day, maybe in an hour or two, but I don't think not even one would be great. I'm listening to your music now.

As I don't see much going on here...
I'm gonna write out a little. I think there's some thing going on here in Spain about rock and roll. Maybe it's a worldwide thing... Lately (some months or so) I've seen quite often things like "new rock and roll music pub" in many cities, once and again. Also MTV plays here mostly rock and roll now and 3 years ago it was hip-hop, pop, etc. A "music pub" has opened in my town. One with rock and roll concerts, that didn't happened since the 80s. (!). Stefan talks too about something going on there... so maybe there's really something going on about rock and roll music.

I was quite active here a few years ago. I don't think my Magnum Opus will be in these 14 songs but I thought it was a good practice. And I think there are some nice ones between these songs. Maybe you recognise me by my old avatar:

I wondered sometimes how the Beatles would have sound with more guitar distortion, kind of like Queen. Something like this Sgt. Pepper's - The Beatles with Paradise City-Guns and Roses as background. The ending is just terrific.

Just dropping here to say What's that I'm doing... Recording 2 songs of mine... and as usual it takes muuuuch longer for me to record an original than a cover. In one of the songs I just can't finish the lyrics... I've tried many times but I never have come with anything that makes sense. I'm tempted to just repeat the same words over and over or so. I've been busy with something not related to music... But now I'm into something special here in Barcelona. The more music people I know the more the same problem I see. How hard is to find somewhere to play here. Maybe you can get to play once or twice.... a year!. Who wants to learn the songs for playing only that?. So I've thought of.... creating places to play. And forget about the typical venues, like pubs and all that. Our places. I've found several really possible places, and now what we're going to do is doing little festivals there. Several bands playing in once place. And that's it, I don't have a clue of how many musicians we'll be playing and how many audience. I'm turning out now to be a promotor too
(I think Sam Leach will find this funny). So I think I already been all you can be in the music world in one way or another. Composer, lyricist, singer, multiinstrumentist, arranger, producer, recording engineer, record company, manager... and webmaster.
Not even Paul has done this, but almost. what about youuu?

That sounds fantastic, Oliver
You're quite enterprising! Super

I'm working on an industrial/metal project with some friends: Here's an early mix to our very obviously unfinished song, "We Were Warned": http://www.zshare.net/audio/88215822b7881c0a/

Well, maybe nothing comes out of this, but it's better to try than to do nothing. Or to just "wait". Trying to copy the spirit of what Sam Leach did half a century ago. I've got the place, now I need some more bands and the audience. I guess I'll beat that day The Beatles played to an audience of four people in a Sam concert.

quite trippy

as usual, I'm an optimist and things are harder than I thought... What I'm finding in my kind of "promotor" thing is that most musicians don't want to perform regularly. They prefer a one night show once a year or so. So, well... I should go into... self-promoting.
am I so weird to want to play regularly? That how is supposed to be.
-
Yeah, in my experience they do. My musician friends can't get enough of playing live... a couple play 2-3 times a week in the 'open mic' circuit in my area.

Then is I'm not finding those kind of musicians. I have a created a jam session for next Sunday. I placed an add, we don't know each other.
