I live in suburban Atlanta, population of about 5,000,000 and the closest GMC'er that I know of is David Walliman and he lives almost 150 miles (~250KM) away.

Seems like there should be someone closer.

Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Jan 14 2009, 03:36 PM

I remember seeing another GMCer once that was from Nottingham so I guess he'd be somewhere between 0 and 5 miles from me.

Posted by: utak3r Jan 14 2009, 03:36 PM

Kris - how about incorporating some google map for every of us to put their living spot?....

Posted by: Toroso Jan 14 2009, 03:37 PM

I think he's the closest to me also. About 90 miles.

Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Jan 14 2009, 03:38 PM

I really like that. It would be so cool and a great advertisement for the resource as it shows we have members reaching all over the globe.

Posted by: mattacuk Jan 14 2009, 03:42 PM

I live closest to a certain someone

Posted by: purple hayes Jan 14 2009, 03:42 PM

We can jam at David's house!

Posted by: The Uncreator Jan 14 2009, 03:43 PM

I think Slammer is, who lives in Miami, Florida. I think we alo have an instructor who lives there too, Not sure.

Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Jan 14 2009, 03:46 PM

Jose Mena does I think?

Posted by: Muris Varajic Jan 14 2009, 03:48 PM

Fellow instructor Dejan, we are like 5mins drive away.

Posted by: Ajmurrell Jan 14 2009, 03:49 PM

I think Emir probably lives the closest! Only a few miles!

Posted by: Smells Jan 14 2009, 03:49 PM

hmmm not sure, I think Alex Lewis is the closest that I know of, about 30 mins drive

Posted by: lee Jan 14 2009, 03:50 PM

I live in Bartow,Fl.Not to far from you.

Posted by: berko Jan 14 2009, 03:51 PM

Zsolt Galambos lives somewhere around... I'm not sure which district of Budapest...

Posted by: Koopid Jan 14 2009, 04:40 PM

Prantare. dunno where in Söderhamn he lives, but it should be closest by far

Posted by: Bondy Jan 14 2009, 04:42 PM

Tank lives 5 mins away from me

Posted by: Marc_Maiden Jan 14 2009, 04:49 PM

i dont think anyone on this forum lives in the bay area....i think there might be 1 in southern california...but i dont know any in northern




im so alone!!!!!!

Posted by: besip Jan 14 2009, 04:53 PM

i'm not sure how to find out this
i'm in Chicago

Posted by: ZakkWylde Jan 14 2009, 04:56 PM

Chast lives about ~70 Kilometers from me, but I think there was a member from a town close by but I can't remember him...

Posted by: Piotr Kaczor Jan 14 2009, 04:56 PM

Instructor Kuba lives about 1500 meters from me

Posted by: Fsgdjv Jan 14 2009, 05:03 PM

I think Kris and MickeM or something like that. Haven't seen anyone from Uppsala here, so stockholm is probably the closest city with GMCers.

Posted by: Matt23 Jan 14 2009, 05:06 PM

I've never seen anyone on the forum from Scotland. I'm so lonely.

Posted by: opeth.db Jan 14 2009, 05:09 PM

Cleveland, Ohio here. Anyone, Anyone?

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Jan 14 2009, 05:23 PM

There are some Google Map applications that allow to map out locations on the net. I think it would be great idea to make a GMC member & instructor map!

Nemanja and Bogdan are closest GMC members (instructors!)

Posted by: Emir Hot Jan 14 2009, 05:35 PM

Yes I think there is nobody closer

Posted by: wrk Jan 14 2009, 06:11 PM

Jad Diab (ex Zizi Top) lives near by me, same city.

Google map is a great idea !!

Posted by: Canis Jan 14 2009, 06:18 PM

Jarl Emil, I believe. He lives in one of the closest cities to mine, even if it's a two hour drive

Posted by: Tolek Jan 14 2009, 06:54 PM

A certain Luxembourger (I forgot his name). I don´t know if he´s still active here.

Posted by: jdriver Jan 14 2009, 06:57 PM

One of the first things I did when I joined GMC was try to do a search for members near me. Alas, we have no such feature as of yet. Many people don't even list their location, for whatever reason.

But I'm probably the only member from New Mexico, until I can get some flyers out around Albuquerque.

Posted by: Ctodd Jan 14 2009, 07:03 PM

I am from the Philadelphia area, but I am attending Penn State University, which is right in the middle of PA, about 160 miles from home

I don't know of any other GMCers from PA

Posted by: purple hayes Jan 14 2009, 07:07 PM

Why does GMC hate America?

Posted by: VinceG Jan 14 2009, 07:19 PM

Guitarman and some other dude lives here in Michigan with me. I know one of em lives bout an hour away, and Guitarman is about 2 hour drive.

Posted by: audiopaal Jan 14 2009, 07:23 PM

Trond Vold lives right up the street, about a 5-10 minutes walk

Posted by: Ctodd Jan 14 2009, 07:24 PM

its not that GMC hates america! its that America, apperantly, doesn't have a fondness for GMC!

but seriously I guess since GMC is based in Europe, it might be more likely to show up in internet searches maybe?

Posted by: ShinyHighlander Jan 14 2009, 07:33 PM

I live about 100 KM away from Gothenburg where Lavendell lives.

Posted by: purple hayes Jan 14 2009, 07:34 PM

I'm a member of a smaller forum (US based). It only has 2,600 members and I know of at least 6 of them that live in the Atlanta area. Here's a forum that's almost 3 times bigger and I don't know anyone that lives in Atlanta that posts here.

I just think that's a little odd.

Posted by: JVM Jan 14 2009, 07:42 PM

I wish there was someone near me. I know there are a few people around North and South Carolina, I think though that the closest to me is in Hickory, which is about a 3 hour drive from me (though I actually pass that town on my way to another pretty often). Unless anyone lives in raleigh/durham/chapel hill.

Posted by: utak3r Jan 14 2009, 07:43 PM

And you live something around 1000 km from me...

Posted by: Kizaze44 Jan 14 2009, 07:50 PM

Where are the NYC GMCers out there?

Posted by: superize Jan 14 2009, 07:58 PM

I belive Blindwille live closest to me about 200 km

Posted by: Canis Jan 14 2009, 08:07 PM

Posted by: SonofDestiny Jan 14 2009, 09:06 PM

Either Jesse or Velvet Roger.

Yes, almost 1000 km...

Posted by: enforcer Jan 14 2009, 09:15 PM

Nobody, I dont know any Gmc'er around. Is there any Gmc'ers from Greece or Bulgaria? If not I have lots of friends on Bosnia and Serbia

Posted by: g-forcelover Jan 14 2009, 09:18 PM

Anybody live near wilmington, north carolina?

Posted by: Canis Jan 14 2009, 09:47 PM

I'm in Moss about once a month... Close enough?

Posted by: timono Jan 14 2009, 09:54 PM

Or me , dont know where you live though

i do know 2 gmc members living in the same town as i do (i swear i had nothing to do with it them subscribing or something. its not that they are in the same band as i am... )

don't know about any others...

timon

Posted by: Zephyr Jan 14 2009, 09:56 PM

I don't suppose there's anyone from little old Washington here, is there? Or Oregon, we're 15-20 minutes from the state line.

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Jan 14 2009, 10:16 PM

The GMC Google map application is a great idea for the future!

However - are you guys sure there isn't already a free service that allows you create some kind of group with a google map feature? If so, we could try that one for fun.

Posted by: Mandos Jan 14 2009, 10:38 PM

Kristofer Dahl among other live in Stockholm.

Posted by: Smells Jan 14 2009, 10:46 PM

here ya go try this one just for fun

http://mapservices.org/myguestmap/map/145

add your marker

EDIT: hmm, cant seem to get it working now lol, soz

Posted by: MickeM Jan 14 2009, 11:02 PM

I was thinking the same.

Just a little something paranoid to think of. If I were a burglar I'd love this idea. I can read peoples signatures for what they own, find their address (depending on exactly how this would work, idk), and then wait for people you declare in the forum that they are on vacation.
So keep your address a bit vague, maybe just a city rather than your street. I guess the odds are on our side but better safe than sorry all gear stolen.

Posted by: Smells Jan 14 2009, 11:02 PM

should be working now, just click on the map

Edit: as Micke said, keep it vague, ya never know

Posted by: Mandos Jan 14 2009, 11:11 PM

Yeah, there's no reason to make it more detailed than city since this is a global community.

Posted by: enforcer Jan 14 2009, 11:18 PM

How can I place a marker?

Posted by: Smells Jan 14 2009, 11:19 PM

zoom in on your country to find your city and then click on the map

Posted by: Velvet Roger Jan 14 2009, 11:21 PM

Either Son of Destiny or Jesse

Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Jan 14 2009, 11:24 PM

Ivan and Nemanja live pretty close to me

Posted by: MickeM Jan 14 2009, 11:25 PM

doesn't happen for me. I click and click but I see no marker

Posted by: enforcer Jan 14 2009, 11:25 PM

Yeah, I know it shall be like this but hand pointer shows up and it moves the map !

Posted by: Mandos Jan 14 2009, 11:26 PM

I can't get it to work either.

Posted by: Smells Jan 14 2009, 11:30 PM

tis a bit weird to use, took me a few goes to figure it out, use the arrows on the left to get your country in the centre then zoom in using the slide bar on the left as well, use arrows to scroll around to get to your city then left click on the map.

if you click on the map initially to move the map around it doesnt seem to work

Posted by: Mandos Jan 14 2009, 11:34 PM

Doesn't work either way for me. :-/

Posted by: Disturbed21 Jan 14 2009, 11:35 PM

Same. This is one tricky problem

Posted by: MickeM Jan 14 2009, 11:58 PM

I've done just that, navigated only using the arrows and + - to zoom. When I try to press I only get a hand that grasps for the map to move it.

I feel so unwelcome on earth right now

Posted by: Mandos Jan 14 2009, 11:59 PM

Earth only likes Smells

Posted by: Vaialation1232 Jan 15 2009, 12:10 AM

I live in the bay area

Posted by: MickeM Jan 15 2009, 12:24 AM

He probably set it up that way on purpose to fuel his grand delutions, his obsessive desire to rule the world. Well fine then, go ahead and rule your little map world!!!


Bondy, if you read this, don't you think Smells' obsession is worth a movie poster.

Posted by: Sami Jan 15 2009, 12:24 AM

Im live in NYC
manhattan to be exact

Posted by: Dreamcatcher Jan 15 2009, 12:28 AM

Ok i gave it a go with the map as well ...nothing no matter how i tried it...Smells is the only person on the face of the earth was so excited too ...Anways..the closet GMC"R is the one who lives near Maine USA...anyone??

Posted by: MickeM Jan 15 2009, 12:35 AM

Possibly me then, I live in a NW suburb.

Posted by: Fran Jan 15 2009, 12:51 AM

This google map idea is really cool!, now let's see if I manage to mark the map...

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Jan 15 2009, 12:52 AM

The map doesn't work with me either

Posted by: jdriver Jan 15 2009, 04:09 AM

Actually I'm glad we are so diversified. It's a lot more interesting when America doesn't dominate everything. And it's fun to say I have friends in Serbia and Sweden and Norway and England and Netherlands!!

Posted by: jdriver Jan 15 2009, 04:36 AM

Since you are the one who created it, you are the only one who can mark on it, unless...

Finally implemented one of the most requested features ever: now the users are able to edit or delete the markers they placed, with no need to ask for the map owner's help. To activate that feature on your map, just go to the admin area. The new option is called 'Allow users to edit/delete own markers'. Enjoy!

When a user clicks, he should see this:

Posted by: Emir Hot Jan 15 2009, 04:36 AM

This is probably the reason why the map is not working.

You can create several types of maps like:

1 Create a map to allow your website visitors to place pins
2 Create a bookmark-map: a map where only you can post
3 Create password-protected maps, and share them with your friends
4 Upload photos along with your markers
5 Integrate your Guestmap with Flickr, and get your photos on the map
6 Show your guestmap inside your own homepage!


I think the problem is that for this map option 2 was chosen. Can that be changed to option 1?

Posted by: jdriver Jan 15 2009, 07:25 AM

Yes, and since it can be embedded, let's have it here on GMC!

Posted by: Mrblomme Jan 15 2009, 10:02 AM

Davidian lives 20km from me I think.

Posted by: Smells Jan 15 2009, 10:06 AM

I`m all alone, I`ll look into the options again

get back to ya in a tick

Posted by: 29a Jan 15 2009, 10:12 AM

Is it? People tend to group together. Friends their refer friends. Post it to boards in which again, there are mostly people from a certain location.

Posted by: purple hayes Jan 15 2009, 10:39 AM

But I met all of the Atlanta people through that web site. None of the people I've told about GMC, either in real life or online have joined (as far as I know).

Posted by: ztevie Jan 15 2009, 03:09 PM

I think there should be prices for the most north and most south GMC:er? Maybe a amp or guitar free of choice paid by GMC?


Oh, by the way, I am the most north GMC:er in the world.. Well, for now anyway, when looking at the Map...
Administrator, please contact me by PM for my address, so you can send my new gear as soon as possible.

EDIT: Oh I just realize.... A bonus price should be awarded if you live above the Arctic Circle.

Posted by: purple hayes Jan 15 2009, 03:38 PM

I'll send you a guitar pick or ice pick; your choice.

/I'm currently the southern most GMC:er in the norther hemisphere until those troublemakers in Florida update the map.

Awesome Tony, I felt alone with all the country for myself
I spent a year living somewhat near you, in Málaga, a few years ago. Loads of sun there!, so different from the north

By the way you are the closest to me in the map so far , until some more spanish/french/portuguese members add themselves!

Good idea. I put my marker on the prison that is right around the corner.

I'm the only person in the southern hemisphere .... so far. Is there anybody else out there?

Posted by: jdriver Jan 16 2009, 07:53 AM

Dang, I thought there was someone close, but it's only Skennington's misplaced marker. DOH! Anyway I'm on there in New Mexico as an alien, since I am near Roswell. If you zoom in real close on satellite, you can see my ranch including the loop driveway at the bottom I built to turn around my truck.

Posted by: Praetorian Jan 16 2009, 05:01 PM

Disturbed21 - I just noticed you are from Gloucester? My wife is from Rockport...we go there all the time! You have to go check out Bills Music store in Peabody!

Posted by: Smells Jan 16 2009, 05:11 PM

I can delete you

I`ll remove you then you can re add

@ Skenny, I`ve removed you off the map, you can redo it now mate

Oh and I'll go check it out next time I'm in Peabody

Posted by: Ctodd Jan 17 2009, 01:02 AM

How does this work? I don't think I can find the map everyone is talking about. I checked the link in Smells' post on the second page of this thread, but the map there only had one person tagged on it.

Reset all your browser settings to there defaults (security, advanced, everything). Make sure you have the latest Flash and Shockwave pluggins. Also update your Java if you haven't in a while and then reboot and give it a go.

Mac users, in case any haven't figured it out, need to Cmd-click to bring up the Marker set box.

This map is starting to look funny. Those icons look like we are 2 big rugby teams Europe vs USA I think there are more of us.

This guy "ztevie" lives so far from everybody it looked scary a bit especially if you think of temperatures in that northern part of Scandinavia

Kris seems a bit lost, that's some distance from Stockholm

He problably placed it on top of Stockholm in a somewhat zoomed out mode.

What!? This is the center of the world!
Actually, the only reason the climate here is ok is because of the Gulf Stream that cross the Atlantic from the Mexican Gulf up to northern Scandinavia. Without it, we wouldn't have any summer to talk of, and the winter would be much colder..
Other places on the same latitude is Sibiria, south Greenland, north Canada, north Alaska... But because of the Gulf Stream I can safely say we have much warmer climate here in scandinavia...

Some friends in a band played on a Festival weekend here a few years back. It was December, -20 C. And they played outside!
They had these thin finger gloves on, but appaearantly it was rather cold anyway, and I can imagine the instruments and other equipment took some beating... Guitar neck warping, anyone...?
Actually nothing happened, they only played for half hour... A 3 hour set may have been an other story?
