just like to start off by saying hi and yes,kris, I too am a fisherman FISHING RULES!

I started out guitar career in 6th grade. I bought a bass and played it but then soon it became a dust collector. Then this year i was at a guitar hero party and i said this out loud to the whole party "screw 5 buttons I wanna do the real thing!" so went and bought me a strat and started messin' around not really doin' anything constructivefor the first four months. Then yesterday i was on ultimate guitar and saw Kristofer with his lesson. This guy blew me away with his skills and his teaching method. And I liked his personality and thought he was quite funny. . So right away I told my mom to put in the credit card number for guitarmasterclass so I could started right away. My goals are to improve in left hand quicknes in string changing and in all around playing, my other goal is to take over the lead part in my band . I know with the fine instuctors and the right practice I'll(we'll) get there. This site has already taught me so much in such little time. I would like to thank Kris and all the GMC staff for what they do here. Tremendous site

Hi and Welcome! And good choice to drop the bass since bass players and drummers are the laughing stock of a band.

Mine is close...

1. bait hook
2. cast line
3. Pop open beer
4. drink beer
5. repeat steps 3 and 4

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Jul 12 2007, 08:54 PM

That's almost there - make step 1 and 2 optional, and I'll be a convert

Welcome Dava, Im sure you will meet your goals in here with all this talent on board


I have to agree with Ice...I keep telling the wife that fly fishing or bass fishing is too much like work...just a good old worm and a bobber with alot of beer for me please

Welcome to GMC! Glad you picked up a real guitar(although Guitar hero II is pretty cool!)Nice avatar btw

Posted by: davaflava Jul 12 2007, 11:56 PM

thanks stratman,


I think we should request a fishing video lesson that would be way too cool.
btw, What kind of fish do u guys have over in Europ? Luckily I will be heading over to Germany next summer and I would love to fish for a day

p.s. i read "About Kris" and looked at his fish, holy h@$* that is the biggest perch i'ver ever seen, the ones here in good ol' Kansas may get up to a couple pounds or so. Although I havent seen a perch in a while, the wiper probably wiped them out.
