Hi
I'm always slow at finding my way to these introduction sections...
Just started out on the guitar - I've been playing (mainly classical) piano since I was 8 (I'm now 29), heavily "burdened" with training in music theory...
Started as lead singer in a rock band a couple of years ago - we do a bit of original songs, but mainly covers of everything from The Doors and The Eagles over The Police to Dream Theater, Iron Maiden, Muse etc. etc. - pretty much anything we like. Hypermusic
Also play piano/keyboards when needed.
But having two guitar players in the band would be a great plus in a lot of the music we do. So I just began practicing it for real a few weeks ago - been wanting to do so since my teens. Hope to be able to make myself useful on that in a year or two (there's a long way to the playing ability of our guitarist). Plus it should give me something else to do while singing other than acting crazy
So, now have a Montego Black American Deluxe Strat and a Cherry Gibson Standard SG in the corner of my living room. Yes, they're supposedly "overrated cliches", yes, I love them
Favorite genres: Everything from classical (mainly romantic) music to metal, punk, jazz, blues - I listen to everything except rap and Danish oldies. Other interests than music: Waaaay too many to list - I'm a motorcycle nut, an NFL freak, study film and media studies, and work as a computer programmer (which means I spend no time on that in my free time).
I'll probably spend quite some time on the theory board - and post the occasional newbie question on the other boards. I'm very impressed with the quality of posts, and the atmosphere on this forum - hope to be able to add to that
Also, I have a way of stuffing my (overly long) posts with smileys - can't help it, so bear with me.
