Hi, I am Aaltsje, il from Holland and don't speak englisch very well.
I am try learn to play the gitar and hope find here something that can help me.
It looks good till so far.

Hi Aaltsje, welcome to the forum on TG. Chasplaya usually is first to welcome but he's asleep in New Zealand! How's the weather in NL, hot like in CH? You have come to the right place. Maybe willem can help you with the language. I understand about 30% Dutch as I speak Swiss and High German... so if I can help let me know....

...if that's no help, AndyT is fluent in Hawiian.
I know this doesn't translate so well into Dutch but at least it's a welcome!
Here's a message from sleeping Chas and his countrymen in welcome for you:

I think I'm going to model my guitar face on that...

ROTFLMBO!
Too funny you guys. That dance is a warriors challenge. And its from Tahiti.

Welcome Aaltsje,
Zorgvuldig ben hier van gekke pret terwijl het leren gitaar.

Hey Aaltsje, Welcome to TG, its a great site and lots to learn. The Haka Chris put up on behalf is coincidentally one from the town where i actually work , this one is a celebratory dance not a Warrior challenge as Andy stated. This is done to congratulate students on Graduation day and is conducted by the local Iwi (tribe/clan). The Warrior challenge is more like the following one, the differences are sometimes very slight. This one is the one the NZ All Blacks use before a Rugby test match, originating from one of the greatest maori chiefs ever , Te Rauparaha.




And PS we don't all run round in little grass skirts either.

Welcome Aaltsje,

Andy you just asked Aaltsje to marry your guitar.....

LMAO!!

@CHas re the Haka: That is just too funny! Did they all duck out of Shrek IV?

Welcome Aaltsje! Thanks for saying hello. I don't speak your native tongue, but hopefully the music all translates......
