Hi from the Great White (wet) North
Hi I am messaging (& practicing ) from North Vancouver BC. I have been playing guitar for over 20 something years on and off. I took my 1st lesson when I was about 12. I loved The Who back then and I was all about playing Pinball Wizard! Anyway my tastes have diversified since then but I still love the classic rock. My main influences are The Dead, Dylan, Led Zeppelin, Ben Harper, Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, that type of stuff. I only play acoustic and have 2 guitars so I can keep one in a dropped tuning for easy access. Blah, Blah, ....anyway super psyched to finally be improving and learning new things again.....I am becoming obsessed! Beaker.

Welcome Beaker!
Good to have you here. Like Bear mentioned, your musical tastes will fit in nicely around here. You should have a lot of fun. Look forward to hearing from you more in the forums. Also, make sure you check out the groups as well, as there is a lot of good stuff over there as well.

Man, all you guys from up in Canada. That is great! Although, you should all try on Southern Cali for the weather..... Down here in Ventura, our average year round temp is about 68 - 74 degrees F. Avg. rainfall is about 14-17 inches. Sunny and mild is just fine for me. However, we do not have "Seasons" which can be a bit of a bummer sometimes. Christmas at the beach!!!!!!!!
Cheers!
