Welcome itdan and Glenn. It is good to have you with us. If you have any questions, just ask. There are many great musicians here that will be happy to help you. When you have a chance, check out the groups. I'm sure there will be at least a few to appeal to your musical tastes.

Welcome, itdan. If this aussie influx continues Neil and Matt with have to open up an Australia branch.

Great to have you on board. Actually one of the great things about TG is the international flavor.

HI itdan and Glenn, Welcome to TG, tovo mentions joining the Aussie Group so as you have more members than the Kiwi site is interesting, but when you think about it you need 4 to = our 1; so go for it lads and lassies! Serious though its a great site and Neil and the newer members of the faculty make this the best tuition site on the net, whether a beginner or an old hand .

I am so tempted to talk about the Bledisloe cup but that might not be fair... Oh what the heck!! (For all those foreigners this is an Annual Rugby competition between the two countries)

Records

Most titles won:

1. New Zealand - 37 (including 1931)
2. Australia - 12

Longest time held by Australia: 5 years (1998-2002) (5 Titles)

Longest time held by New Zealand: 27 years (1951-1978) (12 Titles)

I guess itdan just might be an Aussie Rules follower, now that is a strange game to watch, if the Yanks here don't understand Rugby they have no show with Aussie Rules!!
