Hi all
Im from Melbourne Aus...im 40 yrs old,started playing drums at 11,then guitar when i was 18.I played in a few bands in my twenties,mainly rythm guitar then stopped playing for 10 yrs or so.
Now my 12 yr old son is playing,so ive been teaching and learning with him,so this site is a godsend...(working on Classical Gas atm)
So thanks for the great site Neil,youve given me the spark to play again...cheers !!!!!

Welcome mate to the forum! We're glad to have another Aussie with us to keep Matt, Tony, Michele and several others company! For some reason Chas, our token Kiwi Scotsman, likes to poke fun at the Aussies. Something about the Land of Oz not being very good at rugby or some such game! Doesn't make much sense to us Yanks but it sure leads to a spitited debate!! LOL!

Just teasing but a big welcome anyway from where they play real football! :silly:

G'day mate and welcome to the site. Good people here and it's a very supportive environment. You might want to join the TG Australia group, just so we have more members than the Kiwis! ;-)

Andy, given that the population of California alone is nearly double that of Australia we still have some work to do...

Welcome from N. California. Glad you found TG. I am, it made a lot of difference in my life. I started playing again after 30 years thanks to Neil's teaching and the TG site. Gary
