steve...arundel west sussex uk
ok..I is late forties been playing on and off for pleasure around 20 yrs ...never had lessons just self teaching...now i would like to go a little further and develop the full range of skills..just found this site by browsing liked the easy to follow teachings
i play 12 strings ..strung at the momment to 6..to help with the fingering skills..insead of hit an miss style that was kinda of a bad habit for me
I like all music generes..but more at home with rythm such as beatles..carpenters...animals...love to learn some clever little rifts such as the one demonstrated on the wild horses tutorial
to be able to play along to most things i hear..maybe join some other musicians
ok..I am a roofer ..but currently focusing on self building houses for ourselves...I am married have 2 boys..the older one is twenty..and a competent guitarist..i showed him some basics and look what happens...Grrr!!..younger boy is 17 and studying performing arts..he is a dancer and wants to be in the west end and broadway..so i guess music is in the blood
apart from the usual mid life crisis stuff like motor bikes and boats..i like to walk to keep trim as poss..gets harder every year!!..lol
Introducing stevetheroofer to Totally Guitars
Hi Steve and welcome from Colorado. Thanks for sharing what your life is like. I always find that so interesting. Don't be a stranger to the forum, and have a great time with all the material that is available here. Make sure you check out the Target program as well. Many of us are self taught and it has been great for us to actually have as good a teacher as Neil available to us 24x7. Have fun, and let us know if any of us can help you. Izzy
Warm welcome from the Netherlands Steve,,i think you find your way here and you can run with many midlife songs,,well we try them again,, i for example discover the beatles (in my twenty's i was more a rollingstone),,,when you join target,,well man you gonna sell your bike..

Welcome to TG Steve, Good decision to join us here, next step is the TARGET programme, thats where all the really good stuff is and you won't regret it. Its great to read the extra bits some people put in, you know occupations family stuff. Adds that extra dimension making this site even more homely and safe. Also a bit of a database when we need jobs done and can find someone to shoulder tap when we need some help with a job lol! When your next in New Zealand I have some roofing tiles need replacing...
Enjoy the site mate lots to keep you busy here.
