Introduction
Hi, I dont think i've done one of these yet so thought i'd fill you guys in on who i am.
I am a 23 year old guy Originally from Liverpool, UK but now live in sunny North Wales, UK. There's not much to do where i live because its a seaside town and everything shuts up between seasons and only get to enjoy the amusements and whatever through the summer, in summer my town is the coolest place to be, lots of people and always different people coming and going for their holidays but then when winter hits it turns into a ghost town, not a sole in sight, not suprised tho, you go out round here on a windy day in winter and all you get is a face full of sand from the beach, i live about 5 minute walk from the beach and the amount of sand and starfish we see down out street is unbeleivable, (i dont think the ind brought the star fish but still lol) im glad i moved up here tho I have had some of the best times of my life around my town and wouldnt change it for anything. Im currently inbetween doing a few jobs at the moment to pay for the big splash out around christmas and new year. I design and produce inflatable toys for kids, ie, bouncy castles, sumo suits, jello wrestling pools etc, its a boring job at times but once you've made ur finished product and you get to test them out with the other guys at work then that's a different matter hahaha. I also do decorating and minor d.i.y for a friends family run building buisness where i live and i love it. Being somwhere different everyday day and not knowing what the day will bring and the guys at work are just the coolest people to be around (except all you 8Ballers lol). Inbetween the 2 jobs i also do a little work on friends websites, updating and maintaining them where possible. His main website is a message forum for people all over the world to get together and talk about things in relation to Liverpool and the surrounding areas, its not just for people who have been to Liverpool or have lived there, they have members from all over the world, usa, australia, europe etc. If any of you guys want to check it out then heres the website but please use responsibly as it is mainly an over 18 forum, although younger people can join up too if they act reasonably.... The Scouse House! Forum With what little free time i do get i like to sit back and chill out with my guitar or sat at the computer playing snooker with the great guys ive gotten to know on 8baller. I have been playing my guitar for about 4 years or so, on and off and at first i couldnt even hold the thing properly lol, it took me about 5 mins to try and get my fingers to stay on certain chords and as you can see by my pic the chord shape dosnt look the best lol, but even still, that didnt stop me from sitting there for hours on end practising till the ends of my fingers started to bleed but i assure you im a little better now ...I have got a few tunes that ive recorded and will attempt to post them on this thread, if you guys like what you hear i'll do some more.As some of you have probably already seen i have applied for a Moderator position with 8Baller and ive done this purely because i beleive i can bring things to 8baller to make it more exciting and enjoyable and hopefully reccomend the site to anyone n everyone and get some more members to join up and experience what 8baller is all about. If theres anything you guys wanna know about me or think ive missed anything off please feel free to ask, i wont bite ![]() Sorry guys but 8baller wont let me upload sound files to a thread so had to do it through a file sharing site, if you want to listen you have to click and download tune, there is no registering or nothing, just click and download....I Hope you like....Enjoy!! ![]() Goodbye Blue Sky,Anybody Out There.mp3 Solo blues.mp3 Wish You Were Here.mp3 ![]() |

Wow Mr. G Chord
..very nice intro! U described my hometown, only we don't have sand there. Thanks for reminding me how nice it was to live there. I actually loved the winter time better..no chaos as it can get during the summer..just the beauty of the place and familiar ppl. You play very gd too..u should put some more coz its very refreshing to hear something like that on the site. I even sang the 3rd one while listening. Its one of my fav songs btw. Once again good luck with the mod position!

RE: Introduction
WOW!! Cool, i goto Llandudno all the time, i live in Rhyl at the moment tho and over the years it has just turned into a dive tho, they have taken all the fairgrounds away to make new car parks and all the prom now looks like Baghdad lol. Its as if a big bomb has just gone off and they havnt bothered to clean it up lol. But Llandudno is still a nice place to go to get away for the day or the weekend, not sure if youve heard of it but in Penrhyn Bay (Angel Bay) there is some 'great' views from the tops of the cliffs looking out over the whole of the coastline, i could happily get a tent and live up there if i could haha!
Im glad your daughter likes what i play that is how i got into playing myself, through watching my friend and found it really relaxing and chilled out. If your daughter is a beginner then the 3rd song is definately a tune to learn, sounds great and dosnt take that long to learn how to play. I taught myself how to play it in a couple of weeks with no lessons and was rather proud when i heard it back for the first time and im sure your daughter will do too Best of luck to her on the hard road to fame lol, many hours of soar and bleeding fingers to come im sure hahaha
