Greetings from Hempstead.
I recently started visiting GN and was impressed with the generally positive attitude of the community. The lessons and forum discussions have helped me make progress in my knowledge and skills. I registered with hopes of contributing back to this great resource.

Welcome to GuitarNoise, WyleSmyde! Wow! I got to welcome 2 Texans in one day! That's never happened before! :D I also welcomed new member Bungee41 - from Dallas!

There are beginning to be quite a few of us here! :D Isn't Hempstead somewhere near Katy? I'm from the DFW area (Weatherford, to be precise).

We look forward to seeing you around the forums!

Welcome to GN. We get many more in our area and we'll have to talk them Northeasterners to come down and put on a GN jam.

Thanks 'kevinbatchelor77'. I really like Arkansas. I'm trying to re-visit the Ozark Highland's Trail as soon as time permits.

'Elecktrablue' / Jim, I too noticed there were quite a few Texans listed. It's a great state. Hempstead is about 20 mi. north of Katy. And yeah, a 'Texas Jam' would be awesome.

Glad to be part of the community

Welcome to GN, WyleSmyde!

Should be enough Texans here now for a real kickin' jam - although I'm a Brit, I've been to Texas and LOVED it! Hope to go back one day.

:D :D :D

Thanks Vic. I appreciated the advice in many of your posts

Boa, One could spend a week touring Texas and miss a lot. Thanks for the welcome.

Welcome to GN WyleSmyde. :D
Enjoy your stay.

All my life I wanted to be somebody. Now I see I should have been more specific.

Thanks Dan, Nuno, UrbanCowgirl, and Bish. I listened in on a recent jam some of you guys put together. It was really good.

I look forward to hearing the one you are organizing, Dan.

... it's great to be here. Now if I could just settle on an Avatar.

:)

I dunno - people sort of drift away, find new interests, etc. I don't go on MSN too much these days - I find it very counter-productive. I can spend HOURS yakking away on there while I should be writing/playing/practising/recording etc.

I have spoken to Twisted Fingers fairly recently - he's alive and well and living in Illinois.

:D :D :D

Welcome to GN Wyle.

I also like Texas. Shawn Micheals is from San Antonio and Steve Austin made 'Texas Rattlesnake' famous in the WWF. Eddie Guerrero (who is now dead :() is from El Paso, Texas.

As for your avatar, I think 'Wyle Coyote' should be the best one. :wink:
