I've been playing with the Cambridge Guitar Orchestra for just over a year now. Today, I officially became their electric guitarist. There is a very rough recording of Beck's Bolero on my PC to evidence the fact and if you don't behave yourselves I'll make you listen to it bwaaaaaahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa.

C'mon
Let's give it a hear.
Upload it someplace and give us the link.

Congrats!

OK, ok, the next Cambridge Guitar Orchestra is in two weeks' time - I'll fix my guitar's "slightly sharp" intonation at the 12th fret and get a decent amount of practise time in. This week is the half term holiday in UK schools and I have to rehearse for a solo concert next Monday so I'll be doing a lot of recording and I'll put a load of stuff to listen to online at the weekend.
