Topic: Well I woke up this morning...

...and was surrounded by the snow!

Same  yesterday, and the day before, and...

They say he global warming is happening, but I can prove otherwise. By looking out my window.

I live in Finland, I found this fanclub while I was searching for what the cool effect is that Joe uses in the Blues DeLuxe, you know the one where his LP sounds like an organ or something. Stumbled upon here, and found this amazing place...I mean JB is actually participating here, that's like the coolest thing I have ever witnessed in web! Huge respect!

Otherwise, I'm a struggling beginning guitarist (well I've been a beginner for four years now...) I started at the age of 38, am now 42, and still can't play much. But that's not the point, I enjoy the thing and do it just to please myself, not so mch others smile

I play Gibson LP standard 2008, the chambered asymmetrical neck one, and love it. Desert burst, no pics atm. Gotta admit I've een drooling for Fenders also, but for some reason I have been a Gibson person from the very first glance I laid  at those things. The amp is Fender Blues Junior.

I'm a wiseass, confrontation kind of person, but despite of that I never mean harm to anyona and always respect the opinions of others.


As for JB, I just "found" him from a magazine review of The Ballad Of JH, and been a fan since.



I'm not very regular in my appearances on any web forum,but here I'll definitely will be joining whenever I have time.

Basically now you know all about me, and I don't need to post anything anymore smile

Cheers,

psy

Hello Psy,

Great that you joined in here all the way from snowy, cold Finland! We have snow enough here in Holland but where not in Europe.
You'll find out this is a great place to be with great people from all around the world and I must say: they have great taste in music. You will learn a lot about otherbands as well.

Enjoy your stay here and keep posting and spread the word!

Re: Well I woke up this morning...

Welcome Psy, you now have many friends from all over the world. I recently returned from northern Germany and will give testimony to the brutal cold Europe is experiencing this winter.
Hope the warm glow from this forum helps. Post often.

Hey Psy

WELCOME

I know just what you mean about the playing.
I have tried and tried and tried.......but I don't think I'll ever get beyond the basic chords and pentatonic !!
I play a Les Paul as well. Just holding it is a pleasure.
I've also got a Strat.

Hope to see you posting.

I thought you lost your shoes wink Wouldn't be nice with all that snow.
Those things can happen, my friend could tell something about that lol

In Germany it's also snowing, but I think in Sweden there should be more of this frozen water.

A warm welcome from Germany and wish you a great time here in the forum

Re: Well I woke up this morning...

Thank you very much for the warm welcomes everyone!

Sissi, didn't loose shoes fortunately, so no walking blues smile

Suzanne, thanks for the tavastia tip, sold out in 2 hours apparently. Didn't make their online shop on time sad Got mad about that and bought tickets for me & Mrs psy to Stockholm event instead, so happy end smile

Romans8, thanks! already do!

Ges, were in the same rut apparently... I ordered the Blued DeLuxe tab book (Signed edition  cool ), suggest the same for you if you don't have that already... surprisingly accessible stuff for intermediate level also, given how virtuoso the Joe record is! A lick here & there are quite manageable, and good fun to play-

RickB, Andre, Thanks, although we are  used to cold winters here up north, this is the long time record year for us too. It's been below -30 on several occasions. Atm not that bad otherwise, but snow situation begins to be too much even for us big_smile

Pete the Cabby, my kind of bird there big_smile

See you  later!
