Well, I believe work has got the best of me these days. I am findng it hard to make time to sit down...LOL! I am going to make time this weekend to lay some tracks down.

I'll keep you guys posted.

 

PEACE~!

Well, I finally decided to get off my butt and purchase an Acoustic pick up off of Ebay! Now I can throw down some mello tracks with a crisp clear sound. Previously I was using a desktop mic....NOT GOOD! Thats why they never made it to Indaba......... So keep your eyes and ears peeled, I will be laying down some acoustic tracks in the very near future! Peace my fellow musicians!! Phil

Well, I am just sitting at work trying to listen to 2 auditions. Unfotunately, my Company uses DSL and it is taking forever. So I guess I will have to wait till I get home. I am really enjoying the Indaba world. This is GREAT stuff! I am making a lot of new friends. It makes me think back to the days where it was the same four or five guys hitting the studio a couple of nights a week with plenty of beer and cigarettes to last those BIG 2 hours of studio time playing the same style of music. I found that with Indaba my musical preference changes viewing different artists on the site. I was born and bred a metal head but since the inception of this site that has all changed. I am trying to come up with more folk music than I ever have before as well as dabbling in the "Techno Field" (Storm Williams happens to be one of my favorites on Indaba, he kicks ass!) I really have to thank Mantis Evar for introducing me to Indaba. I met Mantis through my sister inlaws husband Brian who has been a friend of Mantis for many years (Or related, not sure). Well it turns out that Brian was doing some home repairs for Mantis and needed some help so he asked me to go with him. After laying some brick face in the living room I was shown the studio that Mantis has and when I tell you I almost wet my pants, I almost did! But that was how I met Mantis. GREAT GUY! Looking forward to working with him in the future. Well thats all I have for now. Gotta get back to work. Peace! Phil

Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Phil. I am from New Hyde Park, NY. I have been playing guitar for over 30 years. I love to write and record my own material. Indaba is going to be a hit. I love the layout and what it has to offer. Great job!
