Hi midimart members
My name is Alan a redundant bass player from Northern Ireland.
What a great site.I have been a gigging musician for 30 odd years
Stopped playing recently due to family commitments but still keep
in touch with my muso mates as I enjoy working on midi files using Cakewalk.Remixes,fadeouts etc.

Hi Alan
Welcome to the forum.
Yep it's a great place to communicate with other Muso's and your input can only make it better.
There are lot's of members from N.I. in fact from all parts of Ireland and maybe even some know personally.
Enjoy.

Hi Alan..welcome to the house...I live in Coleraine...Play mostly country....do you not think that there is room for a good KickA** Country band to rival the 'showbands' that are doing the Irish dance hall circuit?...

Hi Shanless
A good driving country band is hard to beat in this part of the world.
Played country with an outfit called Mel Tarner and Wildwood in the 80's.
Great times.In those days bands where well looked after at their gigs.

Hi themd21
It's good to find another Belfast man the same age as myself.
At first I thought the site might be full of young guys only.
Still trying to get the hang of posting replys.

Hi rosybud1956/Lyn
Thanks for the Aussie welcome.
Funny,I have a friend called Lyn who lives in Brisbane born the same year as you.
Cheers
Alan...

[rosybud1956]

Hi Alan, You're welcome. Is your friend involved with the 'music world' too? What part of Brisbane is she? I'm 'bout 40-50 mins car drive away from the heart of Bris. Lyn

Hi Lyn
No I don't think she's musical and I'm not sure which part of Brisbane she is living.She and her
husband (also called Alan) called to see me last summer when they where on holiday in N.Ireland.Her family emigrated to Australia about 1970 and I had not seen Lyn since we where
young teenagers.Her parents live in Perth and her brother is a pastor in Melbourne.I think Lyn's husband is a teacher.I suppose he couldn't get much further from the In-Laws...

Alan.

Hi Alan and welcome from me to to the mad house. It does me heart good to see the whole of Ireland so well represented on the forum, but being Irish I would say that, wouldn't I.

Anyway Alan you'll fit in the finest here and if you have any questions or whatnot just holler

Enjoy your visits.
