Before kids and uni I played in a little rock band in Newcastle called Four on the Floor and a duo called Rock Factor.

Now uni is nearly wound up I'm looking to get back into it...

Looking at the stage, that's me on the right...

Robbo - great work on the Guitar mate - The band is pretty tight - well done - I'd say the quality of the band is much higher than the quality of the dancing - but I'll give them high marks for enthusiasm...

Campfires, guitars and singing makes for a great night.

I play in a camp fire band with a mate of mine. Look us up on Facebook, Big Truck is our name. Had our first gig away from the camp fire late last year, was an awaesome experience.

Play a bit of Didg, circular breathing still the problem.

Me too SJ.  Also been playing guitar for a couple of years but really only on the cowboy chords.  Would love to pick up the circular breathing as I have a very good didge.  The sound of a didge in the bush around a campfire - magic. 

Any swaggers out there that teach Didge??  ;D  Mac

Yes, I'm an ex muso for a livingkinda guy  .... Been playing since I was 10. Have a nice little collection of guitars and amps and, and, and .... And a room dedicated as a studio with way too many toys accumulated over the last 40+yrs.

It's a great distraction .... When I'm not working, or camping .... Which means I don't get to play as much as I'd like too .... But last time we went camping I took a guitar with me (and I haven't done that in years).

I have wanted to play a musical instrument since I was young but never got around to it. Got into ukulele last year and am now playing. I now have 4 ukuleles, 1 banjo and two amps and loving the hell out of learning and playing.
Cheers

Very nice collection.

I've had a couple of guitars over the years but I have now settled on a Gibson SG with P90's.
This one isn't mine but it's the same colour/model


I play on my own at home just for fun. I'm not good or anything like that but the wife and kids don't mind.
I've got my youngest daughter stated now as well, she's learning fast. She wanted an accoustic but can't get her arms over a full dreadnaught size so we settled on a Fender Telecoustic, which is like an accousitc/telecaster hybrid. It's a little weird but a great guitar and sounds great through an amp. The body resonates ok when it's not plugged in.
