Give it another go Gnash. Good advice mate, I'm certainly no natural musician, but grafted to be able to play a bit... wrote a lot of songs and played some good events, festivals etc.... it was a great time, best buzz in the world when its going well..... feel like a c**t when it's not!! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
