    Default Newbie saying hello

    Hi everybody my name is Chris I’m 38 and I come from a small town called Ioannina in Greece.
    I enjoy every kind of good music but blues gives me the shivers and love everything that has to do with guitars.
    I found out about this place from my good friend elavd (thanks Elias) and I enjoyed the good vibe I took while reading your discussions, so here I am.

    Hi Chris. It's nice to see the Greek wing growing.

    By the way, how do you pronounce Demeter


    1) Duh meter (like duh meter is broken and ate my quarter)
    2) dimiter (to rhyme with limiter)

    ??
