    Default I'm new here, hello.

    Well, I already know Brian Krashpad. I post as "Minitruth" in other places.
    I'm 44, been playing about a year. I'm an oddball, because I only write
    original material. I'm not good, but I play several hours a day- Hopefully I'll
    get a bit good sometime soon. I might try to learn one cover, though. Syd
    Barrett's "Vegetable Man" sort of reached me. I have a lot of cheapo guitars
    and gear, so laugh at me now. How am I doing so far?

    If I was good, I'd say "yes" but the truth is that the learning curve for
    guitar, bass, keyboard, Vox, recording and all the technical stuff for
    each, all at once is really steep.

    BwaAAAHHAaahahHahahaa, hooo boy you unkill me!

    Any friend of Syd Barrett (not to mention Brian Krashpad) is a friend of mine.

    I've been playing for about a year and a half & am about your age. Several hours a day?! That's fantastic. Writing your own stuff? I'm very impressed.

    Welcome!
