    Hi all.

    I'm new here!

    I play guitar and sing, you can hear me on www.markgreville.com, if you are interested.

    Oh, some ^&%$ has hacked my guestbook. Any ideas on how to stop this happening (its the third time)

    Thanks

    Mark.

    Hi. Thanks for the reply.

    Correct, its just a standard guestbook, no registration.

    I am a windows apps developer, so my website skills may be a little on the short side.

    What do you suggest for the site?

    Thanks

    Mark.

    For the site I suggest something that truly expresses your music and you. PM me to see some of my work ;)

    For the guestbook, basically you want to use something like phpBB. Make sure your password for the administrator accounts are at least a 2nd level password, numbers and letters and capital and lowercase...

    I used to play Keyboard. Played trumpet for a few years when I was younger :D

    back on topic:

    i started out on alto sax. hurt my teeth, so i gave up on school band after a year.
    after that, i started on a bit of piano, and it annoyed everyone.

    moved to guitar. classical at first. then i discovered the joy of the plectrum. (that's a pick for the rednecks)

    started getting good with the 6 string, and decided that i should have a bass also - thats what i always really wanted.
    my best friend at the time was a percussionist - second snare in our marching band as a freshman. he started teaching my the rudiments. changed my life.
    after that i stared in on percussion, sampling, and effects. spent a few years running boards for my friend's bands. mixed down some demos, became "cable bitch" - and never really got involved with people that i could play well with and that were reliable enough to stay active.

    kind of dropped out of that scene, started mixing d&b and techno for fun.

    i guess i'm more of a producer/engineer than a musican.

    looking into buying a 6 string soon - developing a bit of carpal tunnel in the left hand, and a tingle in the pinky. supposedly playing is good for that.

    I have played piano for about 10 years now (since I was 5 ish). I've done the ABRSM Grade 5 and will do 6 in Nov. Right now I'm learning to play Bohemian Rhapsody.

    I have also been playing flute for 4 and a half years in the school band. We got second place in UK at a Manchester festival a couple of years ago (before I joined, unfortunately).
