Hi ,

Had a good night at the Burnside Club in Fence House, meet a few more members of both clubs and really enjoyed it, some great music and vocals too. A good night so why not pop a long if your local and take a look and meet some like minded people

It also gave me a great chance to show my bad finger off, for those that weren't their I will try a post a picture of the offending finger

If your squeamish look away now !

Thanks to all the members of the Burnside Club for making me so welcome last night. Enjoyed the music and the chat about keyboards. I did think that drilling a hole through a finger was a bit OTT as a means of avoiding playing!

Hi Keith,

Enjoyed meeting you at the club last night and hope you become a regular once time permits
The finger is fine this morning also and send its regards LOL.

Brian

Hi all
Ooh that finger did look sore ,well forgive you not playing, you're first on turn next month.

Hi Georgeandmarj,

I would like to think it will be sorted by then and will willingly have a bash

Brian

Hi All,

Just thought that I would let you know that my visit to the Burnside Club helped clarify my thoughts reference acquiring a keyboard. I had thought that I might go for a Tyros 5 TRX system but Monday night made me realise that this would duplicate my Roland AT800 set up rather than adding portability which was the whole point. Not having internal speakers would make the Tyros a pain for my purposes. Having looked at both the Yamaha and the Korg offerings I have decided to go for the Korg PA900. I shall be sorry to see my Viscount Empire Theatre Organ go but I just do not have the space in my music room to add another instrument. Will let you know when it arrives and try to learn how to play it for my next visit to the Club.

Keith

Hi Keith,
Seems like a good choice to me.
Korg are great once you learn korg language.
Brian

Hi there Keith and Brian pleased you enjoyed your night out would like to see you again cheers my friends.

Hi All,

My Korg PA900 was delivered yesterday evening. I am trying to get over not using my foot and having just one board. I am challenging myself to post a tune in the challenge section over the long weekend.

Keith

Delivered yesterday evening ???? by gum that was quick
no messing about our time wasting with you then young man

There are loads of tutorials on youtube if you get stuck on anything
enjoy it, as Iam sure I would

Brian

Hi Everyone. Just got back from holiday had a good time. Glad you all had a goodnight and hope to see you on Monday. Brian rap the finger up well and you should be okay. Kieth see you got some support about the choice of keyboard. All the best John

HI Keith,
Congrats mate, great keyboards to play, and look forward to your challenge post. ATB jackoj.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have watched the videos but things are slow to stick to the grey matter these days so I can see that this is going to be a slow process!

Keith

Hi Keith,
While I'm no expert yet on Korg keyboards as yet please feel free to pm me if there's anything your stuck on no mater
How small or trivial it may seem.

Brian

Thanks for the offer Brian. Making sense of recording is giving problems at the moment but will persevere before calling in the emergency services!

Keith

I have just found what was giving me some problems - the screen was not calibrated properly so some things were not working properly. That is now sorted so hopefully progress will be made.

Keith

Ah well that's what happens when you buy these fancy touch screen keyboards LOL
Nothing wrong with good a old fashioned knobs ( sorry should have said buttons )

Brian

Have finally put a recording in the 50's Challenge. Will try a bit of country next.

Keith

Country song done and dusted. Now what about gardens?
