I also have to put some effort into explaining things succinctly, tend to ramble a lot. I do have a background in IT, starting back when it was fairly new. I learned COBOL in Vo Tech using an IBM Model 4 mainframe. It was tube based with a 4 KB magnetic core memory unit. I've punched thousands of Hollerith cards. It all exploded so quickly it was amazing. My other, and most fervent, interest was the puberty of RocknRoll into Rock and was fortunate enough to live through it. I have a site, MusicFor.Us, where I'm trying to document the songs and artists that inspired what came after. Mainly the late '50's through the '70's. I also own PaddysPub here and on old Voat where I submit shorter snippets with songs from the era. My screenname is COF (not a fan of this name changing lately). I also am the archivist for the FNGT and one of the hosts. I played drums and a little guitar back in bar bands back in the '70's but time and age has drastically slowed me down. So now I try to keep the younger crowd playing and interested where it began. We've had the FNGT as a way to do that and have done it *every* Friday night for almost 4 years now. It starts every Friday night at 8pm et in s/guitar and we welcome every musician to share the music they make. We've had a multitude of instruments over the years from banging on pots and pans to bagpipes, kalimbas, marimbas, vocalists, and of course guitars. Some people are performing pro's and others who are just sitting around enjoying and having fun playing what they want. Drop by sometime.
