Hello...
« on: February 23, 2007, 02:12:35 PM »
Hey everyone.  I've been registered here for a little while but hadn't jumped in until now, so I figured I'd introduce myself... my name is Mike, and I'm a bass-o-holic, then end.  ;D

I started playing the upright in my elementary school orchestra after my paws got to big for the violin.  Once I got to high school, I was 'drafted' into the jazz band (my teacher probably would have had me in there whether I wanted to be or not!) and had fun with that, but after HS I didn't have the time to continue.

Fast forward 10+ years later, moved from Detroit to Austin, and I'm back on it again.  I was hiding behind headphones at home for the longest, afraid that I wasn't up to it, but started playing in church late last year.  Best thing I could have done, nothing better than doing something you love and enjoy for the glory of God!

And of course, here's my baby:  Roscoe LG3005 #4599

You can find me online at Myspace, Yahoo! 360° and Messenger (midnight_jazz), and now here and LGM. 

I hope to learn a lot from you guys!

First off, to be part of LGM you must donate your current instrument to the first replier of your post.  So that's me.  You can send that Roscoe to...SIKE!!!  Welcome to the forum.  I hope that we conduct ourselves in a manner that you will come back and visit with us again. ;D ;D ;D
Keep God first and he'll do the rest!!!

LOL!  Don't worry, I'll be a regular around here.  And as far as getting my Roscoe, you can only get it pried.  From my hands.  Cold, dead hands.  LOL

Thanks for the kind words, guys!

LB: Yeah, I'm not even sure what made me start out with the violin, but it worked out in the end.

For me, I remember the music teacher came to my 4th grade class asking if anyone was interested in learning.  So I jumped on that.  I'm so glad I did.   :)
