Axe2Grind Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 Hi all, I've just signed up here and looking forward to contributing to this forum. I've been playing electric guitar on and off for a few years, also play keyboards too, just a bedroom hack, nothing serious. I'm based in Essex, UK and can't believe I missed this forum lol, looks very cool. 1 Quote

Andyibanez Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 It’s really quiet! Why the recording section isn’t getting stuff posted multiple times a day is beyond me! Quote

An incentive, such as a monthly 'challenge' to see who can compose a piece, inspired, maybe, by a picture or photo, with a vote at end of month..? The compo that gets the most votes from Forum members gets to choose the pic for the next Challenge, perhaps..? Nah, it could never work..! Quote

Expand I find it bizarre that some peoples videos have thousands of views but only 5 comments. So won’t hold my breath for anyone bothering to rate it! Normal for YouTube I’d say, but not on a dedicated guitar forum it’s weird nobody responds. I like your idea however, Id love that, i have a WhatsApp group among friends where we do like “half hr challenge” it’ll be something simple like the intro to bombtrack for example, or the 3rd solo in I believe in a thing called love, it’s great fun.

Expand Not my idea at all; it's been ongoing over there on Basschat for about ten years or so..! We don't do videos, though, just Soundcloud audio. A modest clique of regulars, but it keeps on going, so it must be doing something right. Quote
