I do appreciate your requests but please understand that there at least should be a slight reason for a contact.
I do not just collect contacts for no reason and consider it a courtesy to drop a few words if you wish to be added in my contactlist. Thank you.
So now, before I start telling something about me - I've seen so many good musicians, good songs - I'd say enough for the whole world and still too many good musicians who are not listened to as they would deserve when you consider their creativity, skills, voices a.s.o. I'm really stunned and hope for everybody that he or she'll come a bit closer to their dreams and have people hear their music.
What you can hear on myspace is MY music. The song SLOW DANCE is based on a poem by Mr. David Weatherford - words which are very deep and touching. This poem went around the world as a hoax spam mail, so I took it since it touched me. with the kind permission of the poet, Mr. David Weatherford. Please take a look at his website for much more wonderful lyrics: www.davidlweatherford.com
Ok, 'bout me in a few words: -
I was raised with music, started with piano lessons on my mum's piano at the age of 6 which I stopped at the age of 9 since it didn't impress the girls enough. So at 10 or so I started with the guitar and ever since played this instrument. My love for it increases with the age and the changing playing style.
I played in many bands but decided not to live and depend on music after I had earned money with a coverband in American clubs during my time at the university. So I went into business, did quite well and never stopped playing guitar and composing my own music.
Its always after some time when one asks oneself the question of meaning - My answer to it was that I'll focus more on music again and share my tunes with people who like it. I produce my songs in my small studio or in a friend's studio and sometimes play gigs. Target ist to increase the number of gigs and airplays of my songs and gather a small group of people who like my music. I started with music - I'll end with it :-)
So you can hear some results of what I do here on myspace. If you like it I'm happy - if you don't - just forget it :-)
I'd be glad if you left a comment if you particularly dislike or like some of my work :-). More songs will follow.
the great Mark Knopfler (my favorite guitar player), pOOkah, Steph MacLeod, John McColm
and many more great musicians, but Mark is outstanding for his harmonies, the way he plays a.s.o. - ok, the others as well :-))
I wasn't sure on that - I'm new to dobros so I know nothing but what I've gotten from surfing... but I'm loving the tone of it - I named him Eugene. He sounds like a Eugene.
Neither - China - still getting comfortable with it - the action's a little higher, but not so high that the tuning's nasty... I thought the hound dog's used spider bridges? This one's a single cone biscuit reso - lovely tone...
Hallo Stefan, heut ist mein Ruhetag.... den will ich gerne in der Sauna mit angenehmer Gesellschaft verbringen, allerdings müssen halt auch wichtige Dinge auf der Homepage aktualisiert werden.... grins. Bis Samstag im Big Mama...... Gruß Gerd
"To awaken each morning with a smile brightening my face, to greet the day with reverence for the opportunities it contains; to approach my work with a clean mind; to hold ever before me, even in the doing of little things, the ultimate purpose toward which I am working; to meet men and women with laughter on my lips and love in my heart; to be gentle, kind, and courteous through all the hours; to approach the night with weariness that ever produces sleep and the joy that comes from work well done--that is how I desire to waste wisely my days."
Ouzo? In ner Flasche ;-) Nein, das geht ganz offiziell, musst nur vorher zum Tierarzt für Chip, Pass und evtl. Impfungen und dann kommt's auf's Gewicht und die Airline an...
Someone, somewhere Dreams of your smile And while thinking of you Knows life is worthwhile, So whenever you're lonely Remember it's true: Someone's always thinking of you!
