   About Virtual Bettina


Hopefully, with Virtual Bettina, we can deliver a subtle blend of everything I've ever loved about music as an artform ... from simple melodies and structures to complex applications of harmony, technique and a slight progressiveness to stimulate the intellect as well as emotions.

Putting it simply, I just wanna plug in, crank-up and enjoy making a racket with my mates! :-)

Thanks for listening,



Paul Hanness is an experienced RGT-approved guitar tutor based in the South East London/Kent area (teaching all examination grades fully accredited by the London College of Music).

For enquiries or personal messages, please feel free to email Paul via the contact page of his personal website (see general info).

Hi Paul,
Wanted to let you know there is a new improv up from me. I am sure you can find a rough spot in it but I had fun doing something different and "foreign" to me. I went with a preprogrammed jazz rhythm then threw down a more outside Chord Progression than normal stuff I usually do and decided to stay with an edgy guitar sound. A bit eclectic for most I would think. But you know me....don't much care if it doesn't fit a "mold". :D
Take care and I hope you can tolerate this piece when you have time.
Donster ;)

ROCKWORKZ





May 18 2007 10:29 AM

Cheers to everyone that came down to BarMonsta to see us play there for the last time recently. It was a rocking night and a good way to end our residency there.

ROCKWORKZ will be back soon at our new venue, the Purple Turtle, Crowndale Rd, Camden, just next to Mornington Crescent tube station.

We'll be there every Sunday afternoon from July 8th, (time to be confirmed, but probably from 2pm till 6), featuring Men & Gods singer Marc Eden, who Slash called "one of the greatest Rock n' Roll singers I have ever heard", and Henry Rundell from Voodoo Six, who's been described as "the best voice to come out of the British music scene in the last 10 years", plus various members of Voodoo Six, Men & Gods, Crowning Glory, Cavalar, Zodiac Mindwarp and guests...

Playing Classic Rock from Audioslave and Alice in Chains to Zeppelin, via Purple, Sabbath, AC/DC, etc etc...

And it's FREE!

Not just a Rock
