NEWS   I got this message on jsguitarforum.com a while ago, was thinking about it today and thought... wel, lets quote it here:

Quoting Midwest Empty
So, I work in a high school that caters to 16-22 year olds (not as a teacher, thank God) and one of the teachers there is always walking around singing some random song. He sent me an IM screaming for help, that he had some crap song stuck in his head. I had just downloaded some stuff from your soundclick and sent it to him. I could hear his class rocking it out for a good two hours. Everyone loved it, and actually stopped screwing around and fighting to listen.
Keep it coming. It's making my day a whole lot smoother.
Nothing special, just posting some pieces and ideas to find out if there are people out there that like them.
I'm a sucker for Slow blues and ballads, so that is what you will find here.

Besides a couple of full song attempts, a lot of my stuf is experimental

With the thought in mind that 'Less is more' I played this one. Leaving lots of space for this beautiful backing track
Why this name?
I'm blind on one eye and a lefty, so..... that one was easy
Do you play live?
Nope, not yet.... still.......
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It should make music more distributable :-) Now I don't have to force people to listen, they have a choice.

About the Internet: Take a look at http://www.jimmyg.us The website of an artist that I have deep respect for !

.......
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
They won't ask anyway
Band History:
At the age of ~12 me and my parents were told in a local music store that since I'm left handed, I couldn't play the guitar (Yes they believed it). The result was I didn't get a guitar. In stead I got an accordion. I actually had lessons for2 or 3 years.
Afterwards I sold the accordion and bought me a right handed guitar. At first I tried to play right handed but that didn't work for me. I changed the string order to lefty and there it started.

When I was in my 30's I finally bought me my first real left handed guitar, A used ' 83 Tokai goldstar Strat. That was the time I started making real progression.

I still have and love the Tokai Goldstar.

Equipment used:
Fender Cybertwin SE amp
Epiphone Dot
Tokai Goldstar Strat
Greg Bennet steelstring
Rodriguez Cabalero 11
Boss RC2 Loopstation
Computer with a Emu 0404 soundcard
