My turn, since I've already posted a few times since finding this forum this week (can't believe it goes back to 2000 - how did it take me 4 years to find it?!).
Name is Andy Monk, age 28 (29 soon), from just outside London, UK. Married, with 4 great kids!
Currently setting up/rehearsing a local covers band (just drums, guitar/vox, keys/vox), aim to be gigging in the next 2 months (I'll let you all know how the first one goes!).
I'm totally self taught, but didn't start playing until I was 17(!).
I bought my first keyboard (after my parents bought me some two Yamaha 'home' keyboards - PSR variety!), it was the Korg 01/Wfd!
I bought it new with some Yamaha [NS10M] monitors and an Alesis power amp! Then I bought a car! Then I was in debt!!!!
My setup is currently:
01/Wfd (my 2nd one!)
Either [Roland] A80 or A90EX (about to buy one but can't decide!)
Roland JV1010 module
Roland MVS-1 module
I've previously owned:
Roland A90EX
Yamaha FB01 (FM module)
Roland Juno 6
Roland JD-800
Roland Wavestation-AD
Roland Wavestation-EX
I've played various covers bands, standard rock fare I guess.
Also played in the Tony Banks tribute concert in September 1998 (www.strictlybanks.co.uk)
It's been great over the last few days, checking out threads from you guys, and just simply discovering this community that I just feel I belong to.
Did I just waffle?!?! Sorry... won't happen again!
Cheers !!!
