h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm an IT-consultant, mainly on the IBM AS/400. And I'm a musician as well...

Sounds like an interesting life. Are you based in London. Your page doesn't mention where you are.

I used to play the triangle in the Salvation Army Band. Which instrument do you play?

Nah I'm based in Holland(Alphen aan den Rijn, WHERE ??? AlPhEn AaN dEn RijN, it's about 20 miles from Amsterdam). And I play synthesizers, sequencers, piano, organ, guitar, do the vocals.....

ohhhh....another musician We need you to join our h2g2 group....we are trying to come up with some *special* music just for all the hikers in here

If you set it up you can count me in . No problemo, I record everything on my harddisk as it is. Just have to find someone who knows how to convert the songs into managable pieces...cause they're usually about 10 MB ..!

TM.

And what do YOU play Shazz ?

LOL.....flute,clarinet,recorder,piano,*church* organ(a little) and guitar(a little)......for my sins .......oh .and the cd player...and the fool LOL

Hello from a redundant American newspaper man! After nearly a decade in the newspaper business (finally editor of two small weeklies in Pennsylvania) my "family-owned paper was sold to a chain. Having seen the other papers they put out, I quickly fled as being made redunand sucks with a baby on the way (my wife, not me)! Long sotry short, I got a public relations job with the local school consortium and now put in fewer hours, with fewer stress-filled moments, for the same pay and better benefits! All things happen for a reason, and by the looks of things, your redundancy seems to have occurred so a bunch of H2G2 heads can get free drinks!
Good luck!!

No, I don't play a right-handed guitar left-handed...
I'm play the flugalhorn ---- honk, honk, tweet, tweet!

We just might be able so sample that. Turn it into a real 'H2G2 Official Soundbite Yes You Heard It Right This Is Our Tune' kind of thing, we might even be famous..or get arrested

Probably the latter!

...well that would certainly make it all the more entertaining

If I seem missing for the next couple of days do not despair ! Just going to Lowlands...Any of you know what that is ?

Didn't think so, it's about the second largest rockfestival in Europe and definitely the best(theather, bars, cinema's, 80 bands, etcetera).

Tell you about it when I get back,

ByeNow,
