Forgot to introduce myself!

Post by chrisrea101 »

Hello all in this wonderful community,

Ive been using this site allmost daily for about 2 years and never got around to introducing myself! Im steve from England (newcastle, quite near middlesborough!) Ive been a hugh fan since I heard DDSR back in 2002, I loved his passionate slide guitar and singing, his songs speak to me in a certain way other artists have never done, has anyone else had that experience? through chris's music i discovered the blues, and am a big fan. I bought a guitar too as I was inspired so much, this year i bought a marranello, my techniques improving and sometimes (just sometimes) sound like the man himself!

Cheers to bart for keeping this site alive and well :D
