Forum Newbies... a few thoughts + FAQ

[livinthosesongs]

Hello there!Newbie.Just joined Taxi last week and submitted my first 2 songs. I'm actually a stagehand in NYC doing lighting at the Metropolitan Opera but I grew up in the country. while I was listening to the Scorpions my Dad was force feeding me Johnny Cash and needless to say his taste won out. I love music from all genres but country is my first love and I love to try and write in that area.I'm not sure yet if I'm any good but my family says (he he). Anyway, I have already learned a great deal form these forums and look forward to learning even more.K.www.taxi.com/kirtburcroff

Hi everybody!! I joined Taxi back in February and I'm having a wonderful experience. Growing up my dad and I would make up new lyrics for songs as a game/joke. I still have fun creating music, but now it's a lot more than a game. The R&B and Neo-Soul genres are my areas of expertise. I've found that there are not many people on this forum that I have this in common with, but that is true of most. Anyhoo, I look forward to getting to know everyone as I stroll through the different boards.

Well here I am. Been writing for quite a while but never pursued anything further than my notebook and singing to my family. My wife found TAXI for me and a co-worker with a studio equal a few demos in progress. And soon hopefully a little more attention.I started out heavy/hard/fast but my stuff always ends up Country. Go figure.........Thanks for having me aboard.

Welcome to Taxi Adam, it certainly looks like you've got "game" (sorry...I just couldn't resist ). Seriously, best of luck and if you have any questions this gang here is the right crew to ask!J.J.
