G'day y'all

Hi I'm David. I spent most of my life in Melbourne, Australia but now live in a (very) small town in western Kentucky. The music biz has always been part time for me, I've played guitar or bass in a number of cover bands and spent what seems a lifetime as a live sound guy. I always loved the mixing part but I'm just too old for the lifting and lugging side of it all now. I've only started writing in the last few years and thought this would be a good place to see if I can improve or if I'm just wasting hard drive space :lol: . I only really do instrumentals (my lyric writing sucks) and am curious to see if I could ever have a chance at TV/film music. Looking forward to joining what seems like a friendly and knowledgable "gang".

Hey David;

Welcome to the gang. You'll find Taxi to be one of the most generous, open-hearted community of musicians and composers. And if you can attend the Rally in November, you'll make wonderful connections and love spending time with this amazing bunch of people!

Enjoy!
Suz

G'day Stuart. What part of Melbourne? I was in Altona North. Moving to the States has been a blast but I sure miss Oz sometimes.
