John suggested a sticky post for new members to introduce
themselves...so here it is!

so then, newbies, tell us a bit about yourselves...

Hello

I'm a 37 year old life time rocker. I live in Cheshire with wife, 2
kids and various animals. I have been a subscriber to Classic Rock for
12months and enjoy (except when they go off the rails and review bands
like Keane!!) almost every issue. The first record I brought was
"another brick in the wall " 7" First album was Jailbreak by Thin
Lizzy. My first concert was Marillion at the Victoria Halls Hanley. My
first festival was Donnington 1985.

I drive my wife mad cus i dont throw anything music related away hence
a record collection of 1000+ LPs and over 1000 cds plus magazines,
ticket stubs concert programmes and over 250gb on my pc!

My favourite album is UFO Strangers In The Night
Favorite Song is No Quater Led Zep
Favourite Guitarist Rory Gallagher
Best Concert The Cult - Electric tour
Best Festival Reading 1987
Best memory getting a backstage pass to donnington

If your still awake thanks for reading and I look forward to chatting
with you.

Cheers

Gareth (frispy)

Welcome aboard Frisby. You are with the likeminded here. Even some
humour, sometimes funny humour ;)
.
Your notes are interesting, I am older than you but;
.
My favourite album is UFO Strangers In The Night  - Hard to argue
against that one.
Favorite Song is No Quater Led Zep  - Dont know it from song title,
probably heard it though (I am not a huge Zep fan).
Favourite Guitarist Rory Gallagher - Good shout, I have not heard that
much of him though.
Best Concert The Cult - Electric tour. - Me ?; Iron Maiden on the
Somewhere In Time Tour. Or Thin Lizzy on the Life Tour or Queensryche
on the Operation Mindcrime Tour.
Best Festival Reading 1987 - Me ? Knebworth - Deep Purple/Scorpions etc
Best memory getting a backstage pass to donnington - Me ?: I am so old,
you will just have to keep reading this group discussion board.
Welcome

Hi Frispy (or frisby as Woody seems to have renamed you!)

Good to have you on boad

I'm Jay - fan of British Rock (Leppard, Maiden, Saxon, Priest) and at
28, like everyone else, wishes I was born 10 years earlier.

I play bass and guitar but have no band at present - anyone near to
Bedford and fancy a jam?

Been subscribing to CR for 2 years.

Jayzeph

Welcome Jay.

Your list of favourite bands gets you an official invite to this group.

Rock on.

Jay

Welcome aboard.  Being 38, I was born ten years earlier.   Don't worry - you
didn't miss a thing.  It was all power cuts, Bay City Rollers and having to
go to school - the telly was quite good though (Clangers, Camberwick Green,
Fingerbobs etc) and there seemed to be much more custard for tea.

I posted this earlier but now that the thread is a sticky I'll post it
again. I'm Mike, 40 years
old, from the St. Louis area and love rock music. Favourite bands are
Magnum, Thunder, Rush,Saxon, Pink Cream 69 and All About Eve. I'm
recently retired from the Air Force so I've gotten to live in Italy,
Germany and England where I got to be exposed to many bands that most
of us Yanks would never hear about. I love talking about and finding
"new" bands or music. Feel free to IM me any time.

Hi I'm Sam.
I'm 22 (wish i was 10 years older as well). I'm a dj on a aor internet
station, and a media production student. I want to be a sound engineer
at live events when i graduate. My favourite bands are  Led Zeppelin,
Cream, Pink Floyd, Boston, Deep Purple, Boston, Iron Maiden,Flaming
Lips, Nightwish and the stereophonics.  favourite song is Ramble on by
led zep.I've been subscribed to cr since May and think it's the best
music mag out there. I love live music and have been going to the rock
and blues festival in Derbyshire for the past 4 years running. I'm on
one of the vids that Thunder filmed there. I'm always on the lookout
for new bands, wolfmother being my favourite new band of the year, and
check out an unsigned band called Headrush, they're pretty good. I'm
hoping to meet likeminded people who love good old fashioned rock
music, and hate all that indie/pop/emo crap at the moment.

Hi Sam

Take it from someone who is 10 year older (well, 12 actually but who's
counting?), you do NOT want to be 10 years older. 22 is a great age -
enjoy it.

And welcome to the group, looking forward to chatting with you
