Introduction

Hi Hive People

#introduceyourself #teamuk

Thought I should put a line or two down to introduce myself.

I didn’t really start playing a guitar seriously until about ten or twelve years ago, which is when I joined my first band.
I did play before then, but just a few party pieces.
I never learned to read music, and thought 'Tab' was an early low calorie soft drink.
I play lots of stuff, (you can find some of it on SoundCloud (https://soundcloud.com/casey_jones1) but am always in awe of those who can write their own material. @steevc and @todayslight spring immediately to mind.

When the band folded in 2016 I became involved in the local music scene, playing a number of Open Mics in the area and joining The Arlesey Jammers, where I met some of the people wo would later introduce me to Hive, @steevc in particular.

It's not unusual to see me riding a motorcycle to this or that Open Mic, with a guitar strapped to my back.
..and I hope to post from some more exotic locations soon, as I am taking the strings on a solo motorcycle tour of Europe and Asia.

I love variety in music but most of all I love energy and enthusiasm from those playing it. I hope to find both here in abundance.

I hope you enjoy the songs I hope to post, and I look forward to hearing yours.

Welcome to Hive!

Welcome, Steve!

Hive needs more Steves :)

Thanks for that.
Apologies for slow response.
Still finding my way about and just discovered how to send replies.. :)

Thanks.
Still figuring things out.
Thought I'd replied to your post, and then saw my reply against a different message.. lol.
Appreciate the welcome..

Welcome to Hive Steve (?). It's great that @steevc always drags more people onboard. Hope you'll enjoy it here

Sorry for the slow response.
Figuring out which buttons to push. :)
Thanks for the welcome.

Welcome Steve. Definitely a good time to join.

Sound cool. I am far away from your performance, so I am impressed. Just learned few lines from Twinkle Twinkle Little Star today for my nephews, as they like it. The one that is 2 years old, mainly. I am doing it for the fun of it only.

Welcome to Hive.

Thanks.
'For the fun of it' is absolutely by far the best reason to play or sing or dance, or any number of the other things in life that make you smile.

Great to see you here at last. I didn't realise you hadn't been playing so long, but you've really taken to it. One of these days we'll do that interview for my podcast, which I need to get back into.

You could post some of your old videos on here. I know some people will want to hear about the bike too.

Have fun!

Thanks..
Been busy trying to explore stuff, and only just figured out about replying to notifications.
Oops...
Catch you soon...

Take your time to get used to it. The vibe is a bit different to Facebook, but lots of cool people around and loads of music.

Still finding my way around, hence the slow response.
I'm on a page one minute, and then forget how I got there. :)
Appreciated.

Welcome to Hive, Steve :D

Always keen to meet more humans who love music!

Looking forward to seeing more of you.
