I don't write originals, but have been playing around with singing cover songs.  Just added Grandpa by the Judds.  The photography is my own.

Would love to hear comments, good and bad. 

How is this system for a full band with bass, rhythm, lead and vocals on up to 5 people?  Does it take more than 1 of these systems?   Thanks. 

Presently, I do dj'ing/karaoking and use a component system with separate mixer and power amp.  Speakers jbl and very heavy.  But have gone back and forth with a band environment and that is even more of a headache to set up.  All of the above and them some with the sound checks.

Cool feeling.

I've been trying to learn guitar and played some with others.   It is fun to follow along.

I love this thread.

I was in a band for about 15 years.  We never broke up, just drifted.  Partly because we lost our rhythm player and then our lead player.  Miss them a lot, we never really grouped together since then.   

I started doing kj/dj stuff just to stick around music.  Lost my soul mate and went into deep depression.  In that period, lost my passion for singing. 
Decided to try playing guitar mainly to make my brain work on something different.  Focusing intently on the guitar helps a lot.  Singing hasn't come back though.  It was all I did in the band.  It was said I couldn't sing and walk at the same time.    ...wink...wink.....lol

I have a very supportive friend who likes to hear me sing and thinks I do well.   At his request, I posted 3 cover songs on YouTube and he just brags to everyone.   I wish I could match his enthusiasm.   

Anyway, listening to the stories here gives me hope I'll get my passion again through learning the guitar.  I get to jam with our old bass player (he also taught me chord progression and lit that need for knowledge) and others who show up.  So far, we've had a banjo picker, steel guitar and lead players with various levels of skill.   

It makes for a great time together.  Oh yeah, the bass player and his wife are excellent cooks.   

In U.S. here and it is difficult to find others.   Usually it is because once they find someone they pretty much become exclusive. Or it is because I'm not that good yet.  lol

How about  RokGenerate or RokGenerator?

Cool!  Thought I would add... I have some experience in working in a studio.  No big stuff, just some songs written by some friends.
