Tanks folks, appreciate the input trying hard to get these songs out there a bit, I know they arent grade A but they are pretty close and some of my new material will be much better when we get it recorded.
On that note, does anyone know which U.K radio stations you can send music into? Radio 1 have listened to Blow but havent got back to me on whether or not they will play it.
Hey all, Not been here for a while but I wanted to share something with you and I really hope a few of the new guys read this.
I started using this site about 6 years ago when my mum bought me an acoustic guitar for Christmas. Having no experience at all I decided to learn so bought a book of The Beatles and set to work.
Well that failed, the thing was all messed up didnt understand a word of its so I decided to come on line and try and find some help....so I found this place.
I had a look about and was amazed how easy I found the place, long story short I actually credit this forum with teaching me to play guitar!
Point being, stick around here because you can learn a lot. I'm actually in here to plug my band Papa Hotel, and our 2 new tracks lol so have a listen, I'm the front man of this band and I dont think it would have happened if i hadnt found this place!
Have a listen, I hope this can inspire someone.

Sounds great, scrimmy! Beside kicking ***, it has a nice bluesy feeling to it.
You know, your example is an inspiration to me as Im just a beginner like you were a few years ago. Its nice to know that time spent here couple with sufficient practice will lead to results!
Thanks very much bud, stick at it, you can only get out of it exactly what you put in, and this is the place to be for that to happen.
Hi guys how is everyone?
A few years back i used this site religiously to learn to play the guitar, i sat for a long time each day learning new chords and songs and I thought I'd never get there!! Well I did get there, and I played in pubs, at parties, in the street and just about got banned from a pub for playing in a beer garden when another band were on and they all came to hear me!
Well i decided that playing along acoustic had run its course for me and decided to form a band. I have written songs for as long as I learned to play and your very own Roger Guppy recorded one of my first songs a few years back. So I thought I'd give you a taste of what we've done.
This song is called Blow and i wrote it after suffering from depression for 2 years and deciding it was time to screw the nut, and then I thought I should use it as a positive rather than a negative.
Anyway enough of my rambling, if you like this one, check out the other 2 songs we recorded bare in mind these are done in the rehearsal rooms and will be recorded professionally as soon as we can get the funds!!!
Our band is called Papa Hotel.
If you like it, leave a comment on it :-)
WOW!!!!!!! I remember this song just found it on Google lol Did Ken ever record it???

Yeah I 100% agree with that, my last guitar I played for 10 minutes then bought......flipping hate it now!! But I know the guys in the shop so if on the off chance I dont like it then I'll take it back and buy a new one lol.
*** Admin Note - offensive word edited, Roger ***
Ok guys I'm going to buy a new guitar tomorrow, I want to buy this one so the dude in the shop said he'll put it aside for me, so what do you guys think?
Does anyone on here know enough about guitars to give me a small review on this?
Its a Cort EVL A6 does anyone know if Cort are a good make? Ive never played one so I have no idea!
Ok so its only small fry, its a football website I go one, www.hibeesbounce.com, Ive had positive feedback on every song I've posted on there aswell.
The site gets alot of traffic and you never know who is lurking around the forums. Ive been asked to answer some questions and play one of my songs, this will be in video format on the websites front page!!
I'm really looking forward to that and I'll be giving www.chordie.com a big mention!!
Cheers Jase
How about "Duelling Stetsons"
Shit if you dont like it ill give you £100 for it!!!!!
Its a Westfield, used to have an Ovation but traded it in, kinda went down in price by about half, this guitar is only retalied at £169 my ovation was £299 but just did a straight swap.
Best deal I've ever made
Thanks alot, glad you both enjoyed it
I also had a wee strum along to it, good work
