After a couple of months of not working, I've got a new job which has been challenging to try and find that work/life balance again. Add to that one of my old positions asked me to do some after hours work as well, making it more of a challenge. So unfortunately guitar playing has dropped a bit into the background, I'm trying to get some regular practice in, and occasional come to the forums, but haven't found the chance to reply too much.

However the 2nd job is almost done, work and life seem to be balancing out, the weathers turning nice and the forecast is good ... I should be here more often!

I'm curious too ... my video of putting together a toy with my son has over eight thousand views, yet my guitar playing, I'm lucky to get 50! So ... following

No worries, glad it helped; while you're in the chat corner, you may as well let us know a little bit about yourself, what level of guitar you are at, etc.

Hi, welcome, check your login session is still active, I've seen them time out occasionally.

Hey TF, wishing you the best until you're back, and I echo the sentiments of the others, hope it's soon.

Cheers for all your contributions, you'll be missed

Thanks - strangely I was thinking the same thing (not sure if you can hear me laughing at the intro) - as I was thinking "I'm smiling at the intro, but the song is a sad song about breaking up". When I read the Wiki page, the singer/songwriter (Ian Curtis) wrote it about his marriage breakup, which lead to his suicide later.

Thanks - it was kind of an extension of the Bizarre Love Triangle song I did earlier, as the second groups was formed from the members of the first group, less their lead singer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joy_Division

One of two things - either the song isn't correctly formatted on the source site (it needs to be in ChordPro format), or the Chordie parser hits some sort of error and can't recover from it.

Normally it's the first one; I download the files I want to play and reformat them to the way I like them, and it also gives me the opportunity to save the files to my iPad and have them with me where ever I travel.

I wouldn't call you nuts, I'd call you magnanimous.

Thanks - when in my teenage years I got a lot into the techno-pop stuff, which was most of it around that era

No two microphones - I'd used the Rode as a lavalier style mic, on my shirt collar, etc, but wasn't getting the pickup from the voice, so i ordered an 'el cheapo' brand from China with the headset style microphone. Then I ripped out that mic and put my Rode in it's place, which is mostly what I use these days. I still need to hit it with some hot glue, as it keeps popping out of where the old mic used to sit, but it's just one mic for everything. This video is an older one between when I received the headset and before I pulled the mic, so the Rode is off to the side (the internal mic wasn't plugged in after the one trial, in which it's quality was 'as expected').

Sounds good; I was waiting for some bass and/or drums to bring the lower end in, that would have been the icing on the cake!!!
