Last night GB Blues Band played at the Woofstock Vol 2 event in Sitia Crete .Woofstock a 2 day charity event in aid of the Sitia animal welfare organisation .
Three bands played last night
Spiros Romeliatis ,Sinchordia ,and GB
The audience, although somewhat smaller than expected had a great time . Tonight three of the youth bands of Sitia will take the stage .
The event was organised by Vasilis Krithakis, one of Sitias young musicians who is still at school and a shining example of Greek youth .Well done Vassilis from all who took part .
I would like to hear how you play it I tried it this morning and it became a reggae song after two attempts . I played it on capo 5 and added a D at the end of the first line and a repetitive C-D change at end of the chorus .Its a very good song I like it a lot .
hey ark I haven't seen much sun since I got back been stuck in Niks cellar rehearsing for Saturday's show , we haven't played together for 6 months Brian our rhythm guitarist doesn't get back till tomorrow afternoon ,that's what I call cutting it short .Next week I will take in some rays .
nice performances Amy you have a good voice.
Just got the internet back on today ,back in the land of sunshine and raki .
great song really well done I enjoyed it immensely
Well at this moment I m just getting ready to go to the airport so after Ive had my meeting with the proposed venue we will have some details to share .The venue Lassion golden bay is a great place where we often play during the summer ,the pool area we use for concerts is a natural amphitheatre with great acoustics .
The complex is great and has its own tavern which hosts traditional greek music.
In Sitia we have 2 very good guitar teachers plus a number of multi instrumentalists who can be drafted in to give workshops ,lessons etc .So I think we can offer a really special experience to any one who takes part .
This could become an international on line folk club or an "open" Skype night
take care what you buy there are a lot of pricy ones dunlops are about 9 pounds for a glass one but there are some around 4 pounds just as good .Glass gives a warm sound where as steel is brighter .I tend to use glass but always have a steel one as well as I dropped and broke no less than 5 last year !!!!!!!!
probably a sunday would be better for me but I am flexible I can probably get a few of the Sitia guys who aren't on Chordie up to my place to join in as well .
I go back to Greece on Tuesday and its likely to be a week before I get the internet back on at home but I'll see if it can be hurried
try http://www.guitarbackingtrack.com/ there's some good stuff on there but be careful as there's also some rubbish
Tell me more about the Skype nights I'm a bit clueless as to what happens ,Is Skype not just one to one can it be like a conference call?
Last night I went to a traditional folk club at the Moorcock inn Blacko in Pendle .Interesting night I had not played un amplified publically for a very long time . The club operate a music in the round format where every one sits around the room and songs are played in turn ,the members are of mixed ability but very supportive of each other and give encouragement to any one who wants to sing or play. It was great to join in last night and I will certainly visit again when back in the uk . I would recommend anyone visiting the area to make the trip to the Moorcock on a Tuesday night where Jamey and the rest of the club will give a warm welcome .
Ok Norm as I said I have a meeting set up to see if its possible to put some sort of package together if we can drum up enough participants then we should have a little event on the horizon .
Gav I use open g for slide but if you tune to open e then the bar chords will be in the normal positions hope this helps
Size comparison to a jumbo

I had toyed with the idea of getting a Yamaha guitarlele but at 3 time the cost why bother this does the job ,the only problem might be getting it back to Crete due to easy jets luggage restrictions .
hey topdown did you think it was for playin "heavy rock" lol 
dino the pic should be visible now I think the problem was I copied the url from a pic I sent to a friend on facebook personal messenger ,it was invisible to me until I logged into facebook then it appeared as if by magic .Ive changed it now .
Picked this 1/2 size guitar up today from a charity shop 20 pounds plays great cheaper than a travel guitar just as good

any performance in public is good paid or unpaid pro or open mic what ever you want .
Zurf /Amy I thought there would be a split post facility in mod controls ,a forum I used to mod had this facility ,don't worry I'll raise a new post when I have some more info from Janni.
A recording is definite Phil
Ive sent this version on to my mate kev who does take it easy in his set he plans to practice it for his set ,another convert to sleaze lol
