That's a great question Steve. It was a life's mission to learn to play guitar & when I found L&MG in 2008 I knew I'd stumbled onto the path to achieve that goal. I guess when I started the answer was to play songs, now 12 years later (OMG where did that time go) I plug in and play because I just enjoy the tone of a good guitar through an amp with good speaker/s. My preferred style of music is Blues/Rock or just stone cold Blues. I'm a Rory Gallagher/Lynyrd Skynrd fan and I've learnt to play a few of those songs, albeit when playing Rory you are trying the emulate the playing of the GOAT. I'm going through a Fleetwood Mac stage at the moment, Lindsay Buckingham's style of playing is way above my pay grade but 12 years of fumbling around the fretboard courtesy of Steve's tuition has taught me how to adapt my playing to be 'sorta' faithful to the original. Why do I play? Strat into an AC15, cup of coffee on the back verandah playing Rory............ Now that's why I play :-)

I'm a new Oldy member. Was a regular L&MG forum member since 2008. Havent been here for a couple years and recently couldnt find the Forum until an old Guitar Mate from Chicago 'Earth47' sent me an email with the new location of the Forum. I look forward to touching base with some old L&MG friends & meeting new 'Krenz Gang' friends Peter 'Slug'
