Oirish isn't bad at all, dawson and I quite like his oft misguided and passionate enthusiasm.
Besides, I'm not an attention seeker...

Well, seeing good/bad is generally in comparison - and most people compare to themselves. So what you said isn´t in conflict with what dawson said. If Oirish is bad, and you´re bad, you see each other as fine people - that´s rather natural ;-)

:? Nup...you're pretty much misguided on this one, mate. See, when I decided to publish my first book, I would periodically wonder what it would feel like being just a teensy bit famous. Not too much, you understand - I am much too old to be in the sex, drug and alcohol scene, and for heavens sake what would one do with all that money? But then I knew how awful it would be to have no private life…“Ooh! Look everyone, there she goes - that’s her!” or, “I used to know her!” (uh-oh..) Then you'd have to be buying a new (and more expensive) pair of sunglasses. No, I definitely wouldn’t like people paying me a lot of attention. Trust me, you don't even know me.

Oirish!! Come back in here and defend me with your Oi's.

Well said, Oirish...even though it was two years ago after you'd set up your last band. What song do you like to play best at the moment?? Mine are Spancil Hill, Black is the Colour, The First Time, and and I'm learning a few more Christy Moore songs; Ordinary Man and January Man.

Essencoiest..??? :lol: I do know what you mean even though there's no such word, man.

Talk to the guys at the Music shop about what guage (size) strings would be best for you. Sometimes lighter gauge strings are better in the beginning (easier on finger pads!). Also there's a lot of different string compositions - nickel, stainless, bronze etc. It depends on how you play and what sound you want to achieve, so do go and ask them, and buy a second set to keep. Once you restring (there's a handy plastic winder tool you can buy also to make the job quicker) you can gently stretch the strings a little before you tighten them completely. But even after alls said and done, some strings just don't sound the same!

Work away!!

oi loike to oinvent new woirds :wink:

musoic shoip, thats what oim goinna do bookoish,
oin general, oi was askoin' aroiund as well, a froiend of moine gave me an advoice..
seems that oi do need thoinner stroings, oim a fan of banjo-loike soiund, so oi'll
seek foir sth oin the categoiry; seems that thoicker stroings make soiund to be
moire classoic, hard and also oinfluences speed, makes the playoin' sloiwer;
as oi put an accent and moistly play oin hoigher toine stroings.. such as hoigh E,
B, G.. oi remember that woith oild set of stroings, they soiunded sweet and moire
banjo-loike, oim even used to poick em' moire oindoivoidually and whoile playoin'
oit gave me a feeloin' that oim hoittoin' the very soiul of the tune; woith new set
of stroings everythoing's changed and oi hoinestly feel noithoing whoile playoin',
tois' loike the stroings woirk agaoinst me, the playoin' oitself feels artoifoicoial !

oi already boiught that tooil, yeah, even better, oits 3 oin 1 tooil, oit can cut
stroings, pull oiut the pegs and quoickly turn the tuners; tois' very useful loittle
thoingy !
