As we enter year 2, id like to see if anybody would like to take over leading the virtual jam.
I will be taking a semi absence from the forum for a bit...nothing wrong, and nothing personal, just going to be recording and doing some seriously overdue shedding for some possible summer gigs that will require me to learn a lot of new material... So I'd like to hand it off for a while. I'll still post here occasionally, I just need to utilize what little free time I have wisely.
I'll be posting one last banger this week. Week 52. Wow. When I started this I was of 3 teachers forced back in person to my school...long, lonely days teaching online from a cold, empty room...and now, here I am, a year later, on the verge of another walk out...its funny, I started this because there were no opportunities to play with others, and then things gradually got better, and now, shit's shutting down yet again.
Anyway...takers?

Well, I expect we did wonder what was happening. Sorry things are difficult for you but at least we've done a complete year. That's quite a long time and it seems to have flown. 52 tunes!
I don't think taking it over is quite my thing but I'm sure there'll be someone to do it. I just hope you stay free from the dreaded plague. This place is absolutely secondary to that.

Oh, nothing's difficult! Just managing my time a bit for a while to get some stuff done, and I want to remove a few things from my "need to remember to do every week" list.

A friend of mine wanted to show me some photos and asked me to join up. So I gave my real email but a false name. They rejected my sign-up because the name and email didn't concur. This was years ago. Now how did they know that? And why did it matter?
So not Facebook. Jeez, they've even had Zuckerberg up before Congress and the Senate! No thanks. Sorry about that.
Anyway, I like it here.

Good for you. Got a link? I don't think viewing it needs a login, does it?

Me Beaumont thank you so much for leading the jam. I’m still practicing and exercising on the very first Whisper Not. I’m just back at forum after a few weeks and be happy to make suggestions but not able to provide the consistent presence.

I'll post a new tune every week, hopefully on Thursdays so it starts on a Friday (same as Jeff did to cover US/UK time differences).
Send me your tunes in a PM, first come first served. I'll probably do the first one. If you don't send them I won't necessarily supply them myself.
I see the role as purely functional. I won't be critiquing peoples' efforts. You can do that to each other!
I will NOT be moderating the thread if war breaks out.
When I've had enough, or my computer breaks, or I get sick, or I die, then I'll tell you. From beyond the grave presumably.
Should be fine. Until we run out of tunes...

Absolutely. Send multiple tunes by all means. The top one goes first.
