RE: What music are you listening to on this fine night?

Currently listening to Carbon Based Lifeforms - Right where it ends.

(some electronic ambient music from a swedish duo)

RE: What do you like to do with your free time?

uhm... let me think..

composing music, building electronic music instruments, building a model
train layout, taking pictures of trains, hanging out for a beer with
friends, playing billiard, walk around lakes and mountains, thinking about
nonsense things, cooking... I think I am missing many more, but these
are the main ones anyways...

RE: which musical instrument do you think sounds the nicest?

Other "famous" Stickists worth to mention:

- Tony Levin (of King Crimson and Peter Gabriel fame)
- Guillermo Cides
- Bob Culbertson
- Greg Howard
- The Heartstrings duo
- Ron Baggerman
- Irene Orleansky
- Virginia Splendore
- Jan Laurenz
- Emmett Chapman (the guy who invented and still builds the instrument)

Search for them on Youtube... Unluckily I am on a hurry and cannot
post links... You will hear that every player has its own style and
way of playing it, so for sure you will find one that suits your
taste precisely :)

My favourites are Tony Levin, Guillermo Cides, Rob Martino and
Jan Laurenz (who happens to be as well the guy that sold me my
first Stick three years ago and lives near me :)

RE: which musical instrument do you think sounds the nicest?

I voted other because I could not find the instrument I play:



(no, that is not me, that is Rob Martino, one of the best Chapman
Stick players around - I wish I played like him...)

... a small question.. is it me or the small islands of Malta and
Cyprus seem to make up a good part of the EU people here?

Nono I'm not disappeared... Just some busy times...
Actually I removed the picture because I wanted to put up a better
one, but I forgot.. and I am not at home right now, so that will
have to wait :D

Mike Mareen - Love Spy

greetings from Switzerland :)

Moin, eh? a simple "moin", or a more elaborated "møjn"? Or even
a double "moi moi"? :D I have to identify which zone of the
northern lights you are from :D

and thanks for the welcoming message :D

greetings from Switzerland :)

Grüezi wohl fraulein Smoky ;)
i just live my lifelong dream of living here :) not that i am that old, but i wanted to live near the swiss alps since i was 15 :)
I sustain myself with a couple of activities, some creative, some rational, but for sure i'm not stockpiling money:) and yes, i do all the other activities that you mentioned :)

what about you?

greetings from Switzerland :)

@Conrad73
it's just me and you from .ch perusing the forums? can't believe that...

RE: WHAT ARE YOU DOING RIGHT NOW?.. Part 2 ....

waiting for a computer to end a calculation... having an espresso, then smoking a cigarette afterwards :)

RE: music/song

As for classical music, one could mention nearly everything that
has been created, personally I have grown up learning the piano on
Debussy and Mozart's Piano Concertos... but if I should mention
something that still gives me a lot of emotions, it's the "Picture
at an Exhibition" of Modest Mussorgsky, both the piano version
(the best intepretation for me was actually the one played by my
cousin, also a professionally trained pianist) and in the orchestral interpretation written by Maurice Ravel and performed
by the Berliner Philharmoniker directed by Von Karajan...

just my two cents :)

RE: newbie

hello from another newbie :D

greetings from Switzerland :)

Hoi! :)

greetings from Switzerland :)

Hi all, I just arrived over here...

So, anybody else in the forums from this corner of the world?

I don't really know what to say in this introductory thread, so I am just trying to fill up some lines with some grammatically-correct words in a
correct context, but with totally useless content :D :D

tschuss!
