Some major changes are afoot

One thing about blogging is that you really need to find your own way of expressing yourself. This blog has been through many changes, both in design and content, and I think now thanks to a bunch of other projects that I know what this blog needs to be.

You may have noticed that the latest few posts have not really been "gear news" type posts, but rather more rambling thoughts brought about by the latest news. This is where this blog will be heading. This will be more my thoughts on guitar and guitar life, including a new section I will be launching as I fully jump into a new phase in my guitar education. With a new band on the way (eventually) I need to get my chops back up to what they used to be, so I'll be sharing that journey on this site. There is no point in there being another guitar "news site". There are way too many and I'd rather chat than report.

Musician's RoadI have also been working on another site which contains blogs by several people on ways to be a better musican from all points of view. There I'll be discussing how the band is progressing. I have another great guy Dan, who has tons of experience both live and in the studio that he will be sharing, and another good friend Ian will be discussing the dark side of PA's and electronics that musicians need to know about. By the way, if you feeling like contributing let me know.

The site is not quite finished but feel free to check it out. I hope you all stick around here as well and enjoy what I have planned.

    Crap. I just find *this* site and now you’re telling me there’s another one I should look at!?!?

    Hrpmh…

    Actually, given where I am right now with my playing and wanting to join/form a band for the first time, musicians road dot come sounds like somewhere I’d like to hang out. I’ll definitely keep my eye on it!

    The only negative comment I’d make on first impression is that the three-column layout mixed with two-column layout seems a bit busy to me. Personal opinion! Feel free to ignore :-) The articles themselves look really interesting (I’ll actually go away and read them now!)

    Hey Kenski

    MusiciansRoad is still under quite some heavy construction so any criticism is appreciated. I had a plan for that front page layout that is not quite happening so I will make is a bit simpler for the time being. You are dead on, way to busy.

    Don’t worry, this site will still be alive and kicking. Hopefully you’ll get the guitar skills and tidbits from this site, and the business side of things through the other.

    BTW… I’m adding your blog to my list of reads. We share the same fixation in naming our guitars. I too, own a “Blackie”.
