Again one of those lurkers

Hi, I'm Hans from The Netherlands (don't know if there's already someone else one with that name aboard because it's a quite common name overhere).

 

I've been using this website for many years already and have also traded cd's a lot over the last 10 years, and also with some members of this site. If there's a stereo-type rock-fan than I'm afraid it's certainly not me, don't drink, don't have long hair and don't like naked girls .... (they should at least were shoes or boots). But on the other hand I do like various styles of rock music. My favorite style is (catchy) melodic rock and AOR, but I also like occasionally symfo/prog or even some heavy metal. I used to be a great fan of NWOBHM in the 80-ties and have replaced most of my lp's from that era with cd's but when I play them now I've noticed that I prefer a more polished sound and don't like them as much as I used to.

 

I will try to use these forums a bit more and can't wait until I can finally post something on the trade forum. :crazy:

I have a feeling we may have traded a long, long time ago back when I used to work with P&O. Anyway, it was a great trade if you're the guy (there's not many Hans' is Holland are there - :lol: ) but yeah, welcome aboard anyway. Matt will put your coat on the rack by the door and feel free to help yourself to a complimentary plate of nachos, supplied by our kitchen-hand, Wes.

Greetings and felicitations. Board rules state that the first round of beers are on the house, then the next round is on you :drink:

Geoff, as memory serves me right I also think we have made one or even more trades in the past, and

it was always a pleasure dealing with you, so maybe we can hook each other up with some stuff in the future. :guitbannana:

I knew it... sometimes this memory thing actually works okay for me. Future trades sound cool too. :)

    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
