Hello everyone!

[Dark]

Hi, I've been looking for an active, friendly, rock based forum for years and i can't believe I've not stumbled across this place before yesterday! I grew up being fed classic rock by my uncles (AC/DC, Judas Priest, Kiss, Zep etc etc) but in my teens in the 80's i got hooked on the likes of Ratt, Bon Jovi, Enuff Z'Nuff, Slaughter, Firehouse, W.A.S.P. etc etc.

 

My music taste has expanded to most genre's during the years but it seems i'm gravitating back to my roots more and more and i've been hunting for what's good in the rock and AOR world at the moment and stumbled across some interesting lists of good albums of the past few years on this very forum and took a stab at H.E.A.T. to see if i agreed. Wow, what a great sounding band i've been missing.

 

So thank you. I'm off to read some more posts on what is hot and what is not!

Hey Stewart, you came to the right place mate. Make sure you stay and post here a lot because we're surely lack of active members since the age of Facebook

[Dark]

Will do Nightrain, i'm not a fan of Facebook so thank you all for your hospitality!

 

Is their an etiquette around here or should i just get stuck in?

[Dark]

Are us Brits thin on the ground round here Glen?

[DaHun72]

Get stuck in. Us Aussies love you brits!

[KarpetRydOFunk]

Are us Brits thin on the ground round here Glen?

Nope. It's made up of equal parts Brits, Aussies, and Americans. Us Canadians are probably the next in line, then we have a single member from a handful of countries: Finland, Germany, Hungary, Indonesia, and others I'm sure I'm forgetting.

Welcome aboard Stewart. Let's keep the good old British end up mate

[Dark]

It's really good to see a wide range of nationality's on here! and good to see some fellow brits.

 

I wished i lived somewhere near a decent rock venue. There is nothing in Lincolnshire. I browse the gig guide in Classic Rock magazine and envy the people that live near Camden!

[Jez]

There's not a lot here in Milton Keynes either, except pub venues, so London it is for me too, not that I get a lot of time to go to any shows in the last few years

[Dark]

Nottingham is our nearest decent city music wise. I used to go to Rock City regularly for gigs but i've moved further away since then. London is a complete ball ache to get to from here so i've never seen been to a gig there. However i did see Bon Jovi in Milton Keynes a while back. I have the feeling it was the Crush tour. Andreas Johnson was supporting.

[KarpetRydOFunk]

Where's Rock City? In the Midlands?

[KarpetRydOFunk]

Oh, wait, didn't see the above post.
