Two weekends ago we were at the Brisbane Guitar Amp & Vintage Show. We spent 2 days meeting really lovely people, talking to lots of guitarists about music tuition and doing a great deal of playing at people.

A big thanks to Craig and Reece from (and all of the people who helped them) for putting on a great show, we’re looking forward to next years show already.

I’m currently in the proccess of ripping my CD collection and discovered this hidden track on one of our old band CDs. I’d completely forgotten about it and thought it was amusing enough to incude here. It was from back when we were still calling ourselves BIMA.

Line6 Pod / Digidesign workshop followup

Thanks to everyone who came to my clinic on the night of the 3rd of June. We had really good attendance and from the feedback I’ve gotten since, everyone found it really informative and helpful.

I spoke about using the Line6 Pod family of amp emulators with Digidesign’s Mbox2 range of products. I’ve been using one version or another of both of these products for quite a long time and have been recommending them to all of my students.

This was the first clinic that we (IMA – the Independent Music Academy) have done in association with Billy Hyde. Hopefully, many more will follow. So a big thank you to everyone at Billy Hyde for making the night possible, as well as to all of you who attended the night!

Workshop on the 20th of May

On Tuesday the 20th of May I’ll be doing a workshop on using recording to improve your practice and make it more fun. I’ll be focussing specifically on the Line6 PodXT and Digidesign’s Pro Tools software.

I’ve been using and recommending these products to clients for years as they’re great products and very much the industry standard. There will be lots of practical examples and you’ll go away with a excellent understanding of the most effective way to practise.

The workshop will be held at Billy Hyde’s on Barry Pde in Fortitude Valley.

At the moment, I’m writing a series of article on guitar tone for the ‘Rave’ magazine. I’ve completed two out of the five I want to do. You can find them on my website.
