Gurdy has arrived! :)

gurdy · 01-23-2005, 09:58 AM

Hello there all!

I'm a newbie on this forum and therefore want to introduce myself a bit. I'm Gerdien, from the Netherlands. I'm 18 years old and I'm a student. I just looove Damien Rice his music. This guy knows how music is meant to sound like! hehe... [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

I play the guitar a lot and really enjoy that! I'm beginning to make my own songs now with a friend of mine. She sings and I play the guitar, sometimes I do backvocals too..but not very often! I enjoy singing too, but I'm not really good at it I think. It's just for fun. Other thingsI like are, of course, music!! I really can appreciate artists (other than Damien) like Sarah McLachlan, Heather Nova, Ysis (from Holland), Switchfoot, K's Choice, some songs ofKatie Melua, Jason Mraz, Jewel, Radiohead and.. gosh.. SO many more! Every now and then I listen to a classical piece, like Vivaldi ora classical guitarplayerlike Harry Sacksioni [img]smileys/smiley32.gif[/img]I also liste to rockmusic like Metallica, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, BoySetsFire, Rise Against and Incubus.

Next to music I love to swim once a week, drawsome stuff (nothing in particular) and read some nicebooks. I also love to shop, but I don't always have that much money [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img].

All right, enough about me I believe... hehe, I wonder if anyone is going to read this story anyway. For those who do: thanks! I'm ready to discuss and share experiences with you guys on this forum!

Byebye! [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

Hey Gerdien!!

Nice to see you here.

Its a cool place to discuss all sorts of stuff here.

Oh, just to let you know. Almost all dutch eskimo's bought a ticket for
the Frames concert in paradiso. So its going to be an eskimo gathering
there!
Enjoy your stay here.

gurdy · 01-23-2005, 10:11 AM

O gosh.. I don't even know the Frames... [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]Are they good? Hmm, let's download some stuff!

soda · 01-23-2005, 10:17 AM

Ah, well, thay are okay[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

I like them a lot. They are huge in Ireland. Try the Dance the devil
cd. You'll probably love it. If you want to get an idea how they sound
live then find Setlist, this is a live recording.

Where in the Netherlands are you from?

gurdy · 01-23-2005, 11:31 AM

Elburg, near Zwolle. And you? (why do we talk in English by the way... [img]smileys/smiley24.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img])

soda · 01-23-2005, 11:35 AM
