As long as I'm not being served Vegamite sandwiches, if I understand that properly.
EddieRUKiddingVare! If you are interested in my activities with Niagara Peninsula musicians and instruments,
please visit our Kijiji,
http://www.kijiji.ca/h-st-catharines/80016
to find my ad in "community", "artists and musicians", "musician wanted-update",
using this guitar and Hendrix avatar, and look around.
Please, let me explain.
When my inventive guitar was setting online forum records for replies and views,
when those records didn't exist, I decided to use Kijiji for a specific purpose, not buying or selling,
because I am a local boy and try here first.
A friend writing a university thesis using Kijiji as a social study got me thinking this way.
Yeah, look at huge American cities to find very little musician activity, for example.
Anyway, I made a very recognizable avatar and put up photos to promote my guitar,
and let everyone else see what was happening.
I asked about buying parts I was inventing and making myself, silly me, updating the ad,
deleting the previous one, describing the build as it advanced and the various online responses,
some international.
After two weeks I could put up an update and within 24 hours there would be over 300 views,
with very few replies, usually compliments, hearing about it in real life too.
That's what I'm now doing with the band, something I won't discuss much here,
until I have some music to share.
Maybe tomorrow, I'm going to make a video, without my face, playing an inventive song and singing,
saying I want other guitar players to have a chance to try and play along.
When I say inventive, that's playing steady bass riffs with all six strings being worked,
playing things you can only play with the bass string on the bottom and highs on top.
That's also half tripping over you, spacey rock talk behavior, now online tech talk, tech talk, tech talk,
online musical atmospherics for viewers, a uh, sideways view of self-promotion,
and just the start.
