Four PC's and a laptop ago, I was just your average normal chatter hangin out in a chat room when this young wiz kid ventured in, hence forth called Sims.
We talked music, the scene and a little about life. He seemed pretty nice even with his accent. Come to find out he was head of a online radio, who knew..
During the course of his visits he would pose questions on my musical aspects and how big of a collection I owned. At the time I think I topped out at 2000 cds of a mixed genre. It has expanded somewhat since to over 2800.
On April 3, 1956 Uncle Milty had a musical act that changed much of the music world
A young lad from Mississippi shaking his hips while playin a guitar yep u got the big L Elvis.. this sparked an interest in music for me. In time it led to the Beatles and Stones. It was through the Stones I came to listen to blues and rock. They led me down an old path of early blues, which also became the foundation for soul and early r&b. All of which as well as classical and jazz I have become interested in.
Back to Sims
One day he mentioned to me I should give working on the radio, something I had always given some thought too, When we discussed money, well lets leave that part out.. after all im still waiting for the Dental Plan (lol) [It's here waiting for you to make up your mind which colour toothpick you want. - Ish]. At the time I was somewhat busy with work but then the door opened and I had time so I said what the hell why not.
So the process began.. ripping tagging sorting all my music into my computer and after a mere 3 weeks I was done , or so I thought seems my mentor sent me the wrong tagger and had to redo 81 gigs of tunes.
After completing the training period of three months I was offered a position with Tribal and have been here since.
My love of sharing music goes back to my roots of music, having played in garage bands and exchanging influences as well as licks.
Now it's my pleasure to share my collection of music with you..
If its not in my playlist stop by the Tribal room on Buzzen and ask me, you never know I might have it but not listed.
