bamboofrog Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Hi All Been a member since 2008, but haven't been around much. Bought a bass 12 years ago never really practised and sold it. Just had my 42nd birthday and decided to have another go, hence revisiting forums for ideas and inspiration. Mainly listen to Blues/Rock and soul. Play a bit of acoustic guitar and clawhammer banjo - an eclectic mix Quote
Soledad Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Was over your way yesterday meeting a guitar and drums for a looksee - quite local. The acoustic & banjo sounds v interesting. I've been trying to put a rootsy folk/blues/country gang together. Might be worth a chat ! 1 Quote
pbasspecial Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Hi Bamboofrog, I live in Bromley and quite active in the local music scene. If you need any help or advice, happy to help. All the best, Paul 1 Quote

yorks5stringer Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Welcome! I was born in Bromley just over 65 years ago and spent my first 6 years in West Whickham. Have very little recollection of it save the red Post box on/near Birchtree Avenue!😪 (nostalgic tear) 1 Quote

bamboofrog Posted January 27, 2020 Author Posted January 27, 2020 Nice, don’t live far from masons hill Quote
pbasspecial Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 I was born on Mason's Hill too. Now live about 1/4 mile away. Bit embarrassing really for the lack of wanderlust. 1 Quote
