Well, I've heard of singing stones, and the singing nun, but a singing mod is a new one :lol:
Seems we're in good hands.

Great news. This is a truly diverse forum for such a small community and it's remarkable for its civility. Glad to hear it will remain in good hands with Sandy on the mod team!

Now if we could just find out if he is THE Magic Alex or not... :)

Thanks everyone for your kind words. I'm pleased to finally be able to contribute something to a community which has helped me so much.

I'm not the Magic Alex, but Sandy is short for Alexander in Scotland and I do now live in Greece - so it' s not that far off. Unfortunately, I've yet to invent anything quite as cool as the Nothing Box.

Thanks, 42low. I've put another 8 or so videos on my channel since then (all proudly made using Linux) and I've got another 50 or so on the back burner so I don't see there being any danger of that.

But i was wondering. Do you only cover? Or have you produced yourself? Or gonna do that?
Thanks, 42low. I was in a band many moons ago for which I wrote a handful of songs which I keep meaning to get round to rerecording. There's a newish tune I've been working on for a while, but I'm hopeless at finishing my own stuff - there's always some bit that I think needs to be better before I can release it into the wild.
