Default New...but not Green.

(let's try this again - hahaha)

Hi, I'm a Canadian Bassist/Keyboardist/Vocalist of about 30 years now...I've worked with quite a few medium to larger acts here. I've toured internationally, but mostly Canada and the US.

Some of you may know me as Muzoid, feel free to chime in and say hi, I always love when my friends stop by.

I'm heavily classically trained in Piano (I achieved my ARCT with the Royal Conservatory of Music in my early teens), but I'm a Rocker at heart...I'm sure I'll be asked about the music I like...all I can say is that I can find something I like (and learn something from) just about everything I hear...from an epic solo, down to a cleverly placed snare shot.

I play guitar as well, I build and modify them, and I'm addicted to my gear.

Huge RUSH, Marillion, Yes, Genesis fan...but this is just the short list.

If there's anything at all I can help you with, never hesitate to ask...I love sharing knowledge.

*buys everyone here their drink of choice, and springs for pizza*

I'm guessing you like a lot of 70s rock band (not to mention prog) so then we have something in common! Frankly, we need more people in our little prog-community here so I hope you'll stick around. Oh, and you should consider checking out our prog & fusion album club

Once again, welcome to MB!

I'm a flute player approximately at the RCM grade 10 level. I haven't taken all the exams that are required so I don't have a certificate yet. Also working on my piano if I ever do want to take the ARCT exam

Hello Introvox, I'm a composer looking to find a few guys to play some of my material live. Google - Hybrid None if you want to check the music out, as I can't post URLS here for some reason. Since you have a ton of experience I was just curious to hear your thoughts on the path of the music industry, any general advice to anyone getting ready to be a road warrior?

actually, I'm curious about your real name

since you've played with medium to larger acts, are you by any chance a member of the Bare-Naked Ladies?

Wouldn't that be cool. Not sure if Introvox is from Toronto though. I was at a wedding a few years back where the bride's cousin was Steven Page and he was sitting at the next table. Cool guy.

Hey Introvox! I'm pretty much the head-honcho here, so if you have any complaints - be sure to hit up our receptionist Janszoon. He'll take care of you.

Also, I make all the rules and drive a Ferrari.

....I'm still on hold....listening to instrumental versions of Anne Murray tunes.

Thanks all...happy to be here.

I don't play for BNL....but I love them....not the band, the real ones.

@tore...thanks buddy, trust me...I'm there!...and thanks again, pleasure to be here.

@chanpyn....sure, I will check out your works, let me fire up Shangri-Laudio (my totally overkill sound system)

@duce...my name is Rob, but you can call me "that dude that flirts with all the chicks"

@BD...,I have an instrumental original with flute you might like, I'd love for you to check it out..Toronto Boys are idiots....I grew up at Vic Pk. and Eglington

@conan...you're a target now...I always take down authority figures kidding.

@Janzoon...quit doing your nails and answer the dang phone already....don't make me come down there!

Cheers all....
