Hey Arjun! Where you been?

surprised to see that you haven't mentioned The lamb lies down on broadway

Strangely I don't have any Genesis - I never got into them somehow. Probably Phil Collins.

a copy of 21st century schizoid man

Emailed. ?

BTW, are you going to do a Guitarforum.co.za theme? I'm surprised we haven't seen you in there yet.

Hey Alan,

Howzit? (Note the adoption of the traditional SA greeting..lol)...Long story short..been traveling extensively in India helping my brother out with one of his music projects. Will put up some of the stuff that i was part of during this period..as soon as he okays it ?. Also, had the experience of a lifetime...met Victor Wooten thanks to a good pal of mine who roped him in to work on his album a while back. If you do get the opportunity, please check out his album "Be the change". His name is Prasana and his playing very indian classical music influenced a la J McLaughlin. Since you get the whole fusion thing, i would suggest checking out the track titled "Bliss Factor (part 2)".
As for the theme song thing, Norio had told me about it...but the only screw-up is that i can't play bass or drums...n i'd told him that if you were ok with it, i'd very much like to meet up with you and try a few ideas out...And i read a few threads about having a backing track and then everybody working their solos and stuff over it...i think thats a pretty cool idea..but IMO that might end up being too long for a theme song (but it would work out perfectly for a "Saturday night in Bombay" sorta thing...he he)
Also, i wrote Norio about doing a sort of lick-a-week lesson section (or something in those lines)...i'm no good at pitching ideas, but if you could kickstart something like that, i'm sure a lot of people on the forum will be able to follow up on that..let me know what u think...
Another thing.. (i know i'm blabbing my head off..sorry, mate..haven't been on here in a long while)..i need your help to find somebody/anybody selling Dimarzio pups..i'm specifically looking for a tone zone and an air norton..i'd appreciate you help in this concern..cheers and keep well bro.

Peace
