Hey all,

I was introduced to Mudcafe by my sweetheart, KatRose. Some of you may reconise my nick from Paltalk were Katrose and I hosted the best "Live music" room.

I am an Englishman, now living in Texas with KatRose, I play acoustic 12string and enjoy all types of music.

I spent my early years touring with a band around Europe, never got famous, just lots of hangovers and very broke - had to enter "The real world" and get a job. It was listening to Paltalk that encouraged me to get back into my music and have now started writing my own songs again after an absence of twenty years.

I am looking foward to being a part of this group and hope I can make some worthwhile contributions.

You are not the only Brit living in exile. But tell me, what language did you have to learn to communicate with the folks in Texas? Welcome to Mudcat.

Glad to have you here, Simply. Pop in to Mudchat and say hello... Englishmen and Texans (except for one of the most famous) are always welcome there, and none of us speak with an accent.

Hiya simply Sung...
Lorcan "Larry" Otway here, Anglo Irish American living in New York... check out the Sorcha Dorcha and InOBU threads to see what I've been up to musically, and if you buy the mudcat CD you will get two of my songs, Engine 33 about the loss of ten lads from out local firehouse on Sept. 11, and Yvette's Song about the forced assimilation of Canadian natives... BUT as a welcome in, being that it is local postage,... you win two Sorcha Dorcha CDs... drop me a PM with a snail mail address and I will send them on to you.
Cheers , welcome to the bughouse

SS - (I'm fairly new to this group too) Don't give up hope! I spent my childhood in San Angelo TX but the family moved to Minnesota when I was 14. It took many years of therapy to overcome the culture shock but I did it. Y'all.

Hi Simply Sung. I am new to the group also and didn't intro myself (duh!) I am exiled here in this fine Country from Scotland.
This is a wonderful place with some great people full of a LOT of knowledge. I live in Maine a lonnnng way from Texas!!!!!
I have been out of circulation for the last year and have not been around Musicians during that time, then a friend said I should go and look at Mudcat,I did and it is like a breath of very fresh air. Hope you enjoy yourself and make many new friends.

Welcome. Interesting nickname there, Simply Sung. Maybe I'll change my name to "Poorly Played". Or maybe "Barely Understood".

Hi there, and g'day. I met a woman from London who had lived in Texas awhile and guessed from her accent she was Australian. I'm in Kentucky, but people have always complained I don't speak it right. My mother the english professor warped my speach patterns, and I sound like Garfield the cartoon cat.
