You don't have to show your face (@boo), but it might be "nice" to see each other, hear each other, and have a forum in which we can chat about guitars, music, whatever, without it being dependant on Mark running a livestream?

 

@tv101 Are you on Instagram or WhatsApp Tony? If not, why not? 🤣 

I use it for real time comms with people around the world (in a private messaging/picture/audio/video/live video chat) and it works well for small groups at any one time. I’m willing to try it. 

Make guitars, not war 🌍✌️🎸

What about:

The Pick Up Joint (might need to recruit more female members for that to be a vote winner!)

The Tremolo Bar

@darrenking It sounds like a very seedy bar, I’m not sure our WAGS would like us going to that pub.🤣🤣🤣🤣

@darrenking It really does sound seedy, maybe the kind of place @e-den-hertog hangs out. 🤣 

It sounds like STI Central. 😱

Now it’s sounding a bit 80s pop - George Michael etc. Not my kind of bar. 🤣

@boo

I did help make a Backstage Pub called 'The Bell-end', that went behind Malcomb Young's Backline cages.

I had no part in selecting the name and intend to continue that trend.

Will PRS be involved? Best to invite their Reps to visit the Dungeon/Cellar.

Instagram = no.

Facebook = no.

Other common social media = no.

 

Whatsapp = yes.

 

Jitsi is just a video conferencing app. 

It works on any device/OS and will work in a browser if you don't want to (or can't) install apps on a device.  I've found it to be the most reliable (in that it doesn't assume that you live in MS world, or a Google world, or any other ecosystem) and undemanding (bandwidth).

I just thought it might help evolve (NOT replace) the community that's grown up here and around the livestreams, without it needing on-going time and support from Mark/Carol.  Maybe we could set-up sessions that happen *after* a livestream so we can continue the chat, or discuss some aspect of what Mark did, or (etc).
