Hi, I am new to board.

I am from Manchester , England and love MMj so much. I love a lot of similar music and Americana style music like The Band, Neil Young, Dylan, etc. I love Lynyrd Skynyrd. I also love lots of other music like Big Star, The Byrds, led Zepplin , Jeff Buckley and British groups like the Stones, Zep, The Smiths, The Stone Roses, Joy Division and New Order.

Theres too many bands to list here.

I look foward to contirbuting to the board.

Thanks ,

James

Hi James, nice to meet you. Welcome to the board. There are a few of us Brits here. We're hoping for a tour this summer. Have you seen them live?

I just downloaded this SBD show from The Band last night. It sounds great. Get it if you don't already have it.

Hi James, welcome to the board!
You seem to have a fine taste in music and you love Big Star too, that's pretty cool.

Oh yeah doctorinthehouse, I watched the game too, I'm kind of a Man U supporter  8).
It seems there's a lot of work for Newcastle...hope it betters soon for you. All respect for Allan Shearer though, he's still great!

Thanks, Chills. Shearer is the greatest, and you're right, there's a lot to do. Just wish some of them would stop acting like idiots.

Yes, I support MUFC and watched the game. I have attended many matches at Old Trafford in the last few years being a season ticket holder and membership holder. Seen them in all their victories in Europe in the 90's, like when they beat juventus at home and when they beat Porto 4-0 (was it 4 or 5).

Thanks for the message.

Welcome aboard pal,

I'm from England too, there seems to be quite a few of us here.

Let's all just hope that the boys tour over here again soon. I missed them last time and I'm really gutted about it.

By the way, I would like to agree with everyone who has said that you have a great taste in music. It's pretty much identical to mine.
