First time I went saw a play too, mistake, even though my Russian is not so shabby, there's no way I could keep up with a play. I remember it as being called 'Taksist' - i.e. taxi driver, but the current mrs stek said it had a longer title and I forgot what she said it was.
Still, loved it even though I was not really following it...
But the ballet - wow - and me coming from the arse end of Bolton. Still love ballet....Comment

The old boy was finance head of Scottish Opera for a while, Pavarotti played and he got a front row ticket with my mother and I asked him if I could go with him and he said no. Swine, never forgive him for that.Comment

Piano to me is about getting chords sounding good "let's take that chord, drop the root on the right, play the 7th & 11th with the left, don't sound good, hit the 9th, na, drop the 3rd out on the right, OK got it, which chord do I move to now..." and it all starts again. Complicated.

Guitar and ukelele. Started off with a passion for George Formby, as he was born down the road from my parents so a local point of interest for me.
Progressed on guitar. Now own a reasonable collection of guitars... '65 Antoria Jumbo, Taylor semi acoustic, late 90's Fender USA Strat etc
Was the lead singer and rhythm guitarist in a band in the early to mid 90's who gigged and did some studio stuff - chatted with Richard Ashcroft several times in the Wigan based recording studios...Comment
