I'm thankful for the many friends here on the PGMusic forum, who have enriched my life by sharing their music and their creative ideas so freely! I hope the friendship and creative collaboration continue for many years to come!

I'm also thankful for the amazing software that brings us all together in one place! Thanks to Peter Gannon and all of the people at PG Music for adding such value to my life, and to the lives of everyone who uses their products!

1rst, I am so very thankful for my wife. Met her 50 years ago Nov 21.
Married 49 years ago last may.
We had some very hard times in early years, but with guidance, luck, hard work
and blessings have had a good life.

As above am thankful for the folks on PG forums. Their mentoring, guidance
and steering things in right directions.
Grateful for all the work that PG Music folks do for us, and way we are treated.

The BIAB system is a unique piece of software that has contributed more "fun",
joy and music all over the world.

Sorry bout mushy stuff, but its important.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you folks from Frank and Tessie.

Of course I am most thankful for my family and friends.
As to music gear I am thankful for it is BIAB.
It has changed my life.
I have been retired for several years (band teacher) and immediately
after retiring I began play and arrange songs using BIAB.
Gigging after retirement was mostly senior centers and retirement
homes. I soon realized the live musicians that were hiring me were
not as good as the real band "players".
I set out to create one hour performances so I could do solo
presentations. To date it has been most rewarding. My set lists and
arrangements are constantly changing which keeps me very involved.
I have 4 locations where I perform at least once a month and
several others that call periodically.
Yesterday alone I had 3 one hour gigs.
Happy Thanksgiving to all...

"Music gear to be thankful for."



We have a ton of really cool gear, but none of it has the value that that little hard drive has. You know, the one with BIAB/RB on it. grin


Happy Thanksgiving to Peter and the entire crew.


Regards,

Bob

Every year I live I find I have more to be thankful for.
A great partner, lovely daughters, fantastic grandchildren.
Unbelievable friends, and also unmet "friends" on this forum.
The "gift" of music ability to play a number of instruments and the musical accomplishments past, present, and future.
Being able to afford the musical "toys" such as: guitars, mandolin, fiddle, PA, recording gear and BIAB.
And most importantly that I live in North America where all this opportunity and freedom exists. Have an enjoyble Thanksgiving! DennisD
