Hello everyone. I am also new to the forum and this site. I look forward to gaining wisdom and insight from the forum and possibly add my opinion every once in a while.

During my younger times, I struggled at times playing solo until bands were formed and went from there. During break-ups of bands was when I first learned of backing tracks and BIAB. I used BIAB when the first editions came out because I was solo at that time, but migrated away from it once another band of the day was formed. So now that I am solo again and retired (looks like I resemble that pseudo "Old Man" genre at 63...LOL).

I do have all the stage equipment and in past doing solo performances I have been using my Yamaha with highly modified MIDI files for my accompaniment, to which I normally play my LP's and Tak's to. I carry my entire library (677 files) around with me on two USB flash drives (once one breaks at a performance, you learn really quickly to have a back-up, which that night I didn't...VERY awkward indeed).

Anyhow, I look forward to all your posts and comments. Thanking you all in advance for any insight.

Cheers,

Don
