Hi folks, havn't been around much lately due to ongoing health problems.Had a swollen LH lower abdomen area since a few weeks and last week I had some really bad chest pains. Ended up in hospital last week. They did a CT scan and discovered my abdomen had separated. They can't do anything. My main quest is to lose as much weight as I can to help heal it.
Because of this I won't be playing much of my accordions as their weight is rather heavy. However, I'm getting to grips with the amazing Tyros 5 keyboard and it's such a joy to play it, even if my left hand needs much much more practise.

It won't stop me doing my two radio shows either which I really love doing. I'm still on the lookout for easy listening material to use on my Easy does it show. I'll play any form of genre as long as it's relaxing on the ears. Country, jazz, pop ballads, classical, opera, musicals etc.....

Send me a PM if you're interested and I'd love to include your music / songs. I've featured a few biab members over the last few weeks, so feel free to drop me a message.

Take care dear friends the world's not in a good place just now

You might consider getting the electronic version of the Fast 80 by Michael Mosley? I'm a big fan of intermittent fasting, specifically only eating between certain times. He's the author of the 5:2 diet but this includes a lot of new material related to other concepts. I have a couple of friends on it who have lost 4 kg in 2 weeks and one has now lost nearly 8 kg in less than 4 weeks. That's better than I achieved on a 5 day fast (which I did purely for interest). It has recipes and doesn't really include full-on fasting as even at it's toughest you're eating 800 calories of pretty tasty food. Anyway, from someone who's gone from 103 kg to 85 kg (still obese) it might help. I'm planning to embark on a variation of it shortly. Still reading the book. It also helps answer some of those nagging questions dieters always have or are faced with.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
