Hi everyone - I am joining somewhat under false pretenses as I am no longer based in UK. I was however, born and raised in London so I hope that gives me enough cover! I wanted to join the group as I am still interested in what goes on in the land of my birth AND it seems like the most happening group around!

One more item of news, I am going to see Bela Fleck tonight. He is appearing at Jazz Alley, Seattle with the Macus Roberts Trio. Needless to say - I am stoked, and feel very fortunate to live in a city where great music is so easy to find.

Laurence

	Laurence Diehl says: 9/7/2012 1:04:20 PM Thank you friends! Ian - sense of irony firmly in place, mate. There's a couple more great English pickers on the hangout named Ian and Joe! Joe - yeah, that entrance exam is a tuffy - bring the kettle to a full, rolling boil I believe? Andy - cheers mate! Same Queen right?

My Eldest son is based at Winsor Castle at present but my wife and I go down regularly to see both at present. Hope I can keep you informed on how things are going. Nolicks
