| Why I'm Here |
Hi. I am a guy who lives in Oregon and is using my retirement to re-claim some of the musical parts of life that got lost when I got too busy being a grown-up. I started playing (badly) in high school and played in a vocal group in college. I fell in love with the sound of a 12-string and played a Kay. In recent years the Kay became un-playable, so when I decided to start playing again, I went for my dream instrument, a Martin D-12-28. :<)
While my profile has been listed under my first name (Norman, as on my credit card) I prefer to go by my middle name, Paul.
I guess it’s like anything else. When anything gives you joy, you want to do it better. One of my other passions is windsurfing, and every day on the water is a chance to improve. (Most people watching me would say I really need to improve.) What I most appreciate is the community of people who windsurf. We are all nuts in the same way and everyone wants to see everyone else sail well. TAC is much the same: everyone enjoys the progress that others make.
