Hello Chris welcome aboard.

Adelaide i see the soundwave concert is on there this weekend and the weekend after that is the futures big name line ups your way.

Any way this is about you and not me.

Enjoy your stay here and ask questions and i,m sure you will get the answers you need every thing from knobs to applied physics.

It all happens here.

Cheers Kev.
