What's up,

Bob from FU MANCHU and PlayThisRiff.com here. I don't know if you saw a few weeks ago, but I put up a message on the members section of PlayThisRiff.com about Skype guitar lessons.

In case you don't know, Skype is like a video telephone. If you do know what it is then I now sound like a jackass.

It works like a charm... in real time! Yesterday I jammed out "King of The Road" with a guy in Birmingham, Alabama; I taught a guy in Helsinki how to improvise using pentatonic scales; I taught a guy "Number Of The Beast" in Edmonton, Canada; I walked a guy from Santa Cruz through his gear set up; and I played "Saturn III" with a drummer from Houston, Texas. Insane!!!!!!!!!!!

If this is something you may be interested in please let me know as soon as possible. I know the Skype time slots are going to fill up fast!

Feel free to e-mail me at PlayThisRiff@gmail.com to set up your time today!

Here is a link to download the Skype application: http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/home

Let's rock out today... in different parts of the world!!!!!!!!!!
