Well, I'm Ian
 

Hey guys. I'm Ian.

I'm pretty much into every aspect of music. I'm a musician, and I write, record, and produce my own songs. I have (of course) my share of opinions, and I keep a blog for that sort of thing. I really enjoy reading analysis and critique. And of course, I love to listen. Especially if there's guitar. I'm kind of big on guitar. Other than music, I love the outdoors. I live right next to a national park (Acadia), so I spend a decent amount of time hiking and whatnot.

I haven't really been up on the forum scene for quite a while, but I thought, hell, I really could use a place to chat. So, I found MusicBanter.

And that's about it, really.

Welcome

Hey welcome!

Hey Ian, what kind of music do you like to play?

Thanks, guys!

John: I mostly like to play hard rock-type music. Melodic, but with some good, heavy sounds. I can post a link, but I don't want to seem like I'm spamming, so I'll only do it if it's requested. You know, just to stay on everyone's good side.

Nice, welcome. What type of music do you listen to? If you dare to do so, drop some names.

Welcome to MB.

Thanks, 333 and AwwSugar.

And sure, I can drop some names. I tend to listen to a fairly wide range, though mostly all rock variants. Pre-2000s Metallica, Iron Maiden, The Offspring, 80s Def Leppard, a bit of Papa Roach, old Linkin Park (their first two albums), Pink Floyd, some Foo Fighters, Andrew W.K., some classics (Billie Joel, Elton John, The Eagles, America). My favorite bands are FAKE? and Oblivion Dust.
