I have referred to George's knowledge about BIAB many times. He gives us the benefit of his study and experience and his compassionate concern for his fellow steelers without any expectation of monetary return

George is one of the good guys!

Don, do you think we could give him some questions ahead of time?

I would like to hear a discussion of how to create endings to songs other than what the program generates automatically.

Also any info on modifying the styles.

Steve and Larry, I am sure that George will be more than glad to answer all of your questions in the chat session. This gives everyone the benefit of receiving the same information, as I am sure there are others needing this info also. Hope to see you guys there

You can also check out George's website http://www.gwixon.com/ he has a huge amount of great info there.

Steve, tell Philip I have done worn a hole in the middle of that CD!!!

Hi All,
Thanks for the kind words on the help and my site.
One of the things I'll try ro add to my site before Tuesday night will be to have some common type of endings with sound clips of them so that you can click on the clip and listen to the ending and the screen shot of what the ending looks like would be shown as well.
I'm curious to know why you can't get a tag to work. I use tags all the time and have yet to have a problem. But that's just me and perhaps I over looked something in the help section on adding a tag.
Looking forward to Tuesday.
George

Well, I for one have been waiting on this one for a long time. George has one of the best web sites available for folks in this forum, with respect to BIAB. He's an expert by any stretch. You can bet this old phat boy's gonna' be tuned in. Lots of folks using biab now a days, and this guy has the ability to really make it understandable. Cya George and forumites. b0b thanks for making this available for us to use to schedule these seminars.

To all,
You are more than welcome.
I learned something I didn't know as well from B0B, thanks BOB for the info on the pedal bass.
As I had talked about I will be adding a section on the use of coda's and that should be up by this weekend.
Don, Thank you for the invite. It was a pleasure.
George

I've been usin BIAB for a couple of years now and never could figure out how to make a song end on the last chord and have it hold for as long as you want it too until I tuned in to the chat and found out how easy it was. Thanks George for a great chat.
