A friend of mine on another writing site spoke favorably of myLot, so I thought I'd join. I'm happy with my initial look around, I must say. What better place to start than an introduction. I'm a music geek. Country music (COUNTRY music, not that pop, rap, and "hick-hop" they laughingly call "country music" today) is the music of my soul, but that doesn't mean that I won't tell you that I think London Calling by the Clash was one of the best albums of the 70's! I write and give presentations on a music in a more scholarly fashion, but that doesn't mean I won't gush about something I love. My all-time favorite singer is Jim Reeves, which is where the name "Four Walls" comes from (it was a big hit for him in 1957 and is considered to be the song that launched the so-called "Nashville sound" era of country music). When it comes to music, I'm extremely opinionated. If I don't like something, I'll gladly tell you -- just don't take it personally, because it's not you, it's the song/singer/ Hoist anchor (I'm a Navy veteran, so that seems the appropriate thing to say), let's get this voyage underway!!

Hello and I have to ask, what site did you come from? Was it Bubblews or Persona Paper. And what is your user name on either of those sites. I am just curious. Maybe I referred to here. maybe someone else did. You are going to love MyLot. Believe me.

Acturally, both. I'm more active on PP than Bubblews, but I have accounts on both sites.

@FourWalls Okay, that's cool. I am with Bubblews and Persona Paper also. Now the question is, what name do you go by on those sites?

@inertia4 I'm Four Walls there, too. I keep the same name so people can either find me or avoid me.

Welcome aboard, sailor! Some of us have been here a long time (I joined in October 2006, six months after the site was launched, and a few have been here longer) but we always welcome new hands. My taste in music is eclectic but, in particular, Folk (especially British and American traditional music) and what I don't know about Country Music could probably be written on the back of a whale (in VERY small writing). Anyway, welcome to MyLot. I hope you enjoy it here. It has something, I believe, which those other two sites don't. What that is, you'll maybe discover for yourself!
