Hi,
   I'm also a new player, and newcomer to the list.  I've been playing
australian/english/scottish/irish/spanish etc folk music for many
years on whistles and whistle type things, and am now adding button
accordion (having bought one on Saturday) (oldish Hohner, C-G, large
red box).  I'm also a singer and am hoping to be able to accompany
myself (tricky to do on a tin whistle :)

Coming from a melody only background - I'm realy fighting my left hand
at the moment!

I joined the list looking for info and chat, and , while the list is
fairly quiet, it seems supportive enough. (of, course, you could now
prove me quite wrong :)

<lurk on>

regards,
Martin
