eti. Nice name. Short and sweet. Tell us about yourself, if you would. Nothing personal, of course. :shock:

Thanks, asterisk

eti stands for "extra terrestrial intelligence," or so I'd like to think.

Became a fan of Bill Nelson's in the '80s. I'm a guitar player, singer, composer of sorts.

Back in the day, I was lucky enough to meet Paul Reynolds of A Flock Of Seagulls when they
first toured the US. He mentioned Bill Nelson as being a big influence on his playing. Vistamix
started getting airplay here not too long after. I saw Bill on the Vistamix tour and he made a
profound impression. In particular I recall his encore; just him and a guitar, playing wildly, detuning
strings, taking out his frustration with the awful electricity in the place (literally; you could hear
country music coming out of the amplifiers at any quiet moment). It was the singularly most amazing
guitar performance I'd ever seen. Did he/does he do that often?

During the '80s I would buy anything I found that had his name on it (Red Noise, soundtracks,
Northern Dream, etc.) In the early '90s I (finally) discovered Be Bop Deluxe, and continued buying anything
Bill Nelson related that came past my radar. I'm relatively out-of-touch with new music these days,
but maybe being here will help me keep up, or catch up, with Bill's music.

Thanks for the warm welcomes

Don't be silly. He's far more mature these days. You might catch him climbing inside a piano though :wink:

Welcome to Bill's Place!

I understand he climbs steps everyday in his home if that helps add to his mystique. :lol:
