Mike Rudd & Bill Putt's Classifieds
For a musician, every day's a holiday. Sounds idyllic doesn't it? But, believe it or not, there are days when one feels that one could do more - not only do more, but enjoy doing more. Not to mention that lolling about in one's own excrement can get, well, boring. The solution could be to put all that latent talent to good use. Why not write a jingle or two to keep the wolves from the door? Why not tell people that you teach harmonica? Why not sell some of those pieces of equipment you keep tripping over? The only slightly intriguing answers to these rhetorical questions lie below.

Mike and Bill's tutorials
So, you want to learn to play harmonica - or perhaps guitar?
Have I told you that I teach blues harp (that's harmonica to you)? If you've always been fascinated by the harmonica and you'd like to learn - especially from scratch - you can attend your own individually tailored Mike Rudd Blues Harp course right here in the plush surrounds of the Accidental Music Studio in Camberwell. Or you might have always hankered to play guitar Mike can take you from a rank learner to quite a bit better than that in whatever time it takes you to learn things. Why not get in touch?

As already mentioned, Bill has a thriving guitar teaching business going, covering guitars of all persuasions, including: bass guitar, classical and down-tuned nylon-string guitars, and lap-steel (pic). He'll even come to your place and teach you in the comfort of your own home! Give him a call on 0412 155 136 and arrange your lessons, today.

 

Mike and Bill's School Music Workshops
Yes, these gifted old duffers will come to your school or sheltered workshop and set up their equipment in front of the students, explaining things as they go and asking for directions to the toilets. Then they'll play a selection of their own songs and instrumentals and break them down to illustrate their points on song writing, as well as explaining the often-mysterious differences between playing live on stage and recording in a studio.
Mike and Bill are happy to interact with the students (in the nicest possible way, of course) and answer questions about all aspects of music playing and presentation, as well as give what they fondly imagine to be relevant thoughts on lifestyle and health issues – i.e. hearing loss, drugs etc. If nothing else it will be a salutary warning to the children about what to expect should they embark on a career playing music.

Let Mike create your musical jingles..
I've obviously got far too much spare time, so I'm offering myself as a over-qualified jingle writer and producer, using the Accidental Music Studio here in leafy Camberwell as my base. sample Voice-overs are a distinct possibility too, not to mention demos for aspiring singers or (smallish) combos - basically bloody anything's up for grabs. I shouldn't forget my partner Bill here, either. Read the guff on Bill if you're interested in learning guitar or bass guitar
 
The real Classifieds - Data transfer switch



What the hell is a Data Transfer Switch? With recent changes to my network, I now find that the Data switch (pic) I used to switch from one PC to the other sharing the same monitor is redundant, so I'm offering it at a stupid $20.00 AUD for someone in Australia. Check out back view
