I just wanted to say 'hi.' My name is Austin.

I am from Oregon, where I am completing a PhD in British history. I play drums, bass, guitar, piano, and ukulele. I love playing Scorpions songs on all of these instruments--especially ukulele!

I am a big fan of almost all periods of Scorpions music, but especially the period b/w '79 and '93. I missed them when they came to the West Coast last year, but I will not miss them in 2012!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to making new friends here.

The only power I have is the ability to play the solo to "Big City Nights" on the ukulele. :)

Welcome to the forum Austin, this place is full of wonderful, funny and interesting people from all parts of the world, with one extra good quality: DIE HARD SCORPIONS FANS... 8)

It is so cool to be able to play all Scorpions song on those instruments...I would want to play "When the Smoke.." on the guitar sooo bad... :(

Rock on!

Thanks, Adriana, Gabi, and Leb Yellow Butterfly! I'm very touched to meet new Scorpions fans from around the world, since there aren't many people in my neighborhood who think putting on "Lovedrive" and playing along is 'fun.' Thanks!

Anyway, DeepandDark--I will definitely post some clips of my Scorpions playing on the uke. I want to get a few more dazzling pieces under my belt before I try to show off. ;)

I know the Scorps are winding down their career, but it's great to meet a bunch of people who have been brought together by this German rock band. Danke schoen for the warm welcome!

Bitte sehr! Do you speak German well? We have a topic "Sprechen Sie Deutsch?". Although people who usually posted there seemed to have forgotten about it. :roll: I'd like to revive it again. And then they may happen to notice it, and drop a line. :wink:

Btw, call me Galya. :wink:
