Hi all, I'm the FNG. I started taking a guitar class a few weeks ago from the local community college. Finally getting some callouses so that I can play / practice longer. I know the I - IV - V7 chords in the keys of G, D and A. That was on my midterm. Looking forward to learning a lot more.

Careful, fella. That's vaguely guitar related material. Gotta do 5,000 posts normally before you can even put the word 'guitar' in a post around here.
Welcome.

Are you of the Newport Theblanks? We could use some old money around here.

I could use some new money, John. I do not care in the slightest about its age.
Welcome, Phil. Why is it I think that may not be your real name? LJ

HI new guy.
Just wanna welcome you. I am one of the distaff members here on the forum.
We have some very strict rules around here, so I am letting you in on them so you don't make any mistakes.
1st and formost, if you are in the chatroom, empty your own ashtrays, and don't spill beer on the zebra couch. There is an Egyptian Goddess who resides here and she gets pissy when the room is a mess.
Oh yeah, the new guy buys the beer.
Seriously though, welcome. You will find this group of folks to be very accomodating willing to help anyone with their questions about the guitars and how to play them.
So, tell us about your guitar.

Hi Phil, welcome to the Monkey House, a place for civilized and occasionally armed-to-the-teeth political debate, gorgeous photography, weather reports, news of the weird, exotic recipes, Canadian content, viral and benign videos, and occasional talk about that musical instrument... you know, usually sits on your lap or hangs from a strap on your shoulder, sticks out further at one end than at the other, typically made of wood (don't let the Cargo Cult get you)... damn, I knew what it was a minute ago... starts with a G, ends with an Ebm7b5, for most of us, anyway... you know, THAT instrument.
(on edit) Forgot sports and pointless technology... and beer.

Are you of the Newport Theblanks? We could use some old money around here. As long as he isn't of the Bakersfield Theblanks. Those guys use wear white after labor day.

I could use some new money, John. I do not care in the slightest about its age. One thing I've always liked about you is your total lack of discrimination. In fact, I'd say it was a requirement.

Careful with the wardrobe criticisms. We don't want to scare him away until after he buys the beer.

Welcome to the Soundhole, sometimes the black-hole, sometimes some other hole. Stick to guitar for awhile and you won't get hurt. Play Sor's Study in Bm and we'll introduce you to J.

Welcome
Nobody mentioned the most important topic we discuss here- BACON.
Yes!, FNG buys the beer, and none of that limp wrist lager, a nice brown ale please.
Don't step on the lion goddesses tail, she's cranky enough already.

I was a new guy once.... after a while I didn't feel so bad about all my hopes and dreams being shattered on my own as I found out others are here to help with said shattering... I have a G string on one guitar.
Oh and welcome and good luck... Just sayin'.

Oh, I forgot about that Lonnie. The official greetings to all new potential cult members...
Cargo CULT, Cargo CULT, Cargo CULT... (when the old marine guy shows and asks you to dance sans duds around the fire, REALLY, IT'S OKAY....)
And Kram - the guitar with the g-string must be one hot guitar.... pictures please.
