Title: The mysterious Tone
Post by: Jess on May 22, 2013, 04:07:02 PM
Hello all, I have a question...
Who is this mysterious Tone? Everyone talks about him/her/ them and I feel, as I've been part of this forum since January, I need to know who this person is...they sound like the forum's God...:)
Oh and if Tone reads this...hi...

Hi Jess.

The forum's god? Well, shucks.

Not quite a deity, just the person who started this fabulous community. I get a lot of credit for it, but actually, it's you lot that make it the brilliant place it is.

So THANK YOU :D :D :D

PS I'm a 'him' ;p

Maybe we need someone to write a little forum history page, saying how it all started, who joined first, who our longest serving, active 'Ken Barlow' member is..etc. :D

It could have a 'family tree' with all the mods and maybe an explanation of who 'Little Bill' really is.. :o

It could be there as a sticky topic so we don't forget it and newbies could get directed there when they join.

hab..

Hahaha, sometimes i also like to refer to Tone as the big man upstairs...

as he created this beautiful playground and creative space for songwriters from all over the planet

which is giving me a lot of new collaborations and ideas for music

but actually, Jess, Tone is very nice and approachable, and not even snobby, considering he rules thé songwriting universe  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

and btw, you are very cool too, IMO, Jess, you have become one of the most active and contributing forumites in a very short period

Firstly, sorry to disappoint...but looks like I opened up a new porthole of Wikipedia pages about Hums for you both, so life's still good
Secondly, I swear his name gets more elaborate every post...'golden handed digital deity'...in fact, I think we've got Tone's new username...;D
