It's amazing how many old musicians from back in the 60s are on Facebook.I just tracked down Willie MacCalder of Willie and The Walkers to try and find a copy of their hit "Diamonds And Gold" still waiting for a reply but should get one I hope,after all I was a huge fan of theirs.

Yesterday I tracked down the Buckinghams on FB and told them how they were one of my favourite groups and I just got a friend request from them.They still soung as good as thay did in the 60s.I hope they do some Canadian dates.

I've never been on facebook. Everyone around me is addicted to it. My daughter gets notices to her cell phone when anyone updates their account. I refuse to give in. I'd rather churn butter. :)

Is all the security hype as serious as some say it is? That kind of scares me off. Probably just as well I'd forget my pass word anyway. :)

I use it mostly to keep in touch or establish new links with old friends plus there some society conscious sites such as Real Men Don't Hit Women etc. that I'm active in as well as some children's rights sites etc.It's great though to get on musician sites like Fender,Marshall,Vox,Vintage Guitar Mag. etc. and to link up with favourite musicians as I stated earlier.
