Welcome to the group, Fabien. We're glad to have you. Bruce (bahllton) posted a link to your music in a previous thread. http://www.resohangout.com/group/weissenbornplayers/blog/812 I love your sound.

When you've got a minute, tell us a little about yourself and how you came to the Weissenborn. And again, welcome.

	Fabien says: 3/16/2013 9:18:35 AM Thanks Liz for your welcome. And thanks to Bruce for his kind words ! Tom, it seems you invited me in a charming place. I can't wait to share discoveries, experiences and time!! About Bruce, I'm afraid it will be like teaching his grand mother how to suck eggs ;)
	Liz Williams says: 3/16/2013 1:26:47 PM Fabien, you lost me with your "suck eggs" comment, although I'm sure I'll laugh out loud when you explain it. Meanwhile, it's spring. Surely someone is working up a new tune they can share here?
	Tom_Noe says: 3/16/2013 2:56:28 PM "Don't teach your grandmother how to suck eggs" is an old phrase that means don't try to show off what you think you know to someone who knows more. Fabien was commenting on my remark about him teaching this old dog new tricks. (Which I think he can do!)
	Liz Williams says: 3/16/2013 4:57:09 PM Thanks for that, Tom, and Fabien. Hilarious and slightly bizarre; my favorite combo. and hey, I just learned a new trick!
	Bob Blair says: 3/16/2013 9:04:42 PM Fabien I really enjoyed your work - welcome! "suck eggs and steal sheep" was an expression my father used to use sometimes! I've never heard the grandmother thing though - I love it. Almost as much as I love Fabien's playing.
