Smaller Indiana

Making people and ideas findable

Contact me or follow-up on this discussion if you want to jam, or want to drag me along to see local live music - or just write about this stuff. In whatever spare time we have... I'm in Bloomington but often work in Indy - Haven't touched instruments for 8 yrs. Played, composed, and performed music of all types, can't sight read, gigged semi-professionally - bar bands and cheesy studio work. Guitar / Synth / MIDI for 35 yrs. Have some equipment - now classified as "vintage"... when did THAT happen?...

I like all styles of music -but read TMI below only if you care about specific interests and influences... for more info visit www.MySpace.com/thomashume

3. We want to see your smiling face...Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

4. Events should be posted in the events calendar, not inside blog posts

5. Please do NOT post commercial video (demo reels), or Corporate Website promotions in your blog
