no activity?

1999-10-30 by Dennis Schürger

hi everybody out there,
i see no activity out here, so i had to post this mail. ( it may have no sense, but somebody had to write something!)
this community has exactly 51 members, but only a minority of them seem to JOIN this community!! hey we all use sidstations, so normally we have something to discuss about, even if nothing really problematic is to dicuss, we could talk to each other and just communicate and talk about everything, which is connected to a musicians life........... okay this is an elektron-users mailing list, and normally we should discuss about sid specific problems, but it would be a lot of more fun (especially for me personally) if we could hear the sidstation in context with user-made music, but  i don\ufffdt really know if this is possible in this mailing list. even if his may sound idiotic, i want to get in contact with other musicians using the sid,and maybe not only the sid.......
anyway, joeri created this mailing list to form a platform for the community of sid users and musicians,and i think we should form a community, but i don\ufffdt think it is a community, if only 10 people out of 51 get in contact to each other, even if they join the same mailing list of only a few sidstation users. (and this community should be overviewable, because there won\ufffdt be as many sid users as users of a juno 106 or mc 303 anyway) we use a quite unique instrument, and i think you have to be a lover of the sid if you buy the sidstation and this should be enough to get connected............ (this should at least be enough!!) 
so after this mail some subscribers will call me an idiot, because i\ufffdm so engaged in getting in contact, but this could be a good start to form a specific musicians platform, because of the limited membership ( i don\ufffdt really know how many sidstations already have been sold, and how many are in stock to be sold, but maybe daniel could inform us about this ( i\ufffdm really intrested in this!), 
this could become a more closer forum, than all those musicians mailing lists with thousands of subscribers.
anyway i hope this mail has encouraged every member of this list to JOIN and maybe anybody still want to talk to me, even after this mail,
best regards,

dennis sch\ufffdrger
