Sorry to hear about your job situation, I know the feeling. But a big well done on winkling out the Billy, no excuses now, get out there and stop trying to find an easy way to use the Etrac...there isn't one. Learn learn learn.

All that gym training you've got to do, and have a musical ear as well. It takes a special sort of person!

t's good when you get the hang of it. You can do a lot of indoor training on the emulator. Have you tried it?  ;)
