Thanks, Mr. Kott.  Thanks for letting me join the group here.  I guess accordion is one of those things on my bucket list that I have decided now would be a good time to tackle.  I am particularly interested in the Roland V-Accordions - look like a bunch of fun, lots of different sounds, settings, etc. - I don't think I would ever get bored with it.  Do you happen to know anyone out in my neck of the woods that plays accordion that would be willing to give me a few in person pointers?  I know I live deep in the heart of "oom pah pah" country (I lumped it all together in a category - no offense to anyone) so I'm quite certain there is someone out here.

I am quite sure I will have some questions as I go along.  But first, I must get an accordion.  Back to my research and decision making....  I plan to visit Heritage Arts tomorrow and have my first real look at an accordion.  I'm very excited!

Thanks Daniel. I'm a Sax/Clarinet player and beginner accordion player. Have accordion players in a couple of my bands and love the instrument!

Will enjoy following all info and happenings through this site.

All the best, Pam
