Suggest playing bingo and you’ll either see people’s faces light up at the prospect or look like you’ve just suggested something horrible. In regard to the latter type, that’s probably because their experience of bingo is being dragged into a room full of chain-smoking, purple-haired, false-teeth wearing grannies.

However, the reason why so many people’s faces light up at the mention of the word bingo is that it has come a long way since those dark days; indeed it has grown into a global gaming phenomenon that is enjoyed by all ages, sexes and a variety of world cultures. The main reason that it has become so popular is the move away from the traditional bingo hall setting as it has now firmly embraced the online revolution. Courtesy of computers, tablets and mobile phones, you can sneak a game in whenever and wherever you feel like it, whether that’s at home from the comfort of your armchair or from the local park. Just imagine when your little one has gone to sleep on you and you’re just looking for a little fun without being able to get up. Or you can go to the other end of the scale and invite your friends round and have an online bingo girly night-in whilst the kids are sleeping upstairs.

My daughter has a friend who’s father is into music. The dad can sing well and even play some instruments! During the birthday celebration of that kid, I had a chance to give the dad a thumbs up after he performed a song for his daughter. That is where I learned that he also wants his two children to be musically inclined. In fact, to jump start this, he is looking at purchasing a set of Spaun Drums. I, too, had inclinations with drums. I feel that girls who play drums are very very cool. But you know, music is not really fond of me.

Lucky children, their dad and music are friends!

It made me wonder how those who produce cd of singers make it. Now I sort of understand. The recording happens in a studio where several people are in, including sound engineers, who manipulates and mans the different systems in there. Amazing eh? It gets more amazing these people actually put together what was recorded. I bet they use antares software at musicians friend.

I wonder what course in college do these people get to land to this kind of job. Do you know?
