I'd like to thank everyone of my extended family here on the forums fer always keepin' the fire stoked!

Yeah.. I don't post much anymore but I do watch from a distance like a creepy stalker!!!!

Alright everybody that is all for now, have a great day!

Congrats Simon! Great read! I remember when I sounded young, hip and cool.

Nice job Simon! I tried for that one too but I'm glad you got it--your read was "hipper"--you've got that great style.

Congrats and Cheers!

Why am I not at all surprised?

When I read for this I actually thought this would be dead-on perfect for you, Simon! Way to go! That's GREAT! May this be the first of many more!

Simon --
This is the first time I've heard you -- you are so "it"! There should be LOTS out there for you. Great distinctive, young hip sound.
Congrats and keep it going!

Nice one Simon. If I was a blind bartender, I'd never serve you a beer with that voice...
I'd probably also make alot of really strong drinks seeing as I couldn't see...
Okay, I'm confused now, but nice job!

Kudos to everybody for stoppin' by. You Americans are so cool with your accents! It's interesting how differently we say things. I say "sorry" you say "sawry".

The session was an hour long today and the direction I had over the phone was awesome! I've attached an update of the 3 best takes from today with the excellent direction I was given by the folk at zipit.com down in North Carolina. They knew exactly how they wanted me to sound. I guess the only thing left to do is keep our ears open watchin' the tele in the near future Smile

Thanks again everyone..

S-nut Outtttt!
