Yes, that's the man, Chris, better known as Tarq's. OK so he looks nothing like a sound engineer and this  picture has no relevance to this page, but what the hell, he managed to get onto the ski's, remain vertical (after what felt like 29 hours of tuition) and he's well proud of it.

Thanks to Mates

It has to be said that there are a couple of people who really influenced Tarq's  decision to get into this sound stuff.

First  and foremost is Mick Healey (see right). It was him who got Tarq's in front of an 8 channel Studio Master years ago. Mick's encouragement and enthusiasm to help others paid off. Special note to Mick--Thanks Mate, my bank manager want to meet you

Mick & Tarq's have been friends for over a decade, sharing the love of music, oh and alcohol !!. They also promoted Pianos' Unlimited, and work together on famous Wilby Music festivals.  Also they have got Pi**ed together more times than the Pope has said Amen.

The next person for a mention is Duncan from Phoenix soundworks. What a bloke, always has time for you explains everything, and always ready to help out when it hits the fan. Duncan has helped, encouraged, and taught Tarq's almost everything about sound engineering. Ta mate you are a star.
