Hey i am not a fan of going out and buying music books and sheet music. I have been downloading them off the internet and printing them out. However i have not found a GREAT site. Music-scores.com is pretty good but i wanna see if they have full manuscripts of maybe contempory songs. That would be cool to play. Anyways i also like screwing around on these forums. SO DOES ANYONE USE AIM? I DO AND TELL ME YOUR SN!!

Later.

What`s AIM?
