Band-in-a-Box File Sharing Group

Post by Bill Llewellyn »

For those interested, I just received an invitation to join the Band-in-a-Box File Sharing Group on Yahoo. I'm not affilliated with this thing at all, but I know that lots of steelers use BIAB so I though I'd pass this along. The URL is below:

I signed up and all I could get was a bunch of machine language on all the group sites.

Joe, I just signed up and everything I looked at seemed ok.
I didn't try any downloads, but I'll do that at a later time. It sounds
like you might have a browser setup problem, but I can't
say exactly what.....

Thanks for telling us about this.....there are hundreds of BIAB files at this site from standards to jazz, bluegrass, country etc....they can be easily downloaded and then must be unziped using a ZIP program...get one from tucows.com if you don't have one.

Then they can be played using the Band In A Box program. I just found the chords to a song I have been looking for. BIAB can print out a lead sheet for any of the songs. Open the song in BIAB and then just go to file/print songs/chords

I have often thought about buying a Band In The Box unit ---do I understand correctly that if I had one the above site allows members to exchange songs ? Where would be a good source to obtain one. Thanx Bill Myrick
