How do I reach MattMattMatt who attempted to answer my question about garage band?

Question

I am having trouble removing a part of an instrumental track (within a region, not at the beginning or end of the whole track).  MattMattMatt sent me this answer:
Put the big vertical pointer at the view point where you've had enough.  Make a cut (Command T). 
Ok, so far, so good.
Next, click anywhere else in the work area to deselect and then select the part you want to remove, and click it and delete.
Click what anywhere else?  The vertical pointer?  Use a choice in the Edit menu  (cut? split?) ?  What should happen on the screen at this point?
I've tried several things.  Whatever I do when I click delete, the whole track (region) disappears.  I start again...... no progress.  I think I need a little more detail in the procedure you are describing to me.  Forgive me, I'm new to Garage Band and so far it's been trial and error learning.

I thought I heard someone call my name.

Great. To confirm, where there was once one musical region, there should now be two subdivisions, one to the left and one to the right of where you cut it.

No problem. Hopefully this will clarify.
After you've done the Command T and split the track where you want to split it, you want to refresh your clicker in advance of selecting and tossing the particular region you want to toss.
So...
move your cursor into the Neutral Region, the gray work area in the middle of the GB workspace where there are no tracks (and it likely says "Drag Apple Loops Here") and just click your mouse.
You're basically telling anything else that happens to think it's clicked to unclick. At this point, nothing should be selected.
Then, go back to your original region that you've split into two with the Command T. Of those two region, click on the one you want to get rid of. It will light up, telling you it's selected.
Then, click delete on your keyboard, and the selected region - and only the selected region - should dissapear.
