john1000 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Swopped a PC I built, for a Yamaha guitar with a friend. Never played any musical piece before but always on my bucket list. . As usual its something I wanted to do but never got around to do. YouTube vids will help but ultimately a few lessons seem like a good idea.

KhunDon Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Used to play guitar and piano, but that was years ago. My kid has taken them up now and it turns out he’s very good and has a good singing voice to go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Spice Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Gave guitar a try many moons ago, but I wasn't really good at it... In fact it was more for "girl pick up" purpose than anything else. And I have a horrible voice ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelers4Life Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Been playing guitar for going on 40 years. Taught myself how to play by ear. Can't read a lick of music, but don't need to really. Contimplating buying another electric (sold the one I had years ago) to play in addition to my acoustic. Great hobby to have if you stick with it.

Lirchenfeld Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Played bass in a grammar school band. We played grindcore/death metal. Called ourselves "Brutal Yugoslavian Anal Diplomacy" - It was in the mid 90's at the height of the war in Balkan. None of us could play. Wrote a few songs Wednesday night and drew the picture of 2 gay leg amputees butt fucking eachother on some white t-shirts - rehersed drank a ton of beers thursday night - made an improvised gig in the school cafeteria friday night. Disbanded saturday morning. It was chick magnete for the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yessongs Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 My Son is pretty good, he is teaching wifey how to play "Kashmir" by Zeppelin LOL! I played Drums back in the 70's...my parents hated me. Just for kicks last week-end, went with my Son into "Guitar Center" as he needed to pick up a new set of strings....they have quite an extensive set of Drums you can play. I went over to the "Ludwigs" and started playing away.....timing is really bad these days LOL! Of course this young guy pulls in next to me, just starts shredding away on the " Sonors" started chattng with him a bit. Tells me he has been playing for 10 years now, has a side band just for kicks. He also tells me "Ludwigs are old school" ☹️ 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
