The musician's thread

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH]

So basically, are their any musicians amongst you fine people ?
I mean, any instrument, guitar, flute, theremin, Ocarina of Time, etc


Personally, I've played the violin for the past 16 years, the piano for about the same time (not counting banging around the family piano when I was a wee lad). I'm a decent drummer and can wang a few tunes on a guitar.
I also make a lot of music on my laptop for myself and friends.

If we get enough musicians, we could start a DYKG band

[PikaPikari]

I've been playing cello for 7 years and percussion for 4
Oh..I also played clarinet for a year...but that went horribly.

[BumblebeeCody]

I played guitar for 7 years. A bit of drums and dabbled on piano (will get back into that).
All I do know is play the Guitar Hero, the keys of my computer keyboard and bang the crap out of my arcade stick......but I still listen to music everyday. I just have no spark left....like a Charmanders tail flame going out.

16 years though, that's pretty damn good. Did you do your grades?

[Mr.Holmes]

I sing.... And I was percussion for 4 years until they kicked me out of the band for being unruly.

Ha, I suppose you can add Guitar Hero to the list

Yeah, sneaked my way up the grades in secondary school. Happy that they're finished though, by the end of it, the scales were ridiculous.
"Can you do a B-sharp pentatonic minor ?" "Err.... NOPE."

Fun Fact - My violin is 122 years old

Cellos are awesome - Though they're a bitch to carry round, I think that's one of the reasons my parents gave me a violin

We're going to need some details on "unruly"

[AbyssalDoom]

I've also been in percussion for 4 years, still goin on 5. I'm gonna be a mandatory snare marcher for softmore year because all the pplz on our tenor/snare lines are graduating. Koolbeenz. I have drumset and french horn experience too.

[Zaliphone]

I used to play violin. After that I played guitar for a while. And now I reside with my bass guitar.

[retrolinkx]

I can play the Piano, Violin and Guitar.

However I can't play them now, due to the fact I've forgotten.

A Capella is fine though...

Well, as an example. One day I was feeling exceptionally bored, so I threw a shoe at the bass drum..... It bounced off of the drum and hit my band director on the head.

[Arjahn]

I play a pretty mean virtual Ocarina.
The bitchez be loving my Song of Storms.

[A Zombie Riot]

Just call it contemporary music and people will call you a genius

[A Zombie Riot]
