Might I ask

Maybe those who play an instrument, someone can start a thread and people post something they've learnt there? I'd love to do that when i get my lazy bum round to learning a FULL song.
I will most certainly try to get my courage up to share a piano piece for you all
I agree with everything you just said in the above. Hendrix is a miracle worker on the guitar, if I could make love to anything like he does to his guitar I'd be just fine. I mean, look at Rick Allen from Def Leppard. That man has one arm and he's hardcore. So this means you're extremely decent in my book, same taste in music and you're a drummer who plays bass? You have my heart I think

I'm a master with time and patience. Maybe I can be this hot drummer chick, lol. In my dreams maybe

have you ever played the violin in a small space where the sounds comes back to you krista? it doesnt have to be a shower, but the way the walls have tiles seem to make it better. maybe its just my imagination but i love the way that sounds.
there's a violinist named emily wells that composes all of the pieces she plays. because she records herself and the music plays on a loop, she can layer the music. granted she looks really stoned during alot of her performances, it still takes talent i imagine. ill post one of her songs in the music thread
i could only progress so far with the violin because i have an AWFUL sense of rhythm and beat, and the counting thing. thats what made playing with other people so hard to do. i never could get the timing right for more than 10 or 12 measures, seemed like. i still really like to mess around with the violin though. sorry this is so long!

Don't apologize in the least
I'm glad you wrote so much, I enjoy reading the things you post. I've picked up the violin but I'm nothing compared to good on it so that would sound horrible if I tried but I do know exactly what you're talking about. Something about the reverberations back to you makes everything sound so much more beautiful and amplified, like your own studio. It makes perfect sense to me I've heard of her, by the way but I would love for you to post some vids if you would, no matter I bet you're actually extremely talented dear. I do know, I told someone in here earlier that counting and measures are super hard for me to learn sometimes.I'm sure that's not true, you're in a funk which can always throw off your perception of yourself so it's a negative one. Tell me about yourself and I bet I find a million things you're amazing at
I played the drums in elementary school (school band), now I'm teaching myself acoustic guitar and electronic music.
Music is my life... too bad the only way I could make a living with it would be through teaching, but I have zero patience ::
I can play just about anything I pick up, although stringed instruments can be a pain- literally, it hurts my fingers too much. I played flute/piccolo in high school and college, and I have an acoustic guitar that's missing a string I've been too lazy to replace. If I had the money, I would love to buy a lot of different instruments and take lessons. I absolutely love the piano, and have always tinkered around on it- I can read the music, but I probably don't play it the "right" way, I have no idea what to do with the pedals, and my hands aren't exactly cut out for it- my fingers are too short. I took all the theory classes in college, I can play any tune I hear (I don't quite have perfect pitch though, just "relative" pitch, especially if it's diatonic).
But in addition to having no patience, I have no creativity, so creating my own music is out of the question... my attempts in school were awkward at best, although I followed the "rules." Music is still a great escape for me, even though it is frustrating to have the ear for it but lack the skills to do much with it.

You're extremely lucky to be so musically inclined, I'm jealous :
: I'm not sure what it is about the guitar but I have no patience for it. I think it's because that's what everyone plays, not everyone but especially kids now days seem to think if you want to be cool..learn to play the guitar. As for creativity, I have ZERO ability. It's just not in me.
