NeoConMan Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I can barley play the guitar. Good thing my guitar looks so good. It takes all the attention away from me. You can barely spell. Barley is a grain used in beer and cereals. I too barely play guitar. I rely fully upon the ooohs and aaahs my spectacular gear elicits from any given crowd. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I am actually a classically trained pianist (moved into jazz at the age of 15 or so though). I got accepted to Berklee and Eastman schools of music on piano but didn't go to music school. I play my guitar a lot more than my piano these days though...

I am a Pianist too' date=' I don't get time to practice anymore but use it for composing and playing Bach and Chopin, two of my favourite keyboard writers![/quote'] Well, I'm not the pianist I used to be, that's for sure. I play organ for the church and do some arranging of the choir music these days, but that's about it (Finale is a great program). I love Bach and Chopin too, as well as Mozart and Beethoven. I started playing his Sonatas as age 11 or so but I still hadn't gotten through all of them by the age of 18. One day my piano teacher gave me Gershwin to play and I fell in love with it. I wanted to play in the high school jazz ensemble and that sealed it. I loved, and still do love, classical music but I really loved the freedom when playing jazz. Our jazz instructor treated us like "real" players and I learned a lot from him. For example, he'd let us make a mistake the first time going over a chart. But if we made a mistake anytime after that he told us "get out, you're done for the day." He explained that in the real world you never are allowed to make a mistake a second time because time wasted is money. I always wondered what my life would have been like had I chosen the music path instead of going down the geek path (he he he). But I'm content now listening to great players such as yourself....

Just that you rarely make a typo. It's still possible to spell correctly even while being bat-guano crazy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
