| | | | I used to gig in the 70's, but left it to go to College, make a career, family, etc. Finally got to the point where I have time to play, but not enough to commit to weekends, etc. Play nightly, take weekly lessons, and learning a lot. I am finding a great deal of satisfaction in personal progress and insight without putting up with the emotional trauma of a band (see most threads under band management). If the right situation comes up, I am happy to play with others, but it is not a priority right now. The computer is a wonderful practice tool- it never argues and agrees with whatever you feel like playing next! |

| | | Count me in. I've been playing with myself for about 25 years  - rockin' to classic rock tunes. One day I would like to play with some other guys and/or gals - I've never come out of the basement. |

| | | | I've been sitting here the past couple of months learning Primus tunes for no other reason than it's fun as hell to play and when i do get to jam with some people I could bust those out and turn some heads. Then it will be back to the computer room here waiting for the next chance to go out. I know some guys that have the space and the equipment and everything but they're some of the most un-motivated slackers I've ever had the displeasure of meeting. |

I hear you my goal is to know every Beatles tune front to back it's kind of cool when I go to Guitar Center and break out Day Tripper and people ask me what band I'm in.

I want in, also can I be #42?

I am now up to 45 Beatle songs in my playlist, it is amazing how many complex subtleties Paul put into his songs- and my appreciation for Ringo's contributions has grown as I listen to how he and Paul really defined the Song. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
