    Are you a freakin' musician?

    Do you play any instruments?
    Which ones if so?
    Been part of a band? Etc...

    I've been a part of many not-so-serious bands as a vocalist. Unfortunately I can't really sing so I'm picking up the drums now (that's my real passion). My aim is to play 'em side-by-side with school and then hopefully get some sort of career goin'... if I can't I'll fall back on my school stuff. Yeah.

    I play the drums. Some guys want me to join their band but until I get better (been playing for a year and a half only) and get some cases to put the drums in, I decline.

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    Heh, I play the guitar. Been playing for about 3 years now.

    Never been in a serious band though. I've made a song with my friends, but that's just about it.

    I'm a percussionist myself (drums basically). I play in my school band, a Wind Ensemble, and some all-county bands. I've been playing drums for about 6 years now and I'd say I'm pretty good. I play drum set too and I'm pretty good at that also. Haven't been in any "real" bands, but if someone asks, I'll be willing to offer my services.

    What drum set do you have. I have a Tama swingstar. I wanted a rockstar custom with the starcast mounting system but It was too expensive.

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    I've played the piano for a couple of years but then stopped (been way too busy with school). It was fun, but I really wanted to get into playing the guitar or the drums.
    This fantastic Sousuke sig was made by the one and only Lucifus! Thanks man!

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    Bass and guitar, but I'm pretty crap at both (especially at guitar as I've been playing bass more until recently). I don't understand musical theory at all which is probably part of the reason, I just use tabs from the Internet...guitar is a cheap (though expensive by my standards [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] ) vintage les paul copy and the bass is also by vintage, I think its probably a fender squire style copy but I'm not sure...just got a distortion pedal so I'm gonna start playing more often...

    Guitar

    Been in loads of bands. This is the current one

    www.tfgconspiracy.com

    We are kind of lame indie stuff. Id prefer to be in a metal band but every time I try to put one together I just get a bunch of retarded angry 14 year olds auditioning.

    Eh, I have a crappy 500 dollar Groove Percussion set. I replaced it with some decent quality Sabian hi-hats, a Zildjian crash, a nice new Evans head for my snare (Powerstroke series), and I think a Tama bass drum pedal. I was going to get some better stuff...just haven't played set for a while so I haven't bothered.

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    ^ Heh, yep, as far as local prices go they were both amongst the cheapest in the shop...they're probably gonna fall apart any minute now...when I'm a bit better I might save and get a better bass though (5 string preferably - half the bands I listen to these days seem to use them which kinda sucks...)

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    Played piano for a couple of years and the violin for 7 years. After that, I just completely stopped playing music.

    I play drums. check out my band at www.sumary.net

    I just recently replaced a drum machine, so all the recordings dont include me. but if you watch the "live jam video", thats me.

    RE: Are you a freakin' musician?

    I play piano, and bass guitar. I was sort of in a metal band a couple years ago, but our 'practices' never got past random jamming, and we couldn't think up a good band name.
