Any musicians here?

I've seen some indications that we have some (besides me) so who are you and what do you play, and links!
I play guitar (badly), bass guitar (also badly) and learning synth (badly, duh it's a Korg MS-20 mini). To add insult to injury I'm a better recording engineer than musician. As a engineer I suck moderately.

    I try to be one! Taught myself to play the guitar a couple years ago. I'm into country music so that basically what I play/sing (surprisingly I can play a few rap songs too, they are fun to break out from time to time), but there's no way I'm posting myself singing on here!

    Wondering what rap songs lend themselves to guitar. I'd like to try em.

    I work as a church musician, cantor & piano, organ if I have to (not particularly comfortable with it). Studied music all my life pretty much. It's one of my primary hobbies. I also play at guitar, bass and ukelele. I can play most brass instruments well enough to get a passable sound out of them. I also sing in a community chorale organization.

    Eminem - love the way you lie; superman
    JayZ - 99 problems

    These two are more R&B I guess
    Drake - We're going home
    R Kelly - ignition remix

    There's a few more I can find our when I get home

    I just played that song last night, actually.

    I don't have a band. I play acoustic guitar and sing, and my buddy plays lead - acoustic or electric. Been doing this for years. We have written some songs and play a slew of covers.

    Here is our cover of Pumped Up Kicks by Foster the People
