in Chit-Chat
Checking to see what everyone's music talents and tastes are!

I'm a jazz junkie. Play bass primarily and keyboard. Got a nasty cramp at a gig last night in the middle of a set from a hard workout hours before

    I can play anything a little, but mostly play guitar or banjo. I sing and write.
    Grew up on Country and Southern Rock.
    I enjoy Blues to Bluegrass, anything with a good rythm but do not care for rap.

    I can play the piano from memory or sometimes by ear but can't read sheet music so I'm pretty much useless

    Hush now, D. That's just silly.

    This. Lots of the best don't/didn't read music. I can, but can't learn by ear worth a darn.

    Singer, here. Symphony chorus & church, mainly. I know enough piano to annoy everyone around me.

    I play double bass in an americana/bluegrass band. I also play guitar, 3 finger style influenced by Mississippi John Hurt. I also play...a little of everything because I'm a music teacher :)

    Haha for pretty much all of pop music , being able to read is optional. Good for you tho!

    Really wish I could play the piano.....just a beginner. Guitar would be next to learn, but my air drumming is awesome! However, I'm pretty proud of my voice. I can sing....that's pretty much it :/

    Self taught guitar about 4 years ago. I write music sometimes but mostly just play and rework songs I like. I like a lot of indie/pop but also rock and country too.

    I can kinda sing lol. I have a keyboard sitting on my desk waiting for me to learn to play.

    Self taught metal guitarist of almost 28yrs now. I was in a pretty talented band called Supremacy somewhat recently comprised of myself (Rhythm/Lead Guitars, Backing Vocals), my best friend (Rhythm/Lead Guitars, Lead Vocals, a tattoo artist (Drums) and his brother (Bass). Sadly the brothers wanted to pursue other interests and moved away.

    Here's our MySpace page with some of our songs, they're not going to be everyone's cup of tea: Supremacy
