    I've been a singer my whole life. I was lead vocalist in a cover band for 2 years at local bars/events.

    That was before 3 kids and during college. Man do I miss it so much somedays!

    My microphone is still in my closet...collecting dust. :cry:

    I am a singer and a bass player - same as you - casually, and same as you, lately my guitars are sitting begging to be played.

    I have a Fender Jass Bass - Geddy Lee Signature edition, an Epiphone Emporor II (NOT Joe Pass) hollow body electric, a Del Ray electric, and i'll be honest i can't remember what my acoustic is.

    I played violin/fiddle, mallet percussion, tympani and various Reniassance instruments when i was in college.

    I also used to be a cantor for my church, and was in various choirs in school. Now i sing karaoke...LOL

    I play guitar (and a little bass & drums,) and sing..... Just keep at it, it's like MFP, just keep going and it will work.

    I play double bass (upright bass) professionally in three orchestras. I also play electric bass (I have an Ibanez fretless) and teach general music at a private school.

    I'm a vocalist, was in choir when i was little, moved to musical theater until i was 15 or so then i lost interest. Had a band, played open mic nights etc. Until i was 18, not done much since. Wish i could go back to musical theater.

    I've been playing piano since before I can really remember I sing. I've basically been in multiple choirs (including standard, jazz and swing choir) from 3rd grade up until I quit college. I am currently teaching myself guitar. I just bought myself an S6 Slim Seagull acoustic to learn on.

    Not in a long time. Grew up with the fiddle, played guitar, but wasn't very good.

    I play a mean maraca and tambourine!

    My instrument is my voice......do a lot of wedding/church/funeral stuff.

    And have been singing with a dance band for about 8 years - makes me sad, cuz it looks like we're breaking up. Our saxophone/horn player has nerve damage and can't play like she used to.

    Oh well.............I still sing when I can :heart:

    Jack of all, master of none, currently playing guitar for Priority Orange, Adelaide's least popular grunge rock band.

    Go practice your instrument, it is the only way to improve at!
