Musical instruments!

[BlueLion. 21,491]

I'm pretty damned sure Artinho made this topic a while back, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I was speaking to Stingray about instruments and he said he plays bass. Made me think - what can you bitches play?!

Myself - I'm a guitarist predominantly (mainly rhythm), and I play a little bit of bass. Nothing too complicated. Also a decent drummer. As a kid I played the recorder (who didn't?!?), clarinet and later bass clarinet! I'm a motherfuckin'-one-man-band!

Post videos of you playing/singing, and let's make a TalkChelsea band!

I used to play the piano for a few years back I was 14 .. took exams at the Barbican and everything, but I gave up because I got bored with it.

The guitar I would LOVE to play though.. but I'm amazed at how difficult it is to play one.. we all know practice over time is essential, but if I could play any one of Noel Gallagher's songs, I'd be complete!

I have sung a few times publicly for my College course (Performing Arts ), i have done Word Up, Drugs Don't Work and Last Christmas live. I also got drunk with my friend, who can play guitar which i am so jealous about, and after smoking a lot of cigarettes we did a cover of Wicked Game and uploaded onto YouTube.

[Rmpr 8,977]

[Stingray 9,441]

Bass and guitar as said!

Taking piano classes

I wish I could play the sax though, but my breath is quite short for that

[Stingray 9,441]

Anyway I found some stuff @Alex. Here a song I wrote for our band from a LONG time ago that actually went on radio lol. 2 times I guess lol.

This is more recent - solo project in which I tried something with a drumcoputer and only a bass. No guitars, no nothing. Just Bass (me) and a drumcomputer. Kinda weird lol, but a fun technical exercice.

I can play all of his songs

@Barbara,

yupp its him. Nice you like it, its a wonderfull instrument, maybe its because I've grown up with it but you can play it in various manners and do unbeliveable stuff with it. There is one specific piece of music, which was written by Ali Ekber Cicek, it is in turkish, he was a master of the Tambûr but he passed away two years ago.

Western musicians always wanted to know whom has written this music and how many instruments where involved, but it was actually one man playing one instrument, the were amazed when they heared this fact.

But I love music and instruments of any kind of any country there are different music genres I can't hear I just don't like them, I thin them are accustic rapeing (sorry for that word)... can't stand it.

But generally you can say, I listen to what sounds good and not to what was in or what is driven by a meaning (like hardcore, or House, or Thecon, or german "Schlager")...

Guitar and keyboards/piano. None great but all good enough for me to enjoy. I like fooling around with a lot of instruments though and play things like Ukelele, bass, Banjo, and Harmonica a tiny bit.

[NishC300 1,865]

I can play the Kazoo

[Sidzeret 2,257]

i still have the guitar in my room. Learned some chords from the internet and youtube but haven't practice enough to work out chord combiatoins. I'm working on Time of yor Life by greenday...Hopefully i'll post a video someday.

I used to be able to play the pan (national instrument). I was in a steel orchestra for a little while too
