Are you a musician?

I'm a guitarist but I only jam with the stereo these days.

It's pretty much the closest I can come to meditating when I play.

On a related note, I play guitar (acoustic, 6 and 7-string electric, and bass), a little mandolin, and a very minimal amount of piano.

Ahhh, well you know, puns are the key to my humor.

I am kinda the same. I started on electric guitar but over the years have really started to lean towards acoustic. I play a little bass because I picked up from my brother a few years back and still remember some piano from when I was a kid.

I started playing acoustic guitar in my late 40's. (It's somewhat painful to write that:)) I'm a fan of bluegrass, "ole-timey", jigs, etc. Can't sing hardly at all.

A lot of pros can't sing, either, but it didn't stop them.

I recall when my older brother picked up an old Spanish guitar that was standing in the corner
and, after "noodling" with it for about 5 minutes, just suddenly rattled off the intro to
Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Well", note perfect..
- without any effort at all..

freaked me out a bit..
guess he's just gifted..

my younger brother Tony, plays brilliant electric guitar
his friend once owned a mobile recording studio, and when
they did a live gig for Aswad once, he was also just "noodling"
in the studio and the band were dead keen to find out who was playing..

- he's pretty impressive..

my son, Marty plays as well - guitar and drums..
